Forgotten story of Polish nuns gang-raped and made pregnant by advancing Soviet troops [tr}
UK Daily Mail ^ | October 2, 2016 | Darren Boyle

As Hitler's troops withdrew from Poland in 1945, Stalin's Red Army advanced towards Berlin. Instead of liberation, the Soviet troops raped and pillaged as they followed the retreating Nazis.  In January 1945, as the war continued, French authorities sent Dr Madeleine Pauliac to Moscow to assist with the efforts to repatriate any French prisoners of war discovered by the Soviets.

The rear echelons of the Red Army could best be described as an armed rabble that would of made Genghis Khan proud

What do you think Genghis Khan would have made of the Einsatzgruppen?

Are you implying that people who criticize the murderous history and other various barbaric actions of the Soviet Union should somehow “suffer the consequences” should it return?

All Wars are Bankers Wars.

The bankers and the industrialists never paid for their crimes. Your enemy Nazis bought their truck engines from Ford Motor. Your uncle got the bullet.

“German behavior in Russia was a bit rude as well.”

I’m no fan of the Soviets, but nothing the Soviets did approaches the mass murder committed at Babi Yar and throughout the Western USSR. Ilya Ehrenberg warned the Germans; “Bread for Bread, Blood for Blood. This was revenge.

The Soviets murdered about 3 times as many people as Hitler did.

MH17 missile 'came from Russia', Dutch-led investigators say

bbc.com ^ | 28 September 2016 | BBC

International prosecutors say Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was downed over eastern Ukraine in 2014 by a Buk missile that had come from Russia.

They also narrowed down the area it was fired from to a field in territory controlled by Russian-backed rebels.

All 298 people on board the Boeing 777 died when it broke apart in mid-air flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.

"As Hitler's troops withdrew from Poland in 1945, Stalin's Red Army advanced towards Berlin."


Above: Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov signs the Nazi-Soviet Non-aggression Pact while German Foreign Minister Von Ribbentrop and Soviet leader Stalin look on under a portrait of Lenin, August 23, 1939.

News of the Pact stunned the world and paved the way for the beginning of World War Two with Hitler assured the Germans would not have to fight a war on two fronts.

Putin was KGB.

George HW Bush was CIA head.

Both are the equivalent of Secret Police.

...speaking of Nuns and Mao...

Here's former Obama communications director, Anita Dunn, praising mass-murderer Mao Tse Tung and his communist revolution before an audience of graduating ** high-schoolers**!("St. Andrews Episcopal school at the Washington National Cathedral"). A video link is provided at the end of this post.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Anita Dunn: "The third lesson and tip actually comes from two of my favorite political philosophers, Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa. Not often coupled with each other, but the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is: You're going to make choices. ... But here's the deal: These are your choices; they are no one else's.

"In 1947, when Mao Tse Tung was being challenged within his own party on his own plan to basically take China over, Chiang Kai-Shek and the nationalist Chinese held the cities, they had the army. ... They had everything on their side. And people said 'How can you win? How can you do this against all of the odds against you?'

"And Mao Tse Tung says, 'You fight your war and I'll fight mine.' You don't have to accept the definition of how to do things. ... You fight your war, you let them fight theirs. Everybody has their own path."..."
___________________________________________________________

Policies implemented under Mao Tse Tung, including the civil war, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, and persecution in Tibet, among other policies, led to death of an estimated 65 million people, according to The Black Book of Communism (Harvard University Press), which is considered by scholars as one of the best sources on communist atrocities.

Mao also outlawed religion and sent at least 2.5 million people to "re-education camps," called "laogai," which were similar to the slave-labor camps in the Gulag of the Soviet Union. An estimated 1,000 laogai reportedly are still in operation today

Maybe they didn’t know what would occur?! The rape scene - which is handled with sensitivity - is still horrific. I feel for the two actresses who had to film that scene. Must have been painful.

It’s Illegal now in #Russia to tweet this photo, so clearly it’s worth sharing. Molotov and Himmler shaking hands in #Berlin, Nov 1940

I'm reading a book called Marching Orders: The Untold Story of How the American Breaking of the Japanese Secret Codes Led to the Defeat of Nazi Germany and Japan. 

With unprecedented access to over one million pages of US Army documents and thousands of pages of top-secret messages dispatched to Tokyo from the Japanese embassy in Berlin, author Bruce Lee offers a series of fascinating revelations about pivotal moments in the war.

A lot of things that we thought we understood in WWII are augmented/undermined from reading top secret Japanese communication between Tokyo and Berlin, Moscow, and the Axis.

I recently watched the movie “Katyn” which is based on the 1940 massacre of some 20,000 Polish military officers and intelligentsia at the hands of Soviet troops. Like the article you posted, I had never heard of the Katyn Massacre.

"On 10 April 2010, a Tupolev Tu-154 aircraft of the Polish Air Force crashed near the city of Smolensk, Russia, killing all 96 people on board.

Among the victims were the President of Poland Lech Kaczynski and his wife Maria, the former President of Poland in exile Ryszard Kaczorowski, the chief of the Polish General Staff and other senior Polish military officers, the president of the National Bank of Poland, Polish Government officials, 18 members of the Polish Parliament, senior members of the Polish clergy and relatives of victims of the Katyn massacre.

The group was arriving from Warsaw to attend an event marking the 70th anniversary of the [Katyn] massacre, which took place not far from Smolensk."

Yes, it is an important book, and many of my Japanese friends agrees that if the atomic bombs were not used the Japanese would not have surrendered.
