Wrong.
Does it not seem odd that we were fighting Nazi Germany- an evil tyranny- but supporting the Soviet Union, another murderous tyranny?
Why did we not follow General Patton's advice, DO NOT support the Soviet Union, let Hitler and Stalin fight on the Eastern Front, then finish off the winner? Two problems solved.
The ironic part is what officially triggered the Second World War in Europe was Hitler invading Poland. What happens? It's handed over to Stalin. So the reason was for nothing.
As for wanting to be free- let's say I've been banned from places for pointing at ten-ton t-rexes. So no, people are too scared to be free. That is why I have absolutely no hope for the future and am glad I do not have that much longer to live.
1.All true,USA created soviets as superpower.
2.Also true,they should finish off victor of soviet-german war.
3.Yup.If they wanted gave us to somebody,then why fight at all?
4.I think i knew few T-rex like that.
There can be arguments made for and against the strategy to assist the USSR against Nazi Germany, but hindsight is 20/20 as they say. And the rest still remains history.
The fact though if Nazi Germany had remained in control of Europe....um, no, it wasn't for nothing. It would have led to something just as terrible if not infinitely worse. Holocaust, anyone? And it wasn't just Jews that were getting torched. Yes, some of the USSR's "policies" weren't much better, but the Nazis were focused on wholesale mass extermination and genocide, one group after another.
All that said, I'm wondering what you mean by "pointing at ten-ton t-rexes"?? You'll have to be more specific? Also, please specify what you define as "free" and why you think people are too scared to adhere to this? And why you have no hope for the future as you claim??
EDIT: Also one should point out after four years of fighting for the Americans, or six for the British, both countries were exhausted and no one was eager to keep fighting for potentially several more years against the USSR.
Germans,not Nazis.And they planned to kill from 50% to 85% of all slavic nations.
But,considering that soviets genocided more then 10% of their own,USA knew that,and they still gave us to soviets - they do not cared about dead slavs.
Just like they do not cared about dead jews - FDR stopped polish emissary Karski when he said about Holocaust,and started talking about horses.
More important - who say anything about long fighting? just stop delivering Lend-lease,bomb their armies,destroy refineries in Baku,and retreat from one german river to another till soviets would be out of fuel.
Then send fleet to Baltic and Poland where people waited for liberation,and cut soviet armies.
They could fight on foot,sure - but tanks and planes still needed fuel.
So by supporting the Soviet Union and thus communism we helped a tyrannical philosophy which murdered over 100 MILLION people in the 20th Century and haunts us to this day.
Somehow 100 million seems to be "wholesale slaughter."
One reason for the rise of Nazi Germany was that- if you look at a map- was that they had a front row seat to see what the Soviet Union was doing, e.g. The Holodomor, and knew that they were next. To thank us for our help we were rewarded with almost fifty years of backstabbing, and THE only reason Stalin did not take an exhausted Europe was fear of American nuclear weapons.
As for ten-ton t-rexes- sorry, but no. Been banned for it, so no.
Only reason why soviets not attacked was Sralin death.If his cronies do not murder him,we would have WW3 about 1956 year.Pity,that it never happened.
P.S HAPPY EASTER !!!!!!!
