The Russian Federation should convene a public inquiry into the Stalin era purges and crimes. The people of RF need to know why monsters like Stalin, Beria, Ruhadze, and their NKVDs were permitted to gain control of USSR and wreck such terrible horror and misery upon the people. Who were the evil people and what were the peculiarities in the USSR political system that permitted this evil to exist? Why didn't the people of Russia stop Stalin and his monsters? Who were the people that assisted Stalin and his Georgian thugs to carry out such crimes? No one responsible for these crimes must be spared exposure because of political sensitivities or expediency. The RF must delve into these questions, and others, to find honest answers. Only through these answers can the people of the Russian Federation be assured that such monstrosities will never again be permitted to occur. This subject should be taught throughout the Russian school system.

To Kihnu - thank God for another voice begging for Truth. If the Russian people cannot face u to the Horror of those monstrous people who seemed to love to kill, then how can they put the Horror to rest? I read recently that Stalin used to throw as many as ten thousand 10,000 men into the battle for Stalingrad in the evening and there would be 500 left by morning. It did not bother him at all - after all, they were Christian Russians - and I believe that he and his kind liked nothing better than to kill Russian Christians. It is said that he would have the NKVD drive unarmed Ukrainians against the German guns. One wonders whether he and Hitler both just loved killing for the sake of killing. Also, unless the Russian People, whom I admire enormously, do not find the moral courage to face up to what was done in their name Russia will not be able to rest at peace with her neighbours. It seems it is not just the Poles who hate Russia for Katyn, as an example. I want to see Russia free and strong without the Rothschild banksters on their backs and with a bulwark of strong and friendly neighbours. Those who ruled Russia for seventy years must be brought to Justice, even if they are dead. How on Earth is the World to be free of such criminals unless we all face the facts and the Truth.
