this one WAS ugly.
look, nowhere in this thread did i say the KGB is GOOD.
for god's sakes it's the same friggin thing as america's system now! homeland security is HIRING these wackos! the israeli faction of the neo-cons were trained in the soviet union!
but the VAST majority of the deaths in eastern europe were not orchestrated by the KGB, it was by the NKVD. it's very very simple.
if people want to confuse the two then the case could me made that russian special operations have killed more than american. but that WAS NOT the original question.
unreal.
