Stalin Returns To The Moscow Metro

TEXT SIZE - +
Josef Stalin’s name and image once graced the walls of the Moscow metro, but they disappeared during the era of de-Stalinization in the 1950s. Now, months before the 130th anniversary of his birth, Stalin is reappearing underground -- just as his reputation is slowly being restored throughout Russia.

Some individuals did once great things,
But we all are not sinless - even Kings.
For many reasons many often prayed:
"We have new King! Smear the dead!
An opportunity our own crimes to pin."

Good if justice is prevailing for Stalin,
But I affraid that Russia doing it again,
They lied he was a despot - for a gain:
"Let say Stalin was Great, let's wilding!
Russia was always Despot, it is Great!"

1. Stalin made great contribution to the World, allerting and helping save Humanity from genocide and enslavement by nazi Germany, inspired allience with USA and Great Britain and lead USSR to victory.

2. Stalin made great contribution to the nations in Euro-Asia, helping to liberate them and to re-insure their national integrity.

3. Stalin made Great contribution to the CIS nations, including Russia, helping transform Lenin's dictatorship, Red Terror and missery into democratic assembly of independent nations and national autonomies with three branches of elected governments, each devided into two houses, by nationality and by population, temporary united as USSR for time of WW2.

4. It was, thought, a dual leadership in former USSR:
Russian Chauvinistic pogromers still controlled minds of about half of population of ethnic Russians and staffed by ethnic Russian government of USSR and Russia, specially bureaucracy, KGB and Army.
They were plotting and carried out secret pogroms sinchronized with Hitler against Jews, Poles, Georgians and many other non Russians and they lead Germans to walls of Moscow in 1941, destroyed non-Russian military units at the end of WW2, put Stalin under house arrest in 1947 and refused to return USSR back to Common Welth of Independent States.
On another hand, Parliament of nations, lead by Stalin, and about half of ethnic Russians were building democracy, industrializing and preparing for unavoidable war.

5. That dual leadership had only two ways out in mind of Russians - CIS or bloody Russian Empire, fortified by quislings-slaves of pseudo-communist nazi Babilon.
Because Russia usurped to the later, they had to kill and to smear Stalin by outrageous lies, abolish Parliament of Nations and invade Euro-Asia from Hungary and Georgia through Checks and Afghanistan, that ended in genocide by Russia and transformation of USSR into CIS with some of the reppublics restoring their traditional hystoric independence in bigger way.

6. Many Russians would like to reabilitate Stalin.
It would be only just.
But I am affraid that it is the old Russian Chauvinistic pogromers that trying to use imaginary Stalin for their own gains - to justify and to bloody even more their neighborhood and Russia by the caricature on Stalin they themself painted by their own sick despotic Russian minds.

Konstantin.
