Putin Recalls 'Romantic Years' of Soviet Youth
Excerpts from this article:
"The Soviet Union may be long gone but President Vladimir Putin, a former
KGB spy, has revealed that he retains fond memories of the Communist
Party's youth wing."
If you want to learn more about the "Romantic Years" of the old Soviet Union, check out this excellent book:
The Persecutor, by Sergei Kourdakov (Subtitle: "His Job in the Russian Police Was to Inflict Terror and Suffering on Christians...and He Did it Well!")
Here are 2 short excerpts from reviews of this book:
Reviewer #1: "Absolutely mind blowing! Reading this book sent shock waves down my spine! I usually don't upset very easily, but what the communists would do to innocent Christian people is so cruel it would make you sick."
Reviewer #2: "This book is the autobiography of a young orphan, recruited by the KGB to expose and torture Christians. Converted by their example of love, he defected to Canada and told the truth about communism brutality to the church. For this he was murdered."
To be fair, not everyone is as enthusiastic about this book. Wikipedia points out that since this book was published post-humously (after his murder!), Christians may have done some editing to make things in Russia look worse than they really were.
I've read this book and I believe it was written by Sergei Kourdakov, and what he wrote is factual. I highly recommend this book to everyone around the world, but especially Americans, because what Sergei talks about in this book is rapidly coming to this country!
