well, many of the horrors of Soviet-style Communism were real, though often grossly exaggerated by the "Western" media, etc. But so were the horrors of the "war for freedom" (i.e., for U.S.-dominated world capitalism), which were often grossly underplayed or ignored by the "Western" media, etc. In any event, what kind of coverage can we expect from the mainstream media. -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
