Unfortunately. every President since Eisenhower has had to declare this week. supported by the proclamations of Governors and mayors throughout the country. While Captive Nations Week began in the fifties. oppression did not. The conflict between those who would choose to be free. and those who value dominance and power over freedom has been unending. A sad example of this conflict in modern times occurred in 1940 when the Baltic nations were invaded and occupied by Stalins oppressive regime. Later. the citizens of these countries were deported to the Soviet Union while their lands were colonized by Russians. It was an all too familiar pattern of Soviet aggression. Now we see the struggles of Poland and Afghanistan.
