By R. C. VanLandingham, Crisis Magazine - The Chinese Communists have never cared much for human life. During their revolution, they not only brutally executed their enemies, but even buried their own soldiers alive. Once the Communists took control of the country, they used the same brutality against their own people. “Some of our comrades have too much mercy, not enough brutality, which means they are not so Marxist,” Mao told his senior officials. “We indeed have no conscience! Marxism is that brutal.”
