  1. How difficult is it to understand that The Great Purge of 1935 was lead by Stalin and those who wanted an end to the revolutionary course charted by Lenin and Trotsky. How many old bolsheviks were executed after frame up charges of being agents of Hitler? If one is to believe the Soviet government of Stalin than Lenin surrounded himself with fascists who organized a revolution. Then to say we are to ignorant to understand a disciple of Stalin? A revolutionary party where all discussion is shut down with firing squads and replaced with patronage, legal and illegal corruption is nothing more than a protective shell to save cowards on a counter revolutionary course back to capitalism.

  5. Kruschev gave many a heart attack to the crustatins at the 20th Congress where he gave what became a not so secret speech about the excesses of Comrade Joe. Admissions that the great Purges had gone way to far in executing loyal communists and the that Comrade Joe was completely befuddled for three days while Hitler's armies invaded the Soviet Union. Stalin couldn't believe his fascist friend would tear up an agreement.
