and the christian stalin how many millions did he kill you asshole. there is assholes and there is assholes but your average gc asshole is something else.
Ah, the Reducto ad Stalinum argument - like reducto ad Hitlerum but communistic.
Yes Stalin killed Millions - Stalin was neither Christian nor Greek Speaking Cypriot - in the Ukraine it is estimated that, due to the Holodomor, an artificial famine, between 2.5 and 7 million Ukrainians died in the period 1932 and 1933 - in Crimea there was wholescale ethnic cleansing in 1944 - they still suffer, now under Putin. That was point of the song.
However trying to diminish the evils of the Ottoman Empire and later Turkey by pointing to the greater Evils of the Soviet Union does not take away the guilt of Turkey for those acts committed in 1915 - 1920, 1974 and even today.
