Now you have no excuse.

Is there something like this, in our futures..?

I sure hope not.

An exceptional movie “Katyn” given to my husband when he was in Poland for work.

Indeed. Highly recommended.

Another film regarding how truly brutal the Soviets were is the Chekist.

The Chekist

Never heard about the massacre until I watched the 2007 movie “Katyn” that I got from Netflix. I highly recommend it.

!! I knew about the Ukrainian massacre but did NOT know about this one. And this is WHY the FBI under Hoover was so obsessed with communist infiltration in the US government. THESE are the type of people that were our so called allies in WWII. Many fault Churchill for being too obsessed with eliminating Communist partisan fighting groups nearing the end of WWII, but I consider him forward thinking.

Yes and the media in the 30s fawned over Stalin, tried to paint Ayn Rand as a kook, and in many instances provided cover for their atrocities.

Roosevelt was a tyrant plain and simple. At least Truman was mostly an idiot who honestly didn’t believe the stories of communist infiltration, but Roosevelt damn well knew it.

Yes I just read about Dexter White and the IMF. I bet not too many Democrats ever want to talk about the Venona papers.

Members of various counter-revolutionary spy and sabotage organizations, former landowners, factory owners, former Polish Army officers, government officials, and fugitives – [are] to be considered in a special manner with the obligatory sentence of capital punishment – shooting.

Bill Ayers was fine with 25 million Americans dying to create his communist utopia. This is what he was talking about.

I have to reserve an opinion due to the manipulation of history by the far left.


I may be misunderstanding you. Sorry, if so.

The original story was that the Nazis did the Katyn murdering.

Then history was ‘revised’ to point out the Soviets did it.

Why would the far left exonerate the Nazis and blame Stalin? The far left historians are commies, not Nazis.

I hope that helps with your reservations.
