I don't know where you get your estimate, but either they are severely biased, or taking into account people who died during WWII, and thus, whose death is Hitler's fault.The Estimated Death toll of Stalin's cruelty was 54 million, not 30.
If it's not taking account of WWII casualties, then it's screwed up, cause a country like USSR couldn't have lost 54 + 20 + 20 = 94 millions of people in a few decades and achieved to become a major technological and military power in the meanwhile.
Anyway, if you got that way, 54 millions is still lower than the total of 60 millions killed during WWII (once again, that's Hitler's fault. Stalin would probably have invaded Eastern Europe later, but who knows ?). And Hitler's reign was shorter than Stalin's one.
Totally agree, and that's why I think Hitler was far worse than Lenine, Stalin or Mao. As soon as he decided to launch the final solution and to create extermination camps, he became worse than anyone who lived on this planet.But, in murder, size doesn't, or shouldn't matter.Ordering the death of 1 is as despicable as ordering the death of 1 million, cause the value of human life cannot be measured.
As long as average mean 'no socialist, no gay, member of the NASDAP and of german origin', yeah that would have been alright. But replace german by Slave, and here we go.Well as an average citizen germany
As if it didn't happen in GermanyUnder the soviets however, there were no rules. If you looked at someone the wrong way, or even if your neighbor just disliked you, you could be put on some list somewhere and end up dead.![]()
No way. Germany was France and UK ideological opponent, much more than USSR. Both countries were trying to form an alliance with USSR in 1938 (before the germano-soviet pact). As soon as the Munich treaty was signed, everyone knew war would start at some point, and *if* Hitler would have decided to invade USSR before France, France and UK would have declared war on Germany at some point.The situation of Germany in the case of an attack against ussr would have been much better than what it was in 1941 : France would have remained neutral or maybe friendly and Great Britain probably friendly.
And fascist countries weren't seen as neutral by conservatives from France and UK, except if conservative means 'fascist'...
So, basically, you admit that operation Overlord was just a way to stop USSR, and not to kick the Germans out of Western Europe ? It kinda kills the 'We saved you althought it was contrary to our interests' arguing you use each time you're speaking about France, hehWhen it was clear Russia would win we stepped in to stop them from taking over more terrirtory.![]()
