Stalin Making a Comeback? Moscow's May Day Celebrations
On May 9, the Russians will be celebrating the 65th anniversary of the end of the war against Hitler. To mark the day, someone has decided it would be a good thing to plaster the city of Moscow with giant posters of none other than Stalin.
Let's see, he killed millions of his own people through outright murder and famine, he created the Gulags; which are responsible for about 1.7 million deaths, and was responsible for forced deportation and resettlements. What's not to celebrate?

LOL. It's all part of the Daily Outrage.
Hey, at least the Russians don't have to worry about offending the American administration.
Maybe this is a way of currying favor with Obama.
