Dear Newswatch Magazine Listeners/Readers:
D imitry Manuilski, head of Lenin's Military School in Moscow, stated in 1930 that Russia was not powerful enough to attack the United States at that time. However, he said that war between Capitalism and Socialism was inevitable. He gave the PLAN of waiting until Russia or Communism was equal to or more powerful than the United States, then they would feign - pretend - weakness while making unheard of concessions. The Berlin Wall came tumbling down. East and West Germany merged into one nation again. The West would disarm. Apparently, the Union of Socialist Republics collapsed, and each nation became independent. But are these really independent nations? Let's investigate WHY the media and the federal government keep repeating that Communism is dead!
After the supposed fall of the Soviet Union, International Currency Review published a list of the leaders of the so-called independent republics. The list revealed:
Azerbaijan: KGB General Gaidar Aliyev, former Communist Party First Secretary.
Armenia: Levon Ter-Petrosyan, KGB-controlled nationalist leader.
Belarus: Aleksandr Lukashenko and Vyacheslav Kebic, Communist Party Soviet Union Central Committee members, opposed to the USSR breakup.
Estonia: Lennart Meri - assuming things are exactly as they appear, Meri is the only genuine non-communist leader of a former Soviet republic.
Georgia: MVD General Eduard Shevarnadze, USSR Politburo member under Gorbachev, Georgian Communist Party First Secretary, and non-voting member of Brezhnev's Politburo.
Kazakhstan: Nursultan Nazrbayev, USSR Politburo member under Gorbachev, Kazakh Communist Party First Secretary, and President of Kazakhstan S.S.R. Minister under Gorbachev.
Kyrgyzstan: Asar Akayev and Apas Dzhumagulov, Kyrgyzstan Communist Party Central Committee member and Premier of the Krgyzstan S.S.R. respectively.
Latvia: Valdis Birkavs and Anatolijis Gorbunovs, Communist Party Secretary and Latvian Communist Party Secretary for ideology.
Lithuania: Algirdas Brazauskas, First Secretary of the Lithuanian Communist Party.
Moldova: Mircea Snegur. Communist Party Soviet Union Central Committee member and Communist Party First Secretary, Moldavia S.S.R.
Russia: Boris Yeltsin, non-voting member, Communist Party Soviet Union Politburo. Followed by Anatola Putin, KGB.
Tajikistan: Rakhmon Nabiyev, Tajik Communist Party boss.
Turkmenistan: Saparmurat Niyazov, First Secretary of the Turkmen Communist Party, member of Gorbachev's Politburo.
Ukraine: Leonid Kuchma, former communist director of a USSR missile plant.
Uzbekistan: Islam Karimov, Communist Party First Secretary of Uzbekistan.
(International Currency Review: 22, 3-4)
What this list demonstrates is the continuity of the Communist Party staff under the Commonwealth of Independent States. Therefore it is not surprising that the old GULAG prison camps are still packed with prisoners. It is no wonder that arms limitation and reduction treaties are being violated as nuclear war preparations continue by Russia and her Federation along with China.
With this background, Avraham Shifrin, who wrote The First Guidebook to Prisons and Concentration Camps of the Soviet Union, sent a letter to Christopher Story on June 5, 1996. In the letter he said "the situation in the camps of Russia, the Ukraine [as well as other parts of the USSR with the exception of the Baltic States] has not changed."
Even the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan is a classic deception. Note the following facts: One of the main warlords recently fighting for control of Afghanistan was General Abdul Rashid Dostum, an ethnic Uzbek whose troops entered Afghanistan as part of the Soviet Army. During heavy fighting in the summer of 1997, General Dostum's army received air support from Soviet-made bombers based in "former" Soviet Tajikistan. How did this happen? Dostum's Uzbek troops were declared "mercenaries" in the mid-1980s, dropping out of the Soviet Army by permission of the Soviet leadership, and were declared "Islamic" prior to the Soviet withdrawal. After Dostum's defeat in 1998, General Masoud took up the fight with Moscow's help.
This leads to the question: Did the West really win the Cold War? When you see Communist victories in the Congo and Angola, together with Nelson Mandela's victory in South Africa, and Bill Clinton in the White House in Washington, it seems to be unrecognized Western defeats. But nobody remembers that Mandela is a communist and Clinton did business behind the Iron Curtain in the 70s!
As Avraham Shifrin said in his letter to Christopher Story: "The West believes the Russian lies, as it wants to believe there will be a quiet life, BUT THERE WON'T BE."
