The Russian people suffered horribly under ninety years of evil communism. Yet will always wonder how many current Americans would have not come to exist if the Russians, who suffered horrendous casualties, had not fought the Germans so well and had not destroyed the best of the German war machine. If America had to attack Europe against a relatively intact German army,wonder how many of our grandfathers and fathers would have never returned to procreate.

And if the Soviets didn’t help to feed the German war machine from 1939 to June 21, 1941.

Yes, correct. The Soviets lost enormous numbers of soldiers to the NAZIs. As I recall, on the Eastern Front, the casualties were about 5 Soviet to 1 NAZI. The Soviets just kept attacking, with a lot of American supplies, and won.

Nice thought but US industrialists helped stalin create his industrial base in the 1930s. Vast quantities of US arms flowed into the soviet union during WWII to help Stalin win the war in the east. Stalin’s men fought bravely. But they could not have won without American weapons and supplies.

In addition, the US fought the Germans in the West and the Japanese in the East.

Lets not forget Old Joe was happy to stroll down the garden path with Old Adolf until Adolf decided he didn’t need a partner anymore.

If it weren’t for the capitalist West, in particular America Old Joe would have been toast.
