This only underscores the original point.  The numbers here add up to about
2,100,000.  Stalin killed that many (or so) in the Ukraine (sp) ALONE.

Face it, the WORST atrocities that can POSSIBLY be blamed on the U.S.
(which seems to be a lot - at least by people whose vested interests are
in such things) pale in comparasion to those perpetrated by the
Communist regiemes of the 20th century.

Oh yes, I do believe there have been several hundred thousand killed
more or less directly by the Soviets in Afghanistan (I don't have the
real numbers on the top of my head).
