the entire population of the SU was <300M just before the fall... the only way you could get something like 126M is if you just count everyone that died of old age or ww2...
so i guess the source must be the victims of communism foundation.
Even better is that those numbers include non-births. Like they're using the same logic that anti-abortion nuts use.
When a western nation has stabilizing birth rates it's a sign of progress, but when the soviet's went through the same process, every reduction in birthrate was extrapolated over it's whole history as "victims".
