USA is 200+ years old and Lavette described the morality of 19th century. USA was (probably still is) one of the front-runners as far as the modern concepts of freedom and justice are concerned. It was quite good by those 19th century standards. And it is totally laughable for Soviets to justify their present day brutality by pointing to the way USA was functioning 140 years ago. Yes, I agree, it is propaganda. No, I do not think it is much of a food for thought. Mike Musing
