Although the video is 85 minutes long it is well worth your time especailly with regards to the issue of civilain disarmament and the connections between the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (National Socialist German Workers Party) and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Both were on the left, despite what the national socialist left in this country would like to deny.

The one hour and 24 minute version was refusing to work today so I’ll start with part one and go on up.
By the way, I have BACKSTAGE AT THE KIROV which was produced by Armand Hammer. Of course the beauty of Russian ballet precedes communism but in the film the ballerinas are seen on stage, backstage, practicing in the studio, and on the wide streets of Leningrad but not in their apartments and not shopping. That would have been difficult to show without their situation looking quite poor compared to the West.

Well they couldnt very well have shown how bad things are in their workers paradise now could they?
That reminds of an old soviet union joke: An American was showing his friend from the USSR his home. Going through the living room, dinning room, kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms.
His soviet friend said that in Russia they have the very same thing only its all one room.

Yes, but were trying to stop the real life version - this is one movie that DOES NOT need a Sequel.
BTW, keep in mind that Putin is a former? Chekist the same as the NKVD thugs mentioned in the film.

Just saw it last night. Griping, riveting history of communism in all its evil. Interesting about the SS NKVD relationship before Barbarossa. How many millions killed? I guess we'll never know. Kept me up last night thinking about it but a definite must see. Socialism kills! When are Americans going to wake up? I wish all kids in high school would see this.
One of the quotes I remember, paraphrasing: "In every country where socialism/communism is instituted, 10% of the population ends up getting killed, whether it's USSR, Poland, Nicaragua, Cuba or Venezuela" Current US population is 313.9 million (2012). That's 31.4 million Americans.
Why does America seem hell bent on rushing to socialism?

Because he thinks it is the other guys that will be killed, not them. In china, all the educational elite were sent to the farms to scoop pig shit.
