guest wrote:Stalin made a pact with Hitler. Both the Americans and Russians try to take credit for defeating Hitler but the British were the true heros --they are the only ones who fought him from the beginning until the end. Russia and America used WWII to build empire the British gave their empire up. But forget about that. I suspect I know more about Putin than you can imagine. We are of a generation. Putin is one of few people who realy understands the meaning of Hitlers statement that :It is not important what people believe, it is important that people BELIEVE. Putin studied a lot or Hitlers speeches. (Ask him and maybe he will quote some of them for you. Sometimes he puts on the stress and accent and it is really very funny) Putin is a master of deception, media manipulation and dissimilation, or simply, of making people believe --whatever he wants them too. He has made many believe that Russia is a great historical nation and the Russian people are the greatest in the world and, like Hitler, that the rest of world is either inferior or decadent and decaying and Russia therefore has the right and the destiny to be above it. Putin misses feelings of greatness that the USSR gave him. He wants it back again. And he is using the capacity of people to simply BELIEVE to create it for himself. Did you know that at the beginning Hitler was good for Germany? Putin was good for Russia too... but now he is destroying it. Like Hitler did to Germany. And what now little man you are helping him to do it.
Stalin made pact with Hitler thats bad, but it isnt topic to argue about ww2 and why something was done as it was suffice to say everyone cared about his own well being including our dear future allies.
OOh british people fought in ww2 and wery bravely no one denies that, even if they had to grab thier bags and depart to England quickly wenn France was defeated they made quite an effort in defeating nazi but Second front was opened only in 44 not in 40 or 41.
Hey you know sooo much about Putin but before claim that i suggest you to leasten or read at least one of his speeches becouse you wont find ther rubbish about "gratest nation, inferior decandent all others and destiny above them". Please try to separate your imagination from reality. And if he is talking that Russia is great nation he of course right, and if he wants Russia to be respected and strong country by all means he is right we all want the same. Btw try to question americans do they think USA is grat nation? Must it be strong and respected? Do not mistacke patriots for nationalists it only speaks poorly about you, not about patriots.
