What is the most evil man in the world??? I think it is Osama Bin Laden, because he killed so many thousands of people, or maybe Ahbanienajab (I know I didn't spell it right) For how many people he's going to kill.
[quoteAs for the President of Iran, wait and see if he is still in power when Israel declares war on Iran. Everyone knows they will bomb them.[/quote] Do you support war between the two countries?

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME? Where the **** do you get your information. SERIOUSLY tell me where. And if you say Fox we need to have a serious discussion.
Iraq was run by Saddam who was a dictator and did what dictators did. He made a credible threat to the United States and we responded. What the **** are you talking about.
Yo Dawg I heard you don't understand simple sarcasm.

Iraq had much better living standards before 1991 than it does now. It was ranking one of the highest in health care and was very well ranked in other things too.
The US supported Saddam massively until he started to nationalize the oil corporations.
Woah If you look at his letters it shows rather that Stalin actually had no idea that a famine was going on. He certainly didn't order executions of a million farmers. Do you mean the deportations of the kulaks? About 1.2 million were deported yes, but only 70,000 executed.
Stalin knew damn well that there was a famine. You can't honestly believe that the leader of a country had no idea what was going on. That's like saying George Bush never found out about 9/11. It's a sorry excuse to justify Stalin's actions. He called for the "Liquidation of the Kulaks." He made sure that the newspapers were censored about the famine and kicked out all foreign aid agencies to make sure no one knew about it except the elites of the Communist Party.
And what god dam reason would he have for executing whole towns? Thats just ridiculous.
Because he was a sick person. It was ridiculous. But that's Stalin for you.
Drace, I agree with many of your left-wing positions, but you got to stop denying Stalin's atrocities. It's just as bad as Holocaust deniers.
"Letter to Joseph Stalin from Stanislaw Kosior, 1st secretary of the Central committee of the Communist party of Ukraine regarding the course and the perspectives of the sowing campaign in Ukraine. Original document. April 26th, 1932.
There are also isolated cases of starvation, and even whole villages [starving]; however, this is only the result of bungling on the local level, deviations [from the party line], especially in regard of kolkhozes. All rumours about âfamineâ in Ukraine must be unconditionally rejected. The crucial help that was provided for Ukraine will give us the opportunity to eradicate all such outbreaks [of starvation]. "
Comrade Kosior!
You must read attached summaries. Judging by this information, it looks like the Soviet authority has ceased to exist in some areas of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. Can this be true? Is the situation invillages in Ukraine this bad? Where are the operatives of the OGPU [Joint Main Political Directorate], what are they doing?
Could you verify this information and inform the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist party about taken measures.
Sincerely, J. Stalin
Even Robert Conquest, the leading right historian on the topic does not blame Stalin
"In 2003, Dr Conquest wrote to us explaining that he does not hold the view that âStalin purposely inflicted the 1933 famine. No. What I argue is that with resulting famine imminent, he could have prevented it, but put ââSoviet interestââ other than feeding the starving ï¬rstâ"thus consciously abetting itâ - Davies & Wheatcroft in Europe-Asia Studies June 2006, p. 629.
The liquidation of kulaks as a class has very little to do with supporting a famine.
And by Tauger's estimates, the excess death estimates are 2.5 million through the whole of the Soviet Union, while 1-1.5 million in Ukraine.
Drace, I agree with many of your left-wing positions, but you got to stop denying Stalin's atrocities. It's just as bad as Holocaust deniers.
It is much much different then denying the holocaust.
Do you not agree that the US and other western powers have taken extreme measures in propagandist efforts against the Soviet Union and communism? It is rather rational to question their perspective of history. And its not a complete denial that it never happened, but a denial of the high death estimates and it being a genocide.
Conquest himself raised the number to 14 million as the casualties and published a book called "What to do when the Soviets come: a Survivalists handbook" when anti-communist propaganda was much needed.
Because he was a sick person. It was ridiculous. But that's Stalin for you.
That is ridiculous. A leader that kills people for no complete reason at all? Did Stalin have a mental disability I don't know about?
And can you give me some examples of whole towns being executed?
