Death of a brave man
 
Dith Pran the "Killing Fields" journalist who brought to public attention the attrocities of Cambobia's Marxist regime has died.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7321560.stm

whilst at the same time it is clear that another Marxist regime will fix election results in Zimbabwe to cling on to power and continue to viciously strangle a once wealthy country.

When will Marxism be judged where it truely belongs, next to its bedfellow National Socialism?

The lunatic in Zimbabwe has learnt from past history (when is history anything other than past?), his cohorts make sure that any journalists are kept on a very tight leash. Anyone publishing non-pro-Mugabe media is beaten up first time, then shut down for a second offence.

Unfortunately, the early Marxists made control of the populace through propaganda and violence a basic tenet of the greater picture. Very sad, even though Marxism and Communism have been proven to be flawed, minor despots continue to use these progammes for their own self-advancement. Sad little men ;)
