- I believe that the Czechs use the cyrillic alphabet, so that there
- could be more than one way to speel the name. But the
- accepted and customary way to spell it is "Dubcek."
-
- That aside, Dubcek was not the man who crushed the Prague Spring
- in 1968. Rather, it was he who, through his policy of creating
- "Communism with a human face," brought bout the "Prague
- Spring."
-
- It was the soviets, and their premier Leonid Brezhnev, the "evil empire"
- which the republicans rightfully battled; the same soviet union that
- bill clinton visited one year later, who cruelly crushed the
- movement.
