Pavel, the Berlin Wall was put up for what reason? PostWar Eastern Europe was a nightmare for eastern europeans.. first under the boot of the nazi's, then the communists. Your esteemed government was directly involved WITH the Nazi's in their conquest of Poland and most of eastern Europe before Hitler turned on you..
Post War, your troops slammed down the Latvain and Estonian anti-communist democratic movement, installed puppet governments in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, Poland, East Germany.. While we pitched in with the Marshall Plan to rebuild a free western europe, your government enslaved the people of the east.
As for your 'american bayonets' in Italy.. c'mon. If you mean we stopped a communist coup attempt to seize control of the Italian government, that I can believe.. but the people of Italy have had their own government, post war to present. It was never an 'american puppet republic'.. the only 'puppet republics' in europe were soviet sattellite states, held in your sphere of influence by force.
Yes, our government is guilty of supplying partisans in soviet bloc states.. just as yours promoted and supplied communist partisans in Central America, Africa and Asia.
Panama is Panamanian my friend. Not the happiest history.. but those folks suffered far less than the Hungarians did. As for the invasion.. Noriega overthrew an elected government and then had the very poor sense to declare war on us, attacked americans, killed embassy and canal zone troops.. So we kicked his ass, tried him convicted him and stuck him in prison. Then we gave the country back to the elected government.
Fact is, on the world stage, you guys failed. Totally. Your empire imploded.. it collapsed, the vaunted 'revolution' failed, the walls came down.
Yah lost. You had nearly 2/3 of the world.. now you got bubkis. Nada. Zip. Nothin.
And there's a McDonalds in Pushkin Square... the worlds LARGEST, busiest McDonalds, with 27 cash registers and a 70 foot long order counter.
When is it gonna sink in Comrade.. when you gonna wake up and look around, see the wreckage you guys made of Eastern Europe and take responsibility.. when are yah gonna say 'this was evil.. we were wrong. This should never happen again..'
Instead, you speak of false glory, call stalin a hero of mother russia.. when you gonna realize you were duped? Lied to? Mislead? Screwed, like everybody else that evil system touched?
When?
