And, many would never associate Iraq with Communism. I did not until the full tale of the torture and oppression has been revealed (or much more of it) after we have done this wonderful work of liberation of these people!!! Yet, we know, with the help of the old Soviet Communists (who are part of the "new" Russia in a big way) - that the Iraqi Secret Police and system of torture, imprisonment, and murder was part of the SAME SYSTEM as what gave Pastor Wurmbrand his scars and his testimony.
AND MANY PEOPLE WILL NOT GO TO THE LINKED STORY TO READ IT ALL - so I tried to highlight the part about the coddling of Communist tormentors by Americans (especially, but not solely, the Democrats in this country).
He asked not for their suffering to end but for our country to no longer deal with the Communists if we refuse to acknowledge or try to connect with those who are suffering!!!
Again, apologies. Did this in the time I had.
I'm sure many would not. But the name of the party headed by Saddam (in Iraq, in Syria it's headed by Assad) is the "Baath Socialist Party". They both took their inspiration from the Soviet Socialists and the National Socialists of Germany, although in practice were more like Uncle Joe Stalin's minons than Herr Hitler's.
