That’s a whole other topic.
The topic of this thread is whether it is appropriate to march US troops in a victory parade under the banners of a smiling Joseph Stalin. The Soviets were strange (and unfortunately necessary) bedfellows, nothing more.
Yes, but it goes to the fact that we had a point in time when there would have been the possibility to have Russia as an ally and it was totally botched. We might have not been faced with troops marching under a picture of Joseph Stalin.
It was a monumental screw-up of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
