RE: Well, Stalin did defeat Hitler. Unlike him, Joe's designs on "world conquest"

"To his own people, tens of millions of whom died by his hand, he was a rapacious beast."

You mean that to those who were not victims of his brutality, he was not a beast? That to consider someone like Stalin a beast, one needs to be victim of his brutality?

He killed tens of millions of his own people because he perceived them a political threat. For all the U.S. imperfections, our history is devoid of such conduct. Also, the fairly recent film of Czech fighter pilots who escaped to England to fight for the allies against Hitler, returned home after the war, only to be incarcerated and brutally tortured by Russian forces because they fought for the allies.

I would agree that Stalin's methods of invading countries to spread Lenin's philosophy was not similar to Hitler, but then again, Truman agreed to give Stalin eastern block countries, and with that deal, the lives of millions of people who could not choose their own destiny, eliminating the need for invasion. Fact is, not much separates Stalin from Hitler, no matter how some on the left try to differentiate the two.
