I guess that mean you were once again confronted by truth and again did not know how to handle it. Thanks for the compliment. |

I admit that it is rather enjoyable exposing you for the jerk you are and exposing your foolishness. But I will no longer enable your foolishness tpnight. Good night. |

I really thought someone like Colo_crawdad would know his US history better: While General Secretary Browder at first attacked Germany for its September 1, 1939 invasion of western Poland, on September 11, the CPUSA received a blunt directive from Moscow denouncing the Polish government.[18] Between September 14–16, CPUSA leaders bickered about the direction to take.[18] On September 17 the Soviet Union invaded eastern Poland and occupied the Polish territory assigned to it by the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, followed by co-ordination with German forces in Poland.[19][20] The British, French, and German Communist parties, all originally war supporters, abandoned their anti-Fascist crusades, demanded peace, and denounced Allied governments.[21] The CPUSA turned the focus of its public activities from anti-fascism to advocating peace, not only opposing military preparations but also condemning those opposed to Hitler. The CPUSA attacked British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and French leader Édouard Daladier, but did not at first attack President Roosevelt, reasoning that this could devastate American Communism, blaming instead Roosevelt's advisors.[21] In October and November, after the Soviets invaded Finland and forced mutual assistance pacts from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, the CPUSA considered Russian security sufficient justification to support the actions.[22] Secret short wave radio broadcasts in October from Comintern leader Georgi Dimitrov ordered Stalinist Browder to change the CPUSA's support for Roosevelt.[22] On October 23, the CPUSA began attacking Roosevelt.[23] The CPUSA dropped its boycott of Nazi goods, spread the slogans "The Yanks Are Not Coming" and "Hands Off", set up a "perpetual peace vigil" across the street from the White House and announced that Roosevelt was the head of the "war party of the American bourgeoisie".[23] By April 1940, the CPUSA Daily Worker's line seemed not so much antiwar as simply pro-German.[24] A pamphlet stated the Jews had just as much to fear from Britain and France as they did Germany.[24] In August 1940, after NKVD agent Ramón Mercader killed Leon Trotsky with an ice axe, Browder perpetuated Moscow's fiction that the killer, who had been dating one of Trotsky's secretaries, was a disillusioned follower.[25] In allegiance to the Soviet Union, the party changed this policy again after Adolf Hitler broke the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact by attacking the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Communist_Party_USA#The_Popular_Front_.281935.E2.80.931939.29 |
