I wonder if Obozo knows or even cares that Stalin followed up that striking symbol of brotherhood in arms by later ordering the execution of every man that came into contact with Americans at the Elbe. It’s erie watching the documentary footage of the event, knowing that every poor smiling Sov. was stood against a wall and shot by their own leader simply for being “contaminated” by the West.
Anti-U.S. military, you bet.
But any Army with Red in the title is to be paid homage.
Soetoro treated the fall of the Berlin Wall as a tragedy, and didn’t find room in his remarks to mention Reagan, Thatcher, or JPII.
But Stalin’s seizing of Easter Europe is something to celebrate!
Of course, we already knew Soetoro was a Communist.
Elbe River Meeting - that’s when Eisenhower obeyed the New World Order and held our armies back until the Russians were where they wanted them.
I’d never before heard of this incident or the annual commemoration of it, but it does seem to have gone on for some time.
This old newspaper account (link below) from 1959 says that reunions between US and Soviet veterans have been held since 1955. It also mentions “The American veterans arrived Tuesday. They will be guests at the Soviet May Day parade in Moscow.”

Perhaps there will be an “Elbe River” moment on the Potomac when Patriot forces unite after driving the Obamulans down from New England and up from the Southeast to their defeat and unconditional surrender in DC.
