Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library
LEON TROTSKY'S COLLABORATION WITH GERMANY AND JAPAN.
Grover Furr will discuss his new book, which argues: At the Moscow Trials of 1937 and 1938, some of Leon Trotsky's followers accused Trotsky of secretly conspiring with Nazi Germany and fascist Japan. Since Nikita Khrushchev's "Secret Speech" of 1956 attacking Stalin, these charges have been routinely dismissed as false by Soviet, Russian, and Western historians. But we know now that Khrushchev was lying! Grover Furr asks the question: What is the evidence that Trotsky conspired with the Germans and Japanese? How should this evidence be analyzed and interpreted? In this book, Furr conducts an expert, objective study of the evidence. He concludes that Trotsky did indeed collaborate with the Germans and Japanese. The proof that Trotsky was guilty of collaboration with the Nazis and Japanese dramatically changes our understanding of Soviet history of the 1930s and of Joseph Stalin's role.

This lie of denying anti-Semite Stalin’s crimes and promoting Stalin’s lies about Leon Trotsky, who was of Jewish ancestry, is the same as denying the Holocaust, the genocide of 6 million Jews by Nazi Germany, out of the 9 million Jews who lived in Europe before WW2, then the center of the world’s Jewish population. Just as there are books, movies and websites denying the Holocaust, so too are there books, movies and websites promoting Stalin and his lies about Trotsky. This does not change the fact of history that the Holocaust happened and there are books, movies and websites verifying the Holocaust. It also does not change the fact of history that Trotsky has been vindicated in his assessment of Stalin as a counter-revolutionary, and there are books, movies and websites verifying Stalin’s crimes and counter-revolutionary position and the fact that Trotsky and his pro-revolutionary position has been vindicated.
This is the same Eugene Ruyle who, in 2016, promoted the obvious Democrats’ sheepdog, Bernie Sanders, that the Democrats have in every presidential election where there is no Democratic incumbent, to make sure the workingclass voters support the Democrats instead of socialists or Greens, the only reason the Democrats exist, as there is no other reason to have 2 capitalist parties, Democrats and Republicans, promoting the same capitalist agenda, paid by the same capitalist class. The facts of Bernie Sanders being a sheepdog and a warmonger, who supported military contractors in Vermont and everywhere else, were well known and openly discussed. See:

MEANWHILE, the 70 million people on Medicaid are being threatened with death due to loss of medical care by the current Trump budget which proposes requiring Medicaid recipients to work, when most of them cannot work, and limits their lifetime eligibility for Medicaid, guaranteeing genocide. Should this insanity be allowed, it will cause the loss not only of the lives of 70 million people but also of the thousands of jobs of the healthcare providers to the people on Medicaid and therefore cause the beginning of the end of any healthcare system in this country. There are certainly a lot of healthcare workers who could be featured speakers on this issue and healthcare is a primary issue that needs to be discussed.
With this latest slap in the face to all Marxists on Leon Trotsky, it is time, long overdue, that Eugene Ruyle be put out to pasture as he is anti-Marxist.
