"Stop sending people to kill me," Tito once wrote to [[Joseph Stalin]].  "If you don't stop sending killers, I'll send one to Moscow, and I won't have to send a second."  [[Stalin]] expelled the [[Yugoslav Communist Party]] on June 28, 1948.  Tito was perhaps the only person who stood up to Stalin and survived.
