From the article: “World War II began after Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union sealed a pact in 1939 that included a secret provision to carve up Poland and other parts of Eastern Europe.”
That’s an outright lie. Germany did not attack Poland until after they invaded France and other countries. Only when the Luftwaffe could not beat the RAF did Hitler turn to Poland. The war was well under way long before Russia got into it.
?
Are you that seriously ignorant?
Did you learn your history in publik skule? France and Britain did not even declare war on Germany until they invaded Poland - that is when the war started.
Ugh, you are the only one I've ever heard of that said that. These are the generally accepted dates:
Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact: August 23, 1939 (When "Russia got into it.")
German Invasion of Poland: September 1, 1939 (The official start of World War II; The Russians invaded Poland on September 17, 1939)
The Phoney War: October 1939 - April 1940 (Britain and France had declared war on Germany, but took no action; Poland was conquered and had a resistance army in France; no countries took ny military action against Germany)
The invasion of France: May 10, 1940 (France effectively surrendered by June 25, 1940)
The Blitz: September 7, 1940 - May 21, 1941 (Germany bombed Britain)
German invasion of Russia: June 22, 1941 (Germany invaded their ally, the USSR, which had invaded Poland with them in September, 1939)
Just curious as to what country you were educated in?
???????????????????????
was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor???
Thats an outright lie. Germany did not attack Poland until after they invaded France and other countries. Only when the Luftwaffe could not beat the RAF did Hitler turn to Poland. The war was well under way long before Russia got into it.

I’m assuming you have confused the actions of September 1939 with the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941.
You may want to give it a google.
