No one can have missed it… Today it’s 20 years ago the Berlin Wall was taken down, and soon after the communist control of Eastern Europe and Russia was lost – and thanks God for that.
So today I am sharing the joy with the German people. At the time 20 years ago, I was not so interested in these kind of things, but now after have been involved in the fight for human rights in China the last decade, I realise that this was a huge moment in history.
Here is a very educational timeline from Columbia Missourian:
