Stalin Rehabilitated
One of the most prolific mass murderers in history, second only to Mao, Joe Stalin has his own mini-series. Sometimes it is difficult to suggest anybody was more evil than Hitler but if you measure by bodies, Stalin exceeded Hitler's wildest dreams. Only problem for Russia is they never learned to vilify and reject their Uncle Joe. As Daniil Dondurey, editor in chief of Cinema Art said:
"The message is clear: Russia needs a wise leader,' he said. 'The main goal of this show is to preserve and nurture in the people the desire to obey a supreme leader, to take pride in having a supreme leader, to see no alternative to this model in the development of society."
Putin continues to drag his country to a place they have forgotten brought them nothing but misery.
