Solzhenitsyn

: Was Solzhenitsyn another fraud like David Horowitz?

You make it sound like Solzhenitsyn is dead and gone. He's not. He went back to Russia in 1994---and has been vociferously criticizing the capitalist Yeltsin Regime. (Not that Time magazine would let us in on that.)

The reason I mentioned Trotsky is because no one better symbolizes the fact that you are WRONG when you say 'Marxism led to Stalin'.

Trotsky---indeed all of the Bolsheviks---died for what they believed in.

Guess what that was?
