Oh, and the commies would perhaps have begun their infiltration then. Till 45 they had just a little more urgent things to do. (A bunch of several million Germans armed to their theeth, called the Wehrmacht, coming at you are a good reason to focus your attention. Russia sufferred more casualties than every other nation in WWII.

Hitler: Me too!
Tojo: He was a poor puppet of the military command. Still tempting, but I rather pity the poor fool.

President Reagan learned early what hot-headedness got you -

Unfortunately, he never took any lesson from it.

Other than that, the story isn?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t that good. PS: That about Ivan was a story. Not a fact, okay?

Anyone who doesn?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ¥t respond has a heart of stone and is going straight to hell.

What if one responds to one story (little Ivan) but not to another one (this bs)?

The world hates all of you, and if it werent of the Brits doing their feable best to clean up the mess, all the Chinese and all the Arabs, and the Russians, Koreans, Japanese, Africans, Indonesians, South Americans, Mexicans, French, Iranians, Egyptians, Sweeds and Danes, Celts, Goths and Akimbi, and probably the Canadians, are going the bomb the crap out of you.

Hey, you forgot the germans! :)

The German Guy
IMPEACH BUSH!

Exactly right. Mostly because he actually doesn’t remember the exact details, so he makes it up to push his own barrow. The stuff about Ivan is an amalgum of a number of different Russians that Reagan had contact with in his early years when he was deeply in love with his first wife:

“More than 20 years ago, President Kennedy defined an approach that is as valid today as when he announced it. “So let us not be blind to our differences,” he said, “but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved.” Well, those differences are differences in governmental structure and philosophy. The common interests have to do with the things of everyday life for people everywhere. Just suppose with me for a moment that an Ivan and an Anya could find themselves, oh, say, in a waiting room, or sharing a shelter from the rain or a storm with a Jim and Sally, and there was no language barrier to keep them from getting acquainted. Would they then debate the differences between their respective governments? Or would they find themselves comparing notes about their children and what each other did for a living? Before they parted company, they would probably have touched on ambitions and hobbies and what they wanted for their children and problems of making ends meet. And as they went their separate ways, maybe Anya would be saying to Ivan, “Wasn’t she nice? She also teaches music.” Or Jim would be telling Sally what Ivan did or didn’t like about his boss. They might even have decided they were all going to get together for dinner some evening soon. Above all, they would have proven that people don’t make wars. People want to raise their children in a world without fear and without war. They want to have some of the good things over and above bare subsistence that make life worth living. They want to work at some craft, trade, or profession that gives them satisfaction and a sense of worth. Their common interests cross all borders.”

-Ronald Reagan, Address to the Nation and Other Countries on United States-Soviet Relations, January 16, 1984.

Its no suprise that that wife was soon disposed of and replaced with a lady who was later called the First Lady.

President Regan was a great man. But he was horribly compromised in his early life by his drunkard Irish father’s commitment to communism. It was actually the LA cop played by Russel Crowe who first turned him. All through the 1980′s he did the bidding of his KGB controllers so that as planned the KGB would be in all the top positions in the Russian government by 2003 He was the KGB stooge in the Commiwood saga. The KGB used him to defeat Rockafeller in 1972, the man the Russian empire most feared during the 1970′s. If Rockafeller got in, then the whole Nixon/Deepthroat op would have been wasted. Ever since Reagan was President, the name of the USA has been dirt. Remember the glorious liberation of Hamilton? Or the preemptive strike against Hiata? Or how the USA defeated Colonel Gadaffi. It was sick farce, scripted by the KGB and paid for by Saudi oil.

Do not expect a serious of analysis of President Reagan on this site. Go to: http://www.slate.com/id/2102264/

And the problem is that the Reds still control Commiwood despite the Presidents best efforts. I think Ivan would have a grin on his face looking down from heaven right now. I guess you could ask who was running who? Who was Ivan? Was he in fact Ivan Karla, aka Karla, the Soviet spymaster who almost got his man in as top dog in MI6? If it weren’t for Smiley then, all of the free worlds secrets would have been free to the Soviet Empire. Imagine what would have happened then? The US economy would have been wrecked in a matter of months, they would have just turned off the oil. You people in the USA don’t understand. The world hates all of you, and if it werent of the Brits doing their feable best to clean up the mess, all the Chinese and all the Arabs, and the Russians, Koreans, Japanese, Africans, Indonesians, South Americans, Mexicans, French, Iranians, Egyptians, Sweeds and Danes, Celts, Goths and Akimbi, and probably the Canadians, are going the bomb the crap out of you.

So i reckon Smiley did more for freedom than President Reagan in the long run. But I think there was a connection between Karla, aka little Ivan, as I said. Thats at least what I think.
