That's also true. But in my opinion Mr Palaces used communism as an excuse. To me it looks like that also happened in other places mostly because communism was a change of government and many people tried to profit from that. The book I suggest is full of people that truly believe in communism and that get tossed around by Stalin's zero trust policies.

In other replies many people mistook me for an anti-comunist. I am not, but I think blaming the failure of communism to only foreign intervention overlooks many points (I know it's a meme). One of such points is the one I tried to make: "there was an internal feeling of unrest".
