Jeffrey Goldberg passing along this line from the obituary of Lana Peters, a/k/a Svetlana Stalina, a/k/a Svetlana Alliluyeva, the daughter of Josef Stalin who defected to the West many years ago and passed away this weekend at her home in Wisconsin:

In her memoirs she told of how Stalin had sent her first love, a Jewish filmmaker, to Siberia for 10 years.

One shudders to think what he would’ve done to an attorney.
