lava, meaning 'a stream caused suddenly by rain' and applied it to the
streams of molten rock coming down the sides of Vesuvius. The term was

the earliest date of record.

Lenin,
Vladimir
Ilich. Known as Nikolai Lenin, 1870-1924. Russian
founder of the Bolsheviks,
who slaughtered the
Romanovs and millions of others.
Cabal
puppet leader who started the Russian Revolution in 1917 with people duped
into believing Lenin and his comrades
as leaders of the people, could make things better, of course they got
worse as communists, being satanic and hating God are always lying
about absolutely everything:.John
8:44. They continue to spout the same nonsense, 'it's better for you',
'it'll protect you', it's safe and effective', 'it'll keep you safe &
well', etc. Lenin was first head of the U.S.S.R. (Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics) during 1917-1924. As an advocate
of
communistic.propositions,
Lenin held that workers could not develop a revolutionary
consciousness without guidance from his views on communism. Lenin
is an example of why We
the People MUST be in charge of government.
Obviously he was a wicked controller. Lenin like the other
cabal puppets was a controller Satan
used towards hurting good people. That's always the dark side's plan.
