How many African Americans survived the Civil War? How many marines were killed in the Battle of Tarawa? How many soldiers died in the Irish Civil War? How many casualties were there on the Eastern Front in WWI? How many Mexicans were killed in the Cristero War?
minister might be feeding you these lies, but I strongly recommend as an antidote a quick google of "Fascism", the German Nazi's support of Franco in Spain in his horrific supression of leftists in the 1930's, and how many real leftists fought and died against them throughout the 1930...
