That it was he who organized the “Great Terror”, exterminated the “Leninist Guard” and “beheaded the army.” That everyone who fell into the millstone of political repression were “innocent victims” of the “bloody Stalinist regime.” The press and television have been clamoring about this for half a century, school textbooks have been repeating this.
