A bio of Ehrenburg here says he was in Paris from 1925 to 1945 working as an editor for Soviet newspapers. That can't be true, not after the occupation. A chapter from Rubenstein's "Tangled Loyalties" is on line here.

It is interesting to see this problem with the dates. This proves again how shoddy some sources can be. Gone are the days we can blindly believe everything that is written.

The Harvard apologist who wrote the 1996 Tangled Loyalties places Ehrenburg in Paris in 1940. If this is true, surely Ehrenburg could have escaped Stalin had he so wished.
To claim that Ehrenburg was only naively confused about Stalin appears to be a colossal whitewash. The mere fact he was given such major Soviet awards indicates he was not passive in his support for this murderous regime.

These issues are indications that the NYT and others still harbor disloyalty toward our country.
