Joseph Stalin's funeral

Cold War
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_war

After annexing several occupied countries as Soviet Socialist Republics at the end of World War II, other occupied states were added to the Eastern Bloc by converting them into puppet Soviet Satellite states, such as East Germany, the People's Republic of Poland, the People's Republic of Hungary, the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, the People's Republic of Romania and the People's Republic of Albania.

The Soviet-style regimes that arose in the Bloc not only reproduced Soviet command economies, but also adopted the brutal methods employed by Joseph Stalin and Soviet secret police to suppress real and potential opposition. In Asia, the Red Army had overrun Manchuria in the last month of the war, and went on to occupy the large swath of Korean territory located north of the 38th parallel.

In September 1947, the Soviets created Cominform, the purpose of which was to enforce orthodoxy within the international communist movement and tighten political control over Soviet satellites through coordination of communist parties in the Eastern Bloc. Cominform faced an embarrassing setback the following June, when the Tito--Stalin split obliged its members to expel Yugoslavia, which remained Communist but adopted a non-aligned position.

As part of the Soviet domination of the Eastern Bloc, the NKVD, led by Lavrentiy Beria, supervised the establishment of Soviet-style secret police systems in the Bloc that were supposed to crush anti-communist resistance. When the slightest stirrings of independence emerged in the Bloc, Stalin's strategy matched that of dealing with domestic pre-war rivals: they were removed from power, put on trial, imprisoned, and in several instances, executed.

@MedusaFrauVenus 46% of your country want communism back. And 49% think country was better before the year 1989.

@REDSTORM1917 The Soviet Union was something it's enemies Feared. It was a Superpower, today America claims to be the only superpower left but really it's falling apart internally. About 5 or 6 other Countries or groups of countries all claim to be superpowers now, or a level below it

The problem with reviving the USSR, or a State of all those countries back together, a lot of their purpose was to oppose the west, which means instigating a conflict, which undoubtedly would be World War III

37% of Russians would vote for Stalin if he was alive and ran for president. 73% of Russians admit life was better in the USSR era. 50% of Russians have a positive opinion of Stalin.

the music at 0:44 is that the soviet anthem or a diffrent piece?

[chickenwretch]

Redstorm1917 is right. America in its smugness has slit its collective wrists and everyone is watching her bleed to death. Russia will not bow to East Coast establishment New World Order EU universalists. Why should they, with their power and will to use it they have their own designs. See Ezekial 38 and 39 chapters.

@MedusaFrauVenus Ok seems i have to be your friend to send you the link. Just go to diplomat.ro and write 'Communism favoured by half of Romanians' to the search box and there you have it!
