We stand for organized terror - this should be frankly
admitted. Terror is an absolute necessity during times of
revolution. Our aim is to fight against the enemies of the
Soviet Government and of the new order of life. We judge
quickly. In most cases only a day passes between the
apprehension of the criminal and his sentence. When
confronted with evidence criminals in almost every case
confess, and what argument can have greater weight than
a criminal's own confession
- Felix Dzerzhinsky,
1918

the berlin blockade was an international crisis that arose from an attempt by the soviet union, in 1948–49, to force the western allied powers (the united states, the united kingdom, and france) to abandon their post-world war ii jurisdictions in west berlin. in march 1948 the allied powers decided to unite their different occupation zones of germany into a single economic unit. in protest, the soviet representative withdrew from the allied control council. coincident with the introduction of a new deutsche mark in west berlin (as throughout west germany), which the soviets regarded as a violation of agreements with the allies, the soviet occupation forces in eastern germany began a blockade of all rail, road, and water communications between berlin and the west. on june 24 the soviets announced that the four-power administration of berlin had ceased and that the allies no longer had any rights there.
