Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Author, Prophet, Christian

[MrBrezhnev]

do not read the books of Anna Politkovskaya or natalia Estemirova. or anastasia Baburova.are twisted minds and really distorted.

[TossTheTV]

Go to video google (or even youtube) and search: dialogues with solschenizyn 1

"documentary" on him

[GrayWatchman]

I love the idea of putting Solzhenitsyn in place of Lenin. He is one of the true greats, and a personal hero since I read his first book nearly 40 years ago.

[SwampDog1957]

A genuine hero! "The Cancer Ward" should be required reading for anyone who thinks socialized medicine is the solution to healthcare costs in the USA.

[JustMeandOnlyMe]

Rest in peace, great man. Thank you for the countless hours of cathartic and soul-enhancing reading you have given me. I will re-read your books till I myself die.

Ivan Denisovich

In the First Circle

Cancer Ward

The Gulag Archipelago

[allords1]

This man embodies the true Russian spirit.

[sac78008]

It seems like he didn't have a problem with socialism itself, but rather the faithlessness of the people, just as he criticized America for its faithlessness. In Cancer Ward he advocated a kind of "moral socialism". Perhaps that would be just as good as a "moral capitalism".

[inferno0020]

@sac78008 I feel that Mr. Solzhenitsyn asked a harsh question on corruption and the dark side of humanity rather than simply picking up a side of Socialism and Capitalism. That's why I respect him.

"but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?"

Read The Gulag Archipelago. The Bolsheviks are upon us Amerika. Be ready and resist. We are many, they are few.

Спасибо Вам Александр Исаевич за то что Вы открыли глаза миллионам людей о существовании Архипелага с его кровавыми лагерями и на те ужасы которые происходили в них при советском коммунистическом режиме.Низкий поклон Вам.

[cbblackard]

A beautiful, very moving video. Thank you for posting.

[SecretTrollAccount1]

Reflections are often ugly when the mirror is not hung to the liking of the poser.

Communism or whatever idealogy gives rise to brutality can only have one of two responces.

Resistance or Indulgance.

There is nowhere to hide.

[bjr43]

One of Russia's greatest writers.

[lhcarter]

Wouldn't it be nice if Solzhenitsyn's books were required reading in high schools and colleges, then young people would know WHY communism is bad, instead of being enamored of it. He is the greatest man Russia ever produced. He lived through the hell of communism, like millions of others, but managed to document it for the world to see. For that we will be truly grateful. Rest in peace, sir.

[inferno0020]

@lhcarter

I can understand why you said it; Solzhenisyn is one of the bravest souls in the 20th century. However, his book is too harsh for high school students; even for college students.

Anyway, I respected him. отдых в мире

[TreueumTreueFest62]

He is hated by communist.That's good!

A hero and great man who denounced the brutality of Stalin and their bolsheviks.

Thanks for destroy "Stalin's legacy"

He remembers me John the Baptist,I don't know why.

Nice video, thanks

[dono509]

I hope that there are people in Russia who will heed his warnings as to what Russia should be. Vladimir is obviously NOT a big fan. Russia OUT OF GEORGIA!!!

A.I.S. - Memory Eternal

[Vostorgina01]

Russia has to punish Georgia for its deliberate targeting of civilians and hang Saakashvili as a war criminal. AIS would APPROVE. Don't forget that he and Mr Putin were friends. They saw eye to eye on Russia.

[yurtaevi]

@dono509 Russia out of Georgia? lol Russia is not in Georgia, and never was, they been friends over centuries, and i hope this wont damage the relationship because of some lunatik who sold himself to Bush, he goes by the name of Sakashvilli. USA out of Afganistan and Iraq, that would be more accurate.

[alexkvaskov]

@dono509 First get America out of Georgia

[aelialicinia]

@dono509 Russian people have no quarell with their Christian brothers and sister in Georgia--but with the lunatic that rules them.

[deussolinvictus]

He will be greatly missed. Eternal memory.

[cromwell88]

A wonderful tribute to a remarkable man. Beautiful music as always. Well done!

[turtlemom]

Memory Eternal!

[usenetposts]

Please put this man in Lenin's tomb, and kick Lenin out of it.
