As long as Christianity exists the ideals of Communism will as those are directly based on the Bible itself in which people are taught to love one's neighbor like oneself. Sharing bread and fishes, not to want to have more than your neighbor has, all principles on which the communist ideals are based. The fact that we attacked the Soviet Union from the moment it was created with troops from all sides forced them to be defensive and ultimately paranoic. Had they not have to live under the constant treat of our agression it might have been a totally different kind of society without all the horrid oppression that took place. Guantanamo Bay also isn't anywhere near what normal people would consider to be within the laws of decency and democracy, that too was created out of fear.
