Tibet was a sovereign nation roughly 50 years ago.  It isn't now.  50 years is someones lifetime.

East Prussia has been consolidated for 130 years now.  Not someones lifetime.

Simple eh?  And I don't know how many east prussians or southern dutch are demanding freedom for their nation.

As for facts, well your right, I couldn't find a none biased source that hit the three million mark.

However I did find at the University of Virginia a piece stating that more than 1.5 million have been killed.  http://www.virginia.edu/nobel/laureates/bi...ailama_bio.html

Maybe not 3 million, but 1.5 million isn't exactley a handful now is it?

Is that more or less than the amount of Vietnamese killed during the Vietcong war?

Four million Vietnamese dead I think.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
