A review of a peculiar product on sale from Amazon.
A bizarre envelope celebrating Stalinist leader
Klement Gottwald, the organizer of the Prague coup and the first Communist president
of Czechoslovakia. He also orchestrated the notorious show trial against Rudolf
Slansky, Artur London and other “Titoists” or “Zionists”, on direct orders from
Joe in Moscow. For “Zionist”, read Jew – many of those purged were Jewish.
There is some irony in this. Three years earlier, the Soviet bloc had supported
Israel against the British-appended Arab states during the Arab-Israeli war of
1948! Well, thank you, comrades… The envelope has a text in Slovak, which
claims that the name of Gottwald will live forever more (no less) in the
hearts, minds and deeds of the Czechoslovak working people??!! I'm sorry, but I
can only give this stuff one star, although I'm sure the product might interest
some collectors.
