It was designed by the Soviets ... during the Kruschev days.
They placed a slightly different value on human life from we in the West.
The United States tortures to death unborn children to the tune of nearly 2 million a year. I'd say we surpassed Stalin and Hitler put together.
And we wonder why God is allowing us to be overrun by our enemies, some of them the same race as overran the Jews in the days of the prophets.
“It was designed by the Soviets ... during the Kruschev days.”
Yes, after the original was designed by the Germans at the end of WWII. I was reading about how bad these were for the advancing Russian troops. They would get their tanks hit, it would get left behind the advance, they would pull the bodies and pieces thereof out of it, weld up the hole, get another crew, and send the tank back into the fight. Every street in a city was a killing zone, and those tanks were very lightly armored on the sides.
