Most historians try their best to deny President Ronald Reagan had anything to do with the fall of the Berlin Wall. It was all Gorbachev's doing, they claim. But that criticism fails to take into account the moral power of Reagan's words, which Berliners remember to this day as the beginning of the end of communism. They don't need any historians to tell them the impact that speech had behind the Iron Curtain.
The dedication for the monument took place Saturday to commemorate 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
