Thank you, Eric Margolis! You have written often about Stalin and Soviet Russia. The Russian people must learn the truth about their past as "liberators".

Sure, Russia defeated the Nazis, but taken from a contemporary perspective, there is somewhat of an irony to this story - the most worrying being that today fully 30% of Russian people wish to drastically curb all limits on Jewish business and social and religious activities in Russian cities, and that Nazism as a political movement is gaining a very strong foothold in Russia. And Putin is doing sweet nothing about it...

unfortunately the russian people do not have a culture of striving together .... this also gives putin flexibility for his future actions ..... at home and in his shrinking abroad .... but compromises will be made so the oil flows and the oligorchs collect

Britain and the US did not "choose" to become Stalin's ally. That occured by default when Hitler launched a surprise attack on his erstwhile ally, Stalin.

Mr. Margolis, has anybody ever told you that you are full of %@!#$& If not, I'm telling you now.

Eric Margolis is one of the most informed and interesting columnists that I have ever read. Few have the courage and intelligence to write as he does and for this he has been bashed by both commies and American imperialists in recent years.

Eric Margolis raises points for which most politically-correct popular tabloids would shoot their messengers. Let him speak his mind whilst he still has the freedom to do so-it may not last as long as you think (Orwellianism has well and truly made its home in North America.)
