Великий поступок великого президента: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/11/07/wh-national-day-victims-communism/ "The Trump administration recognizes November 7, the 100th anniversary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, as the National Day for the Victims of Communism. Despite communism’s track record of intolerance and brutality, which caused the deaths of more than 100 million people in the 20th century, the move has been attacked and belittled by journalists from left-wing publications, including BuzzFeed, Salon, and Newsweek. The White House’s statement can be read in full below: Today, the National Day for the Victims of Communism, marks 100 years since the Bolshevik Revolution took place in Russia. The Bolshevik Revolution gave rise to the Soviet Union and its dark decades of oppressive communism, a political philosophy incompatible with liberty, prosperity, and the dignity of human life. Over the past century, communist totalitarian regimes around the world have killed more than 100 million people and subjected countless more to exploitation, violence, and untold devastation. These movements, under the false pretense of liberation, systematically robbed innocent people of their God-given rights of free worship, freedom of association, and countless other rights we hold sacrosanct. Citizens yearning for freedom were subjugated by the state through the use of coercion, violence, and fear. Today, we remember those who have died and all who continue to suffer under communism. In their memory and in honor of the indomitable spirit of those who have fought courageously to spread freedom and opportunity around the world, our Nation reaffirms its steadfast resolve to shine the light of liberty for all who yearn for a brighter, freer future. Marion Smith, executive director of Victims of Communism, a human rights group dedicated to remembering those who suffered and died under communist regimes and those who are still oppressed by them today, welcomed the statement."
