    Ms. Applebaum is absolutely correct about all the issues in regard to Eastern Europe. She is a fantastic writer and important thinker. I would love to have her as a US president.

    It's not as simple as your intro makes it sound...thank goodness for Ann Applebaum and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn!

    Does targetted repression make Gandhian tactics of passive resistance less effective?

    Glorious in revolt and ruin; squalid and shameful in triumph

    How do u interpret the fact that in the west any russian media is silenced but not the other way round? And what is your take about eastern country, for example Hungary, which have developed antibody against communism dictatorship and which are appalled about the ideology of the politically correct which is forced on the western population from a cold and distant elite class

    She saw what Putin had in store for Ukraine two and a half years ahead of time. Russian propaganda has been working on the Russian people (except state controlled religion and some private capitalism like China does) in the same way the Soviets had groomed them back when they ruled.The big money is government owned, Putin and the Russian Orthodox connected seems to be the only changes.

      I love that you base your "knowledge" on nothing but shameless and ludicrously obvious propaganda from the likes on Anne Applebaum, the woman that's quite busy literally whitewashing Nazis.

    Gulags are hard labor camps. Nazi war criminals were nearly always paid. Nazi war criminals were to stay a max of 10 years, max up to 1955. I ready that every year, starting from about 1946, while Stalin was still alive, about 10,000 Nazi POW prisoners were released every year. Early release was based of severity of crimes committed. Why East Germany was an ally of the Soviet Union, and had equal say on matters, such as POW release. Stalin : Nazi war criminals have relative and friends back in their home villages. I cannot allow death sentences on Nazi prisoner of war. Nazi war criminals will work for any period between 1 year up to a max of 10 years. Stalin said all of them had death in their hands. /there were witnesses still alive. Stalin felt his way forward was the best way forward. Stalin felt the Nazi war criminals were an honest lot. They feely admitted their war crimes, once Stalin declared they will not be given death sentences.

      With Stalin it was his way, no matter best or worst, or the railway.

    what an unappealing person anne applebaum is. in how many wars the "western world" (aka USA) was involved in the last decades? how many do you count for russia? But he, it´s all in the name of democracy, isn´t it? It´s never about money and political geostratigic interests...double standards at its best.
