Commonly forgotten in history is the fact that BOTH the Third Reich and the Soviet Union started WWII together. The Germans did not invade Poland all by themselves.

Excellent point and one I've not considered previously. Great Britain and France had promised to come to Poland's aid if invaded by Germany....but not a peep was raised when Russia went in.

Well, when the declared war a day or two later, that might be considered a peep. They weren’t able to help much, it’s true.
