Stiff Right Jab: Politically Correct Butchers of the 20th Century

We want a strong, secure, sovereign America. We want justice for the crimes perpetrated against citizens of the United States and their property. And we are fully behind President Bush when he does and says the right things. Much of what he said last Thursday evening was right. Not all.

One concern - political correctness. Bush's rousing call to arms, which literally made us stand up and cheer, was tempered with a disturbing political insight. He listed the Twentieth Century´s top 3 mass-murderers as follows: nazism, fascism, and totalitarianism.

To our dismay, "the speech of the century," this striking shot across the bow of terrorism lays the charge of homicide on those "ideologies" which Americans have been trained to believe are right wing, thus, failing to lay a blow at the savage, sordid leftist ideology whose record for mass murder; whose hatred of American values, and whose love of and support for terrorism, dwarfs and fuels all others. We speak of Communism and Communists, of Russia, China, Cuba, and their sort. Bush didn't.

So lets set the record straight.

* Nearly 21 million people, an estimated 5.3 million of whom were Jews, were killed by the Nazi/Fascists of the Third Reich. That was horrible.

* But, it was in Soviet Russia and its despot allies that perfected democide (death by government in "peacetime"). Irving Louis Horowitz notes in his foreword to University of Hawaii researcher, R. J. Rummel's, "Death by Government," that "of the two supreme systemic horrors of the century, the communist regimes hold a measurable edge over the fascist regimes in their life-taking propensities."

How big of an edge?

* By 1987, there were 15 states which killed at least one million of their own during "peacetime" -- reaping a grand total slaughtered by mostly leftist killers, somewhere between 170 million and 360 million people. That is, 5 to 18 times the amount murdered by fascism.

Among the mass liquidators from the Communist Camp, the top three - alone - may have claimed as many as 169 million lives.

* Soviet Russia murdered from 39.5 million, the conservative figure - to just under 62 million people, Rummel's research figure.

* Red China murdered anywhere from 45 million, on the low end -, to 80 million, China's System Reform Institute estimate - to 103 million people, Rummel's high end deduction.

* Khmer Rouge-dominated Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos, butchered 2.3 million, the low sum - to over 4 million, the higher total.

How could Communism be overlooked?

The Mystery Unfolds

The answer seems clear. The Bush Administration is sending out feelers relative to the enlistment of Russia, and perhaps China, as an "ally" in "the world's" war against terrorism - and the Establishment press is drumming up support.

Suddenly, a national disaster has become a golden opportunity to forge a "tighter" alliance with Russia, featuring joint military action in Afghanistan, and audaciously: aid, technology, and international support for Russian suppression of Chechnya, and, perhaps, Georgia - who dares to aid Chechen refugees. If all goes according to plan, we may see the US helping re-unite the old Soviet Union in the name of fighting terrorism.

History, You May Have Missed - Terrorizing Women, Children & Refugees

We should be outraged by the suggestion. Have we forgotten the fairly recent history of Russian terrorist atrocities in Afghanistan? Is so, here's a reminder.

1. Robert James Bidinotto reported in the newsletter, On Principle, December 10, 1984, as to Soviet "gifts" to Afghan children:

"They look like toys.

"They lie on the ground where they are scattered by the helicopters: colorfully painted pens, birds, butterflies, wagons [dolls, toy trucks, and watches]. And when the children touch the toys, they explode. The explosions are not powerful enough to kill in most cases -- just powerful enough to maim . . ."

Those who live, wrote John Barron in Readers Digest, have their hands and feet blown away.

2. And who made the toys? Baron interviewed one child who was trained at age 9 by Russian Communists to make and temptingly place the toys in the fields, in order to kill his friends. Thousands of others children were sent to Soviet re-education camps, so as to come back to Afghanistan as trained revolutionaries.

3. Or how about starvation and migration terrorism? In an article entitled "Changes in Soviet Strategy" in the Free Afghanistan Report, September 1985, it notes: "Soviet destruction of the food system and the very ecology and interdiction of supply caravans from Pakistan contribute to "migratory genocide" -- the flight of refugees to neighboring countries, pursued, strafed and bombed all the way by gunships and Migs . . ."

Similarly today, Russia continues to oppose UN relief efforts for Chechen refugees - that's 450,000 men, women, and children modern Russia ruthlessly drove from their homes.

4. One 1986 report on Afghanistan read: "In three small villages near Qandahar, last year, the Soviets killed close to 350 women and children in retaliation for a Mujahidin attack in the vicinity. After slitting the throats of children, disemboweling pregnant women, raping, shooting and mutilating others, the Russians poured a substance on the bodies which caused instant decomposition."

Has Russia Really Changed?

Are we gullible enough to believe that the most blood thirsty, power hungry regime in history, the Soviet Union and its allies, simply laid down, played dead, and converted to Capitalism and Christianity?

In "New Lies for Old," Anatoliy Golitsyn, an ex-KGB agent who specialized in the counter-intelligence field, forecast "the introduction of false liberalization in Eastern Europe and, probably, in the Soviet Union." He predicted, "[the] demolition of the Berlin Wall might even be contemplated" -- five years before the Wall came down. According to Golitsyn, the plan was in the works, and known to all Communist countries, as long ago as 1958.

Even Gorbachev admitted the true nature of the "change." In his work: "Perestroika" (restructuring):

"There are different interpretations of Perestroika in the West, including the United States. There is the view that it has been necessitated by the disastrous state of the Soviet economy and that it signifies disenchantment with socialism and a crisis for its ideals and ultimate goals. Nothing could be further from the truth . . . "

"I stress once again: Perestroika is not some kind of illumination or revelation [it was old hat]. To restructure our life means to understand the objective necessity for renovation and acceleration . . . The essence of Perestroika likes in the fact that it unites socialism with democracy (self criticism/feedback) and revives the Leninist concept of socialist construction both in theory and practice."

Gorbachev's interest simply was to return to the more flexible Leninist agenda in order to promote communist efficiency, modernize the Russian military, improve Russia's infrastructure, push for international disarmament, strengthen pre-existing socialist alliances, and to work toward the establishment of an international socialist order under the United Nations.

The results. Thanks to the West's media induced perception of the "fall" of Communism, a far great penetration of Western Intelligence, and a far wider, far more dangerous spread of its KGB laden international criminal network (the Russian Mafia) has occurred. No significant country on the globe is without their influence. And the American aid continues to flow . . .

Lenin & Marx Taught Terrorism

Finally, Gorbachev's insistence that Russia turn back the clock to Lenin, is telling, regarding the issue at hand. Lenin was a terrorist. Read it for yourself. Said Lenin:

"The scientific concept of dictatorship means nothing else but this -- Power without limit, resting directly upon force, restrained by no laws, absolutely unrestrained by rules."

And again:

"Contempt for death must spread among the masses, and thus shall ensure victory. The ruthless extermination of the enemy will be their task."

In 1956, Khrushchev, before the 20th Party Congress, added:

"The questioning of Stalin's terror, in turn, may lead to the questioning of terror in general. But Bolshevism believes in the use of terror. Lenin held that no one was worthy of the name Communist who did not believe in terror...."

Even Marx taught it.

"Wherever the oppressors resist, they must be slaughtered."

Bottom line, Communism is nothing more, nothing less than mass murder and terror.

An Afterthought

The January 13th, 1998, Moscow Times reported Josef Stalin's grandson — has been appointed the head of Georgia's 50,000-member Stalin Society. And what is his agenda? To overthrow the "bourgeois" . . . liquidate "enemies of the people" and "capitalist blood-suckers," restore power to the "working people," and reconstitute the Soviet Union "within 1985 borders."

Ready to join hands with the Russians in their holy cause? We aren't.
