“Why did Britain and France declare war on Germany in the first place? Do you know?”

The had pledged to support Poland.

Exactly. Better we stay on good terms with Russia before China woos them.

Trump should take Zelenski with him if/when he goes to Moscow.

More fake history? What’s wrong with Finland today?
And if you guys like the idea of ‘Soviet-Nazi alliance’ against Poland why don’t you see the Nazi-Polish alliance against Czechoslovakia? Not only Polish cooperation with the Nazis included dismembering Czechoslovakia, Polish government also blocked the Soviet-French mutual defence treaty to help the Nazis deal with both separately.
And let’s be fair. The Soviets ‘stealing Polish land’ has merely took back territories annexed by Poland from Ukraine in 1920.

“” “” Trump should take Zelenski with him if/when he goes to Moscow.”” “”

.. to shine shoes? I think Zelensky is seating on a burning throne right now. If he goes to Moscow on May 9 he is not coming back.

Finland got screwed over because they were forced to side with the axis powers. Even know they should’ve been on the allies side. This created a great deal of problems for them in the years to come.

Please stop it!
U make too much sense...

If any of you can remember, Russia tried to be part of NATO.
Just saying....

There is lot more to that, but the hate against Russia is too deep here.
No point of going any farther.

The Poles attacked CZ 2x in 28 and, was it 38 or 36?
Can’t remember now.
But you right, they used Germany to try to steal land from CZ.
CZ was to occupied with he western border @ the time.
I think, if Austria didn’t fold so early, CZ could have taken Germany down by itself.

What the USSR troops did to the people of Berlin, rubble and all, when the Soviets took the city, was brutal. Lots of elderly, children, women-oh, the women.

It was blood lust and revenge-but on largely the wrong people. One Soviet soldier raped a daughter, mother, and grandmother, in front of one of the boys-who was shot in mid-rape when he tried to intervene.

“During that first year of Soviet occupation in 1945, more than 100,000 women in Berlin were (apparently +/-50 percent). Combined with the German women caught in Pomerania, Silesia, and East Prussia during the mass exodus, the number of rape victims soars to roughly 2 million. Many of them subsequently committed suicide.”

Afterwards, people were marched off to the East or to the Gulags. Some Soviet army men were proud of “2 million of their children born in Germany.”

See: https://www.hoover.org/research/contest-brutality

And read some of the comments at the article, one from a student of child escapee who became one of his teachers.

If you can find images or footage of those who survived Berlin, you’ll see what I mean. Almost zombies.

Russians lost apparently 22 mm people. I once worked with someone who mentioned in passing that the USSR had so many female physicians because of all the dead men in WWII.

I am not saying and did not say USSR women deserved it. It’s also well-known what happens during conquest. The individual stories show some different perspectives, when those stories can be found.

Like in this link, about killing a table full of children who were found sitting in front of potato pancakes, their tongues nailed to the table. See: https://pictureshistory.blogspot.com/2009/10/frau-komm-rape-german-women-ww2.html

I am still in shock seeing a Washington Post headline that wasn’t an insult to President Trump.

I intend to celebrate this momentous occasion!

Just imagine, the Nazis would come to US and destroyed the country, killing 30 mill of Americans. many women raped shot in the back of their heads.
Some of them your sisters, cousins, God mothers, you name it.

You fight inch by inch for thousands of miles to get to Berlin, loosing your brothers, uncles, cousins along the way. Maybe your father next to you, who you loved sooo much.
Just stabbed with a bayonet in front of your eyes.

You starve, freeze, don’t take shower or bath for years.
Your feet, hands are beyond recognition. filthy, disgusting.

Now you reach Germany.
How do you feel now?
Get a grip, man

Most people do not understand what happened in Europe after Germany was conquered. Americans to today don’t know about Russia after the war was over.

The number of Russian deaths is incomprehensible, beyond reasonable understanding. Not only that but it was at least the third time that Russia at war experienced deaths simply beyond comprehension.

Having defeated the Germans and occupying all the territory between Allied occupied Germany and Mother Russia, a decision was made to maintain Poland and all that land as a buffer against future invasion from Germany or some other European nation.

Poland was and in fact is just in the way. If there was to be another invasion, the war will be fought in Poland or Hungary or Romania and not on Russian soil.

Americans get upset over one death in Afghanistan. Russians killed on Russian soil by the Germans number in the millions. I posted earlier the fact written by the historian Victor David Hansen, that more Russians were killed by German aggressors in the siege of Leningrad than all the Americans who died in the entirety of WW II.

I do not overlook the fact that the vicious dictator Stalin killed lots and lots of Russians, but that is not relevant ot the Russian occupation of Poland and other nations to close the invasion routes and serve as a protective buffer

Poland has the historical and geographical misfortune of being in the way.
