When it comes to blood thirsty Communists, especially the one's like Pol Pot in SE Asia, it's either them or you that die.......
Perhaps as many as 100,000,000 innocent civilians were torcered and killed under Communist governements of the 20th century....

The only thing bad that might have happened is if any non-Communist innocent civilians were killed.

I'm sorry, I'm confused. How is killing communists atrocious?

killing innocent pesants isnt an apaling war crime no matter which side of politics they surport?

Perhaps as many as 100,000,000 innocent civilians were torcered and killed under Communist governements of the 20th century.... Bullshit.

Somebody is simply adding up all the dead people anywhere near a government they don't like.

The mass murder of Indonesians by a client Islamic tyranny, with the full support and direct aid of the US, was one of the worst slaughters of the 20th century. Along with the mass murder by airplane of the Cambodians and Laotians and innocent Vietnamese, the Holocaust of the German Reich, the massacre of the Armenians, and several others of lesser size but comparable proportional impact, they should be kept in mind when handing power over to strutting militaristic types.
I'm sorry, I'm confused. How is killing communists atrocious? Especially when they are infidels. Or Jews. It's one of those mysteries - they do look human though, so you're going to get a lot of whining from the liberals.

What if those innocent peasants were fascists? After all you're apparantly anti fascism right?

[Asguard]

im also anti libral party but that doesnt mean i want to shoot my grandmother because she is stupid enough to fall for the libral parties speal.

the international convention on civil and political rights speciffically says that persicution based on a political affiliation is a breach of international law

[Cazzo]

Bullshit.



Just like neo-Nazi's deny the holocaust, neo-communists deny the even larger Communist democides of the 20th century.
We've seen this before on these forums, and it shows just how radical some of the leftists are here.

Communism doesn't work, I don't know why those on the far-right are so scared of it.

This was a taboo thing to talked in Indonesia, actually even until now. On
30th September 1965, several army generals were kidnapped and murdered
by unknown people. Their bodies were dumped into a well (water well),
known as lubang buaya (crocodile well). The army blamed coup attempt on
the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30_September_Movement):

In the days and weeks that followed, the army blamed coup attempt on the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). Soon a campaign of mass killing was underway (see Indonesian killings of 1965–66), which would result in the death of hundreds of thousands of people accused of aiding the 'PKI coup attempt'.

Until now many people avoid to talk about this topic because many people
who were lived and had powered in that era are still alive and in power
(politically and economically). It is not clear who was behind everything, but
every year until about just few years ago, every 30th September all TVs
would broadcast this historic events. The same documenter movie for about
30 years.

During Soeharto regime (over 30 years until 1998), communist party is
forbidden. We are all traumatic over this tragedy. Anybody who are suspected
to have family line with former communist can hardly get occupation,
because people are afraid being related with them. At least that is what I
know, but I don't know much as I am only 20 something years old (I did not
witness this historical event directly and none talked about it). This situation
has changed much after the reformation in 1998 (the end of the 30 years
regime).

I see you haven't been to a college or university in the last 30 years; where pro-Communist university "professors" abound, and Che Guevara is an iconic hero.
And you don't have to be on the "far-right" to be scared of Communism. :rolleyes:
