Huh? You realize you just destroyed your own argument, yes? If a communist system cannot compete with surrounding capitalist systems, then it is a failed system.
Then according to your argument, capitalism is a failed system also, since most self sustained capitalist systems that have ever existed eventually went bellied up.
Huh? What does the fact that Russia was a monarchy before the revolution have to do with anything? I know I certainly didn't bring it up.
How many times do I have to repeat myself? According to theory, a society must go through various stages before it could even attempt communism. Russia went straight from little better than a feudal system to communist. That's why it failed.
Edit.
Anyway, I agree to disagree. This is getting old.

Re: Name the oppressor (and the enabling infected monkey driver)
Jar, while you're right that both sides have had their hands dirtied, Israel remains the only player that is constantly facing a possible extinction. No other nation on Earth that currently has as many enemies who have sworn to its destruction than Israel.
I see what they are doing as a natural response to preserving their own existence.
