"If this story is true, would the liberals consider these atrocities to be sufficient reason for the US to take military action against North Korea?"

When it was first published in France in 1997, Le livre noir du Communisme touched off a storm of controversy that continues to rage today. Even some of his contributors shied away from chief editor Stéphane Courtois's conclusion that Communism, in all its many forms, was morally no better than Nazism; the two totalitarian systems, Courtois argued, were far better at killing than at governing, as the world learned to its sorrow.

Communism did kill, Courtois and his fellow historians demonstrate, with ruthless efficiency: 25 million in Russia during the Bolshevik and Stalinist eras, perhaps 65 million in China under the eyes of Mao Zedong, 2 million in Cambodia, millions more Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America--an astonishingly high toll of victims. This freely expressed penchant for homicide, Courtois maintains, was no accident, but an integral trait of a philosophy, and a practical politics, that promised to erase class distinctions by erasing classes and the living humans that populated them. Courtois and his contributors document Communism's crimes in numbing detail, moving from country to country, revolution to revolution. The figures they offer will likely provoke argument, if not among cliometricians then among the ideologically inclined. So, too, will Courtois's suggestion that those who hold Lenin, Trotsky, and Ho Chi Minh in anything other than contempt are dupes, witting or not, of a murderous school of thought--one that, while in retreat around the world, still has many adherents. A thought-provoking work of history and social criticism, The Black Book of Communism fully merits the broadest possible readership and discussion. --Gregory McNamee

I don't know what I'm more disgusted with: what Kim Jong is doing to his people, or that we aren't doing anything about it....

At least we need to stop pretending it isn't happening.

Madeline Albright toasting Kim Jong Il.

Re #24

War crime is an inaccurate description. It is the "crime against humanity."

Perhaps because the Korean War never ended- it still goes on, albeit at a pace so slow that most of the civilian population on our side cannot recognize the fact.

I'd like to see him "toasted" the way that she toasted Waco

I do remember that the war is still technically going but the crazy guy in charge now, wasn't during the 1950-53 time period. I agree, it is a crime against humanity.

I still wonder why we don't go after some other countries, such as China, Cuba, etc.

I think you're thinking of Janet Reno...
