A film every supporter or fellow traveler of the totalitarian socialist ideology should be forced to watch over and over again until the image of rotting corpses so permeates their psyches that they will never again consider socialism a viable form of government.

We need to elevate the predations of socialism to the same level of historical recognition -- and outrage -- that the Jewish Holocaust inspires. The Socialist Holocaust claimed more lives, and even today is suggested as a workable political theory.

Nazism died with Hitler. Socialism survived Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot. It is by far the more toxic of the two.

Actually, the word I wanted instead of "toxic" was "virulent." Socialism seems to be a monster born of hope, and since hope can never be killed, it can't either.

I wish it were so, but I fear it lives on in some of the Islamic terrorist groups. Saddam also had significant Nazi influences. The Mufti of Jerusalem, a SS General of all things, was a problem the Allies punted to the future whose legacy has returned to haunt us.
