Stalin’s Legacy in Georgia NowNews From Former USSR
MOSCOW, March 6, 2009
Mikhail Gorbachev likened Vladimir Putin’s party, the “United Russia to the worst of the communists that he once led and helped to bring down. He noted that Russia today under Putin is a country where the parliament and the judiciary are not free.”
Gorbachev also noted that the “global economic crisis showed that capitalism should be tempered with elements of socialist system” – that he played such a critical role in order to seep away the system and the Soviet Union.
He stated, without even blinking an eye that: “I was a resolute opponent of the break up of the USSR!”
COMMENT:
Once an absolute traitor and a liar- always a liar – no matter how he tries in his dying days and influence to make himself out in history as a hero, while pocketing hundreds of thousands of dollars or his traitorous speaking engagements all over the capitalist world.
Hey Gorby: Putin is only following in your footsteps into the smelly garbage bin of history!
In the period of the present economic crisis of world capitalism, Imperialism needs, like a breath of fresh air, fascist regimes to flourish. We wrote many times the restoration of fascist tendencies in some former Soviet republics, in whose number also is Russia. Therefore we Bolsheviks are not surprised when we marching the former Hitler Nazi Legionnaires through the streets of the former Soviet Baltic countries and in Western Ukraine, or training in
NATO camps on how to divide Russia into smaller pieces, under the guise of “fighting terrorism”!
In this vocal agitation against the Russian people is the political movement “Yabloko” which now wants to head the state-sponsored anti-communist elements and fascist orientated movements plus Zionist elements, to “liquidate any thoughts or history of Bolshevism and
Stalinism” from the minds. They seem to forget that “If you sow the wind, you will reap a hurricane!”
In Russia the unemployment will be around Ten Million people by the end of this year. The same situation is in Ukraine, Byelorussia and in other former Soviet Republics.
The only alternative from this systematic economic crisis of Imperialism is Socialism. This is what HISTORY is dictating now!
The present leaders of “Yabloko” Party seem to forget that you cannot hide or abandon the ideology of Marx-Engels-Lenin and Stalin. The future for the world is based on the teachings of these great Marxists-Bolsheviks!

Crews of vessels of the “Ukrainian Danube Shipping Company” – the largest enterprise of the city of Izmail of the Odessa area of Ukraine – have declared the intention to block the river Danube in protest against mass lay-offs and delays in salaries from the administration of the company, says the news agency “New Region” ("Новый регион").
The seamen demand, in particular, the payment of the wages owed to them by the company, which at the moment is approximately 2.6 million hryvnas [approximately $333 000 US]. Also, the crews of vessels protest the lay-off of 850 employees of the company, caused, according to the heads of the shipping company, by reductions of non-productive expenses.
On March 10th, there was a meeting in the city council of Izmail, during which a decision was made to form a special commission to create an appeal to the top government institutions, says the news agency. Furthermore, the council members have advised the seamen to write their own appeal to the Ukrainian government.

Stalin was voted by the people of Russia as the third most popular historical figure in a nationwide television poll last month, despite all of the anti-Soviet, anti-Communist and anti-Stalin propaganda.
According to this TV poll, in the first place was Prince Alexander Nevsky, of the 13th century who defeated the German invaders. In second place was Pyotor Stolypin, the prime minister of the early 20th century.
This Russian TV poll could not erase the popularity or the tremendous historical significance of Stalin, no matter how these state pollsters tried to do so.
The Russian leadership now is going to modernize its defense capability after Gorbachev-Putin-Medvedev’s long love affair with NATO and US. These sell-out artists thought that Imperialism would stop their undermining, their sabotage, their creeping territorial expansion after the USSR was dismembered and socialism was abandoned.
It showed that these traitors to USSR, to Lenin, to Stalin, to Socialism and to the Soviet people either misjudged Imperialism or played along to get personal gains as well as fattening their overseas bank accounts, as well as have their children study in Western private schools, plus all other perks at the expense of the Soviet people.
Now Mr. Medvedev is planning to cut down the size of the Russian Army (while US-NATO are building up theirs) and start to modernize the Russian Army into mobile and fast-acting 3,500 – 4,000 man brigades and Russia will increase its military spending to $52 billion.
That is small change by Russia as to what Mr. Obama is planning to do, according to the Pentagon, US spends now $741 Billons on its military each year. But Mr. Obama has now ear-marked over $200 billions more this year!
Now, put together the spending of all the other NATO countries in their common quest for world domination, Mr. Putin-Medvedev you are children playing hide-and-seek with a Big Bully – US Imperialism.
NATO has former USSR, and in particular Russia, surrounded on all sides with military bases, military pacts and military agreements with the so-called “friends of Russia”.
During the Cold War, started by US imperialism and followed through by NATO, the Soviet Union had 12 million men army plus 50,000 battle tanks – thus making NATO think twice before their expansion towards the East.
With the likes of leaders like Gorbachev, Yeltsin, Putin and Medvedev, NATO of course understood that there are friends in the Kremlin, so the MARCH TO THE EAST began in full earnest.
Now, that Russia is surrounded from all sides by NATO and US military bases - Putin-Medvedev duo are trying to streamline and downsize their defenses while the enemy is expanding theirs and moving closer and closer to the actual border of Russia. Russia has a border of 57,792 km in Asia, Europe, the Far East and Arctic – plus 14 neighboring nations.
US imperialism accounts for over 50% of all the world’s military spending. US spend more on their wars of occupation in Afghanistan and Iraq than the COMBINED DEFENSE BUDGES OF CHINA and RUSSIA!
According to the New York Times correspondent in Moscow, Russian leadership is growing very uneasy over its neighbor China and its expansion into Siberia. There are only 20-25 million ethnic Russians in this Siberian region, facing 1.3 Billon Chinese. Although the Russian-Chinese relations at this time are amicable, thousands upon thousands of Chinese are slipping intro Siberia region, as present Russian regime allows this Siberian region to be drawn into and part of Chinese economic orbit!
Race tensions are erupting and the situation is becoming volatile.
MOSCOW – Last month Colonel-General Anatoly Nogovitsyn charged
“That some countries threaten to shoot down a North Korean launched rocket that is to take a satellite into orbit – is nothing more than a manifestation of double standards.”
“When some countries (meaning the US – Editor) state that the North Korean launch of its rocket is a threat to the security of a certain country, this is double standards – meaning that the West can do whatever it wishes, but other countries cannot.”
The General also pointed out that 80% of France’s energy is generated by nuclear power plants and why cannot another country do likewise?
He also stated that Russia has the technology to monitor outer space. “Nothing of what is launched into space anywhere in the world cannot be hidden. Just like us, the US has the same technology and technical capabilities.”
Stalin’s Legacy in Georgia NowFrom New York Times
In an extensive article attacking Stalin’s legacy, NYT was forced to print the following admission, plus printing the photograph below of a “look-alike Stalin living in Georgia.”
“The admiration and the love for Stalin in this small 4.6 million population of Georgia, is seen in the following news item.
Jamil Ziyuadaliev, 64, and a father of two, was asked by the people of Gori to help out in keeping the name of Stalin alive and his deeds to be remembered. Majority of Georgian people respect Stalin because he was a great leader who helped to build the Soviet Union, for defeating the Nazis and saving the world from fascism. He was also the most famous Georgian who ever lived.”
Georgian history books even now – despite the reactionary pro-American leadership – write about Stalin and his love of Georgia.
In Gori, Stalin’s birthplace where there is still a marble statue of Stalin in the central square. Jamil (Stalin) is asked to be an honored guest at weddings, anniversary occasions, history classes in schools and on important holiday occasions by people celebrating the USSR.
There are always toasts on such occasions, such as: “To our great comrade Stalin!”
Jamil Ziyuadaliev personifies in person the love for Stalin by majority of not only the Georgian people, but most Soviet people as well dedicated Marxists-Leninists-Bolsheviks in the world.
Those to try to erase Stalin’s name from history – will themselves be erased and forgotten forever – while the name of J.V. Stalin will live on forever!
Of course, Mr. Gorbachev the traitor, is joining another traitor, Alexander Lebedev, a former Russian legislator, who is now billionaire, and forming a new political party that will challenge the present traitorous regime of Mr. Putin and Mr. Medvedev. They plan to name this party the – “Independent Democratic Party.”
It’s obvious that Putin, the former good boy of Gorbachev had a falling out – competition for $$$ backers seems the logical reason.
This new “independent” political party leaders are as “independent” as was Bush and Obama from the policies of US imperialism.
No matter how hard you try Mr. Gorby – the garbage bin of history is waiting for you!
At the G-20 Summit meeting in London, GB, U.S. President Obama met for discussions with Russian President Medvedev to discuss a new nuclear arms treaty, even as they agreed to pursue a broader cooperation across a wide-range of policy issues.
At this closed-door meeting the statement that was issued after, said that the two leaders pledged to begin immediately a new treaty on offensive nuclear weapons to replace the START agreement, which expires at the end of this year.
President Obama also met leader of China but, the protests turned vicious against all the G-20 capitalist leaders in London with scores of arrests as thousands of protestors clashed with heavily armed riot police.
These two Imperialist-capitalist leaders will not solve the many ills of capitalism!
Freedom to All Political PrisonersMarch 18 is the International Day of Solidarity with Political Prisoners. The International Council for Friendship and Solidarity with Soviet People and the Editorial Board of Northstar Compass greet all the political prisoners who were imprisoned during their struggle for the revolution and socialism in the whole world and express our solidarity with them.
We send our comradely greetings to all the militants and to our comrades-in-arms who are in prisons and whose numbers are increasing as the struggle intensifies.
Imperialism tries to silence the growing struggles by imprisoning then and in that way to hinder them in this way from reaching out and leading the struggles against the capitalist system and its imperialist US master.
Let us all unite in this struggle for the future of mankind – which is Socialism!
Freedom To All Political Prisoners!The Central Committee of the
Unified Communist Party of Georgia informs all with deep grief that the
First Secretary of the CC of the UCPG suddenly passed away.
Comrade Giorgadze was a Soviet General and a veteran of the Great Patriotic War. He was the leader of our party during the most complicated years of rabid ant-communism, extreme nationalism and Russophobia in Georgia He made a high contribution to the restoration of friendship between fraternal people and to throw off the yoke of Western imperialism and once again to go towards reconstruction and a Socialist Georgia inside the Motherland which was the USSR.
He showed us lessons of firmness and courage, lessons of uncompromising struggle for the bright future of our Soviet Motherland.
Eternal memory to comrade Giorgadze, the real son of Georgia and of all the Soviet People!
On behalf of the Central Committee of the Unified Communist Party of Georgia
