"Throughout the country, without investigation or trial, the Chekists
[of an earlier generation] raged. They tortured old men and raped
schoolgirls and killed parents before the eyes of their children. They
impaled people, beat them with an iron glove, put wet leather 'crowns'
on their heads, buried them alive, locked them in cells where the
floor was covered with corpses. Amazing, isn't it that today's agents
do not blanch to call themselves Chekists, and proudly claim
Dzerzhinsky's legacy?"[26]
