Yes it has, but the matter of figures is not undisputed. I read that the 60 millions figure came up by unscrupulously adding figures relating to different groups of victims, one of them being the Russian victims of W.W.II. Some historians (and me) found this rather questionable. Umberto, That assumption will stand for you. In a few weeks a new book based on population statistics of the former Soviet Union will be published here in Sweden. The figures there are much higher than 60 million. Ant the total for the global class murder of communism is set at 150 million. As for the collapse of the Chinese regime, which resembles more and more the State mafia Communism had turned into after Khrushev, yes, it's probably time it collapses--but until Western powers will keep making business with China as if everyting was normal there, I think Collapse-day will be delayed. But you know, embargoes are only for small countries with no H-bombs. Well, I am sorry to see that you are not condemning the mass murderer Mao. Maybe he is still regarded as a revolutionary hero in Italy. Best wishes from an anti-communist Bertil Haggman
