Communism and Socialism requires a dictator who will “plan the economy” of State-owned land and money and industry, in order to coordinate the use of them.Communism and Fascism will be similar, in that, in either, we will have a dictator, and the masses of the people will become the literal slaves of the State.
In Fascism, this dictator will come from the money-owning or banker class of people.
In Communism or Socialism, this dictator will come probably from some labor union.
Unless we will forestall it by inaugurating our proposed reforms in money and land, the coming industrial and political and economic fight will be (and already is) between the forces of Fascism and the forces of Communism to control government and to name the coming dictator. Either will result in the death of the rights of the individual and real fee enterprise.
The Fascist or Socialist dictator, either, will say that the State will be superior to the individual, as Hitler and Mussolini and Stalin did.
Fascism (the ultimate development of the economic-injustice-causing elements of Capitalism, as we saw) and its dictator will, when he will come into being, immediately begin to have dreams of empire, and the getting of colonies.
In the development of colonies, his nation will be able to dispose of “surplus” and “accumulated capital” and “excess population.”
On the other hand, Socialism or Communism and its dictator, will, like Russia [i.e. U.S.S.R] is doing even today [1955], begin to have dreams of empire in order
(1) To keep the minds of the People off of themselves, and
(2) To prevent them from becoming introspective and explosive, and
(3) To dispose of their energies in wars and hatred and distrust of the rest of the world, and
(4) To prevent rebellion.
From Soviet Union's Aggressions Against the World, Gen. Oleg Sarin & Col. Lev Dvoretsky, 1996
More and more researchers are tending to believe that the primary cause of the [1939-45] conflict was the Leninist-Stalinist policy of world revolution under the red banners of Communism. . . . Our personal research into the archives of the Soviet state and especially from the classified papers of the Central Committee of the Communist Party confirm this conclusion. We now have all the proof necessary for stating that Stalin was doing everything possible to give up any friendly alliances with Western nations in the 1930s in order to get closer to Fascist Germany. . . .( page 39 )
Note : Back in 1933 when Hitler came to power, MacArthur made a remarkable prophecy which revealed his deep insight into the working of historical forces. At a time when the whole world was speculating fearfully on the menace of Nazi Germany, MacArthur said, “In the final analysis, the issue is Moscow. Without Moscow’s workings in the nations of Europe there would be no Hitler, and if Hitler takes Germany into war again, it will be the result of Russian intrigue and planning. He is Russia’s creation and he will be Russia’s unwitting instrument.” (Clark Lee and Richard Henschel, “Douglas MacArthur”, Hew York : Holt, 1952, page 59.)
On only one occasion did the USSR suffer from external aggression, when in 1941 it was invaded by Hitler's Nazi hordes. In all other cases the wars and other military actions were foreign, waged against foreign nations on foreign territories. And we must remember that the Soviet German war was to a great extent provoked by Stalin and his team . . . Not only did the Soviet people suffer great privation and horrible casualties, but Stalin's expansionist policy contrived to join a great portion of Western Europe to the Soviet empire and forge solid power bases in Asia. . . . Humanity was jeopardized in a deadly manner by this monster . . .
The Stalin era contained the most bloody and aggressive years in Soviet history. If Lenin created a theoretical basis for Soviet expansionism, Stalin implemented it as completely as could have been desired. In the years of Stalin's dictatorship, the Soviet empire was enlarged and expanded to threatening dimensions, even before the onset of World War II. Taking advantage of the revolution in Spain, Stalin sent great resources in armaments and me there with the hope that Spanish Communists would prevail and establish a pro-Soviet regime. The plan failed.
Next he provoke a war with little Finland, in the hope of territorial acquisition and political dominance. Regular units were employed, supported by aviation, artillery, armor, and all other kinds of military force. The Red Army was badly led and suffered enormous losses in the horrible winter conditions for which it had not been trained. It had to retreat and regroup, but eventually forced a peace treaty in which the Soviet Union gained a small part of Finnish territory.
The secret pact between the Soviet Molotov and the German Ribbentrop was a logical marriage between the two bloody dictators, Stalin and Hitler. It gave them a green light in occupying foreign territories and unleashing the terrors of the Second World War. In a few short years Hitler invaded the Soviet Union . . . The victorious Stalin was able to establish pro-Soviet remiges in countries like Poland, Hungary, and East Germany, setting up the Warsaw Pact. But he was not content with these gains in Europe. His neoglobalism embraced the Asian continent. The war in Korea, during which American and Soviet pilots opposed one another for the first time, was the last military exploit of the generalissimo.
Stalin's military adventures were conducted in an atmosphere of fierce terror among the peoples of the Soviet Union. Hitler is said to have exterminated some six million Jews and other "undesirables," of whom only about 300,000 were German citizens. Stalin was responsible for killing, according to the calculations of Professor I.A. Kurganov, about 66 million Soviet citizens during his bloody reign, a staggering number.3 Again it is no wonder that one cannot speak of any protests by the Soviet public.
