>> If the German police erected a statue of Adolph that would be very big news

His name was Adolf, not Adolph.

The analogy doesn't work. Everybody knows who Hitler was, but hardly anyone remembers Felix Dzerzhinsky. So who cares about a statue in his memory? Nobody. It's not news.

A moonbat editorial posing as news.

You mean I spelled it incorrectly.

Everybody knows who Hitler was, but hardly anyone remembers Felix Dzerzhinsky.

So in your view if the German police erected a statue of Himmler that would be quite all right...and signify nothing of importance.

If your screenname is Twit, you're certainly living up to it now.

Well, I guess all those red carnations just magically appeared at the base of the statue.

The point is that the folks who resurrected his likeness are people of some authority; people with some power. If that doesn't give you pause, then you're on better drugs than I am.

Also from the article:

"...many Russians applauded President Vladimir V. Putin this year when he declared that the collapse of the Soviet Union was 'the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.'"

No, I'm not concerned... not at all...
