![]() I'm sitting here watching Dr. Zhivago again. Remember that the Communist Party in Russia was started by people who wanted to do good and the best for everyone (doing the whole Robin Hood thing). Good intentitions are clearly not sufficient. -robert Unfortunately, historical fact do not bear out that hollywood fantasy... Lenin, Trostky, et. al., caused and led a civil war that killed and/or starved millions - including murdering the Romanovs right down to helpless children - so they could be in power, and Stalin was a thug who murdered his way to power, and then murdered tens of millions of Russians to keep that power ... Good intentions were never an issue... denny |

Absolute power always corrupts but millions of Russians didn't support the reds because they wanted Trostky to be powerful. They honestly believed in the left-wing agenda, that society should elevate the poorest on the backs of the richest and that taking property is ok in the name of the good of the masses. Those intentions were good and those people didn't know any better. I'm not sure what today's left- wingers excuse is though (perhaps they missed history). -Robert |
