According to former Russian Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin, now Russian ambassador to Ukraine, Georgia is more to blame for the Soviet genocide against Ukrainians than Russia. Chernomyrdin told journalists, "If we speak about terror in the times of the U.S.S.R., as a result of that, the number of Russians killed was far greater than that of Ukrainians. We still cannot answer to our people for that. If anyone is to receive claims, address them to Georgia, the 'father of nations' Joseph Stalin was from that country." During the U.S.S.R.'s 1932-1933 collectivization drive, an estimated 5 million to 7 million Ukrainians in the "bread basket" of the U.S.S.R. perished during a famine deliberately instituted by Stalin.

I guess we are also supposed to forget how Georgian troops were fighting alongside Americans in Iraq, while the Russians were actively helping Saddam kill our soldiers.
And therefore Germany isn't responsible for the Holocaust, because Hitler was Austrian.
Gruzja information ping I do not want write Thank you
And after Stalin all the USSR leaders were from the Ukraine until Gorbachev.
Yeah...the Bulldogs were kinda hard on the Crimson Tide, too...
Never mind Stalin built tons of industry in Georgia and then shipped resources upto 5,000km to feed that industry. Never mind Georgians didn't pay taxes like the rest. Never mind that under Stalin, Tbilisi's 700 year old Armenian cemetary was stripped of tombstones that were then used for paving stones and can still be seen today in places where the asphalt has worn off (about everywhere).
Georgian troops were fighting alongside Americans in Iraq, while the Russians were actively helping Saddam kill our soldiers.
Another typical lie of yours. First, the Russians never actively helped Saddam kill American troops and during the invasion, when Saddam was in power, there were no Georgian troops taking part in the fighting.
Never mind that Georgia takes $100 million in US military aid to keep Pankisi from being an Al Quida training grounds and does nothing about it. The dumb Jihadies killed in Chechnya almost all have their Georgian stamped entry visas since Tbilisi is the gate house to Islamic Jihad in the Caucuses. Never mind that Baseyov officially announced that he is allied to Saakashvili who was silent and did not deny it.
By the way, at the rate of $100 million a year for a nation of 5 million for military aid alone and another $100+ million in other aid and Saakashvili admitted publically that for the first year he and his drew salaries from Soros organizations alone.
Never mind the fact that Stalin sided with the Russian Bolsheviks when they invaded and conquered Georgia, changed his name to a Russian name and exiled hundreds of thousands of Georgians to Siberia.===
Bolshevicks was international mostly non-russian citizens of Russian Empire. Russians were between bolshevicks but minority.
Between leadership of bolshevicks: Lenin-chuvashian, Stalin- georgian, Trotskii (the father - founder of Red Army) - jew, Kamenev- jew, Zinoviev -jew, Sveldlov- jew, Lunacharskii- ukranian, Podvoiskii - ukranian, Dzerzhinskii (the father-founder of CheKa-OGPU-NKWD) - polack. It is members of Lenin goverment.
And Russia repays the greatest slaughterer of Russians ever by erecting monuments to him.
That must be where soros got his crappy idea for his "open society" organization.
Look, I cannot stand FDR or Truman for their SOCIALISTIC politics. However, for their efforts in WWII... I would say "yes" to a monument to them.
I don't think very many Americans would be too pleased with a monument to Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt, especially one depicting the cowardly betrayal of eastern Europe at Yalta which condemned millions to enslavement behind the iron curtain.
And lets not forget that Roosovelt and Churchill are also on that monument. I just love how leave out key details as your modus operandi.
You sound just like those NYorkers who scream for the South to tear down any statues to Lee or Jackson or Stewart.
Are you actually comparing Robert E. Lee with Joseph Stalin?
No, silly, I'm comparing your answer and mindset to the ACLU and NAACP. They're a much better fit.
I'm sure the ACLU is on your side on the question of erecting monuments to Stalin.
Nope, you see, just like the ACLU, you like revising history to fit your current agenda. You two are soul mates.
