All it does is cheapen the suffering of the victims of the Hitlers and Stalins of the world. Here in the US, Hitler/Nazi comparisons get thrown around very often but besides the skinheads/neo-nazis, the only ones that trully deserve that label are the feminists or rather the feminazis. ;P
Difference is, besides the fact this guy is an idiot, Una-Unso claims to have partaken in aiding the Islamics in Chechnya, its leadership has been sent to jail and the first politician to meet them after their release was guess who? Yup, Tymoshenko.
Actually, if you look at his party's voting record they support Putin about 50% of the time. Trying to start pogroms and racial wars is not supporting Putin who then has to go back and fix this idiot's mess, such as the letter that his and the communist party's deputies (19 out of 450) put forward to ban Jewish orgs.
I tell you how I see him. His role in Kremlin’s propaganda machine is to play “soft opposition” (artificial). Putin aim is to show the Russian society that “United Russia” is the only reasonable party in Russia. The rest so called “oppositionist” parties represents extreme views and nobody with head in the right place would not vote or support for them.
Let's not forget that the Kremlin killed 15 million Ukrainians from 1921 to 1938 ==
'Kremlin' stands for "fortress". Almost each historical russian town has thier own Kremlin. Novgorod' Kremlin, Kazan' Kremlin, Yaroslavl' Kremlin, Pskov' Kremlin.
And Moscow' Kremlin. It was the staff quaters of Partriarkh was occupied by communists in 1919.
So Kremlin as the place cann't kill anyone. It was commies who did.
Who was those commies. For your surprise in first ever commie goverment of Lenin there was 6 ukranian ministers: Podvoiskii, Lunacharskii, Tsurupa, Antonov-Evseenko. Dibenko, Krilenko.
There founded Ukranian Soviet Republic and ukranian Red army.
So quite much of ukranians participated in building USSR. Why they did it? You try to answer yourself.
By the way I have to admit that quite much of ukaranians fought in rows of White Army too. Together with russians.
Learn real history of Civil war 1917-22 and history of USSR not your limited ukro-nazi version.
Try to answer one simple question.
Why the name of new commie state was 'Soviet Union'. Why not "Russian republic" for example?
If there was red Poland and red China but there was NOT red Russia but Soviet Union? Why that?
Simple question. But hard to answer by those who duped by russo-phobia.
Zhirinovskii is a clown. Enough said. If you 'love" him then you love circus:).
Take him as voice of somebodies or somethings of Russia is just stupidity.
“jb6” posting opinion of neo-nazis to attack Yushchenko. But posting Zhirinovski’s opinion is wrong according to him!
In other thread he blaming Yushchenko that neo-nazis supported him. What a hypocrisy...
Big Guns (Truth on UNA-UNSO)
Vladimir Zhirinovsky should have blown a gasket by now. But, he sure has the gift of rhetoric.
I'd have to check the names mentioned above, but what I know for sure is that for a republic with 75-80% Ukrainian majority, Ukrainians were under-represented in the party. The first Communist Congresses of the Comm. Party of Ukraine had ethnic Ukrainians at single digits percentage of the Party's composition. At the best of times Ukrainians were 50-60% of the republic's party.
So quite much of ukranians participated in building USSR. Why they did it? You try to answer yourself.
Communists of Ukraine couldn't succeed by themselves- they were to weak, so they invited Russian communists and the glorious Red Army. Russian communists brought that order to Ukraine.
..Why the name of new commie state was 'Soviet Union'. Why not "Russian republic" for example?
In the early days of USSR that was what Stalin was pushing for, unitary rather than federal type, but considering that Ukraine had already separated from Russia with declaration of the Ukr. Nat'l Republic in 1917 and USSR being the "most democratic state" which allocated some freedoms to the national minorities, the republics came to be.
If there was red Poland and red China but there was NOT red Russia but Soviet Union? Why that?
I might call myself "Ruler of the Universe Who Is Hung Like a Horse", but it barely reflects the reality. SU was not a state with republics who were equal, so they might as well call it "Russia".
That too, but mostly is because he's doing a service- he's presenting what Russians really think of Ukrainians, behind the diplomatic facade and the "brothers"-talk. You tell me, what do you think of Ukraine being independent?
My Russian wife says Zhirinovsky is crazy. Attempting to link him to Putin one might as well link Bush to David Duke. BTW, Duke and Zhirinovsky met together and share some of the same views.
"So Kremlin as the place cann't kill anyone. It was commies who did. "
The Kremlin has its own Russian culture of ruthless depotism - "One life - One Kopec" is a very old Russian saying.
It goes back to the czars tru the revolution and right up to Putin who will risk submariners and school children and theater hostages just so that the govt is not embarassed.
"Zero sure knows how to hurt people, calling a Ukranian
a Bandarist is more like a badge of honor."
How many Russian divisions fought the Fascists and Commnists simultaneously.
The answer is none and we have to look at Gen Paton to find a like minded hero.
"Hmmm, maybe I should use Al Sharpton or David Duke"
How dare you compare them to your Russian legislature.
The problem is that he is accepted and tolerated by the govt.
"Now let's look at the Russians. LDPR is the 3rd largest party with 7.78% of seats. 0.2 percent versus 7.78 percent- you decide which is more influential."
And they have the nerve to compare a local yokel like Sharpton who has no offical standing with this very powerful faction of the Russian Govt.
