The worst mistake of our time was not having Nuremberg-style trials for the Communists following the collapse of the Soviet empire. Instead, the communists have been given a free pass to continue their brazen criminality in the light of day among the free people of the world. Sad.
Would the American people have believed the truth about communists? They believe Edward R. Murrow instead of McCarthy. The American people have a love affair with socialism because they are looking for “free things”.
I could not agree more!! We needed to have de-communization the way we had de-nazification.
We almost did with the McCarthy hearings.
What the left never, ever will admit is that McCarthy was right. The State Department,and a big chunk of the Federal Government were infested with fellow travelers and outright spies for Soviet Russia.
This is yet another New York Times piece of disinformation.
Always remember when reading the Times that they still have Walter Duranty's Pulitzer on display. The man who helped cover up the Ukrainian starvation by Stalin.
