WIPE OUT all these Kalmyk Mongols! These were animals and thieves and barbarians who wandered like Gypsy nomad Mongol killers from Siberia to these lands in Caucasus, STALIN WAS 100% right! He should even send them to China.
Way to side step the Chechen issue!!! Don't even go there, leave it at a mere mention!! I am sure even if they wanted to, Chechens are not allowed to tell their tale of suffering which continues to this very day.
So 900 years of Islamic rule from Morocco to India was based on a fairytale ideology? Lol I hope you realize that Islamic contribution to world civilization moved the world forward into the enlightenment and renaissance.
The only reason muslims haven't contributed much in the last 200 years is because of colonization, and western imperialism. With the reestablishment of Khilfah the world will look to Muslim leaders as the world once looked to leaders like John F. Kennedy
@Azamspazam91 yes, you got that right, its fairytale criminal ideology, its maybe even worst than fascism and belongs to dump of history. The world will celebrate once the Islam is gone
What? Too scared? Think you'll come out an angry bearded terrorist that oppresses women and kills all people who think differently? Cuz thats what Islam is all about right?
@Azamspazam91 no thats how muslims behave, im sure you can interpret the book in many ways, but then you are not real muslim, because its not allow to interpret quran, only follow it
@GreenShadedThing "A Ruler usually appoints people to watch over their subjects. I appoint you a watcher over me and my behavior. If you find me at fault in word or action guide me and stop me from doing it."
-Fifth caliph of Islam (682-720 AD)
Realize; the Muslim world has been in the dark ages since WW1
@GreenShadedThing WOW Millions!? lolll who's history are you studying?
Thats not what was said in my South Asia before Colonialism class. Muslims conquered India and brought it to its greatest heights and coordinated professionally and respectfully with peoples of other religions compared to the dark ages of Europe. Islam sets the standard for justice.
Unjust muslims tarnish the name of Islam. I hope you realize that muslims since 1800s have been very poor representatives of Islam.
@Azamspazam91 ok so this is probably time for some quotations:
Hindu Kush, i.e. Hindu slaughter. The Bahmani sultans (1347-1480) in central India made it a rule to kill 100,000 captives in a single day, and many more on other occasions.
As a contribution to research on the quantity of the Islamic crimes against humanity, we may mention that the Indian (subcontinent) population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate)..
@GreenShadedThing Thats not research. Thats quoting whoever you want that meets your own narrow minded view.
You do realize that there were millions of people slaughtered in cold blod all throughout the world especially throughout the world wars. Take the armenian genocide for example- this was done by Ottoman turkish "Muslims."
But what happened following that? Allah destroyed the Ottoman empire because of these crimes. We can't represent Islam for too long if we don't follow its principles
those are historical facts.Its hard to talk with you when your narrow view is:Allah destroyed the Ottoman empire.You are no more rational.Back to the farytales.have a nice life im done.
@GreenShadedThing You think rational is the only source of knowledge. thats where we differ. Logic and reason is a tool for knowledge. But if you don't believe a higher force is at play then you are ignorant of a large part of reality.
Knowledge and skill don't mean anything if there is no moral guidance behind it; and that is the role of religion.
Allah destroyed the ottomans just as he will destroy the regime of Bashar al Assad and
why dont you go help Allah to Homs, because he could sure use some extra hand, they way I see it anyway. Stop pointing fingers at god or allah or anybody when your plans go south. Do something about it.
Watch this, wait and see. Victory will be given to the Muslims : )
We give our full trust and it makes us invincible. But the precondition is that we are first people of truth and justice. Otherwise Allah disgraces us.
watch what? send me a link that works. Victory to the muslims? I dont about that. Israel is killing muslims like fish in a barrel? God busy or maybe he turned off his phone? How does he help in this particular case?
Tens of thousands give inspiring pledge to Allah in Homs, Syria [Dec 2011] - MUST SEE!
After the revolution in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya who came out on top? The Muslim Brotherhood. Who is in charge of Gaza Strip? The Muslim Brotherhood. Elections in Kuwait? Victory to the Muslim brotherhood.
Who will win in Syria? The Muslim Brotherhood.
Israel's time is limited. Iran is the least of its concerns
@GreenShadedThing You're completely missing the contributions of the Mughals to the development of the civil society, state administration, economy and social stability of the subcontinent.
Do you really think that the Mughal Empire was a reign of terror over India for hundreds of years? Do you really think Islam would spread so far if it was about oppression? Study Islam at its peak - the Khilafah Rashidun.
"The people of Homs replied [to the Muslims], "We like your rule and justice far better than the state of oppression and tyranny in which we were. The army of Heraclius we shall indeed, with your 'amil's' help, repulse from the city." The Jews rose and said, "We swear by the Torah, no governor of Heraclius shall enter the city of Homs unless we are first vanquished and exhausted!" [...]
@GreenShadedThing The inhabitants of the other cities—Christian and Jews—that had capitulated to the Muslims, did the same [...] When by Allah's help the "unbelievers" were defeated and the Muslims won, they opened the gates of their cities, went out with the singers and music players who began to play,
This is first hand account of the rule of Islam. similar events happened when the Muslims conquered Spain and ruled it for 800 years. Islam is not unjust. PEOPLE are when they dont follow it.
@GreenShadedThing Don't judge Islam on how muslims behave. We hanvn't followed Islam since the 1800s when Ottomans would steal sons from their subjects and force them into the military.
"we were following orders"... sometimes I think that only a few humans are able to think and to refuse to follow stupid orders from stupid dictators. The russians were as dumb as the germans that followed Hitler without questioning
To deportate so many ethnic groups is like saying you want to move all the people of Los Angeles into the Rocky Mountains and just abandon them there.....
'look up the real history of the British Empire, not the Leftist, revisionalist, rewriting of history, ' I spent years researching at the public records office in Kew with original documents examining the use of British forces in counter insurgency post 1945. The 'massacres which take place today' I am at a loss for this but instability both political and military in these countries can be attributed in part to British foreign policy in terms of governments we supported and groups we suppressed
@alanheath3 Further being published by no means verifies ones knowledge or understanding of a topic. Waterstones is full of WW2 books which fail totally to distinguish between tactics and strategy and obsess on simplified armchair topics such as 'How the Spitfire Won WW2' which I can assure you it did not!
@alanheath3 'Examine the Role of the Police in Counter Insurgency Operations (COIN) Through the Experience of the British Empire and Commonwealth 1945 - 2009' & 'What part did Long Range Heavy Aerial Bombing play in the defeat of Japan in the Second World War?' these are my work and used interviews conducted by myself and original documentation. These were peer reviewed by the late Prof Homes, Prof Gray and Dr Nusbacher. My 'credentials are BA(Hons) and MA (Dist) (Warfare/History)
Amazing how "we were only following orders" will suffice for the victors but not the vanquished. Victors write the history books and the propaganda that follows.
not true if what you are trying to say is that i committed war crimes or was sat at a desk, i find both of those comments offensive, explain to me when the armed forces of the uk knowing killed civillians, by such means as mass shootings, or deliberate targeting of civillians and no i served in a front line unit and was part of a professional army and the uk has not illegally occupied any where or been in any illegal war zones out of interest what country are you from
@petere101 Boer War, Mutiny's in India (numerous) Actions in Malaya, Kenya in the 1950s, Fire bombing campaigns of the 2nd World War, The Blockade of Germany in WW1 (estimated civilian dead 100,000) The list goes on as these are from the top of my head. Yes the UK has not gunned down millions or gassed millions in an isolated incident and we are not on a par with Russia or the Germans in WW2 but I can assure you the UK armed forces HAVE in the past targeted civilians for strategic gains.
@burntfaceman86 The jist of your comment is summed up in the last few lines, only you should have spelt PAST in capitals not HAVE also llook up the real history of the British Empire, not the Leftist, revisionalist, rewriting of history, while i agree that terrible things took place in British colonies and protectorates, these countries themselves have killed more of their own citizens since independance, India during partition and since,
massacres take place in Kenya and Malyasia every day
@burntfaceman86 Germany was not blockaded by the British in WW1??? The only blockade stopped the Atlantic trade, Germany was well enough connected to Austro Hungary, Switzerland and the Baltic and following its defeat of Russia to that country as well.
@alanheath3 Germany was subject to what would be classed as a open blockade as described/predicted by British Naval strategist Julian Corbett . To quote the National Archives (UK) 'Official German government statistics attributed nearly 763,000 wartime deaths in Germany to starvation caused by the blockade'
Germany, Austro Hungary, and Russia from 1917 with a civil war were all deficient in food resources let alone other war materials.
i served for 25 years in the armed forces of my country but would never have obeyed an illegal order, as the nazis did and shoot civilians, let alone murder women and children
@petere101 that's about shite cause if you were in one of the Occupied places or illegal war zones that your deteriorating country has killed women and children hun than you wouldn't lasted 25 years without doing illegal actions many times ,unless you had a desk job, maybe then.
@petere101 When I was in the Army, every recruit was given a book in which it said that you cannot be ordered to do illegal acts (which were listed).
However something similar was also written in the paybook of soliders of the German Army in WW2 - something to the effect of ' .. such acts are below the dignity of the German soldier ..' It did not stop them then.
@lonelyboyll That's why IHL can't work.... That is why armies, no matter whose, are turned into murder machines. And today, in a war, you're better off being a soldier than a civilian. Just look at the figures. A uniform is a license to murder. I know this will get all kinds of hysterical responses, but it's a fact, so let us not deny it.
@Snafuski in peace, we also have to obey the orders of another person like our boss and in war it's officer command. Your question: When will people stop following orders?. Answer: when we have everything for our ambition and social has no class differentiate.
@lonelyboyll alas, alas.... you are absolutely right. And believe it or not, I argue with my bosses (I am a freelancer, so I have several) and when an "order" is ethically questionable, I disobey it. I have lost jobs because of it, but I will not carry them out. Nor will I buy stock that is dripping in blood. All we have to do is use our brains a little...
@Snafuski you're a courage man, i really think so. Most people think they don't have responsibility to explain the order, they just do it ..... Ortherwise, if they're fired, it'll difficult to get a better job. So they used the brain but they didn't have enough courage to disobey "the order".
@lonelyboyll You're right.... most people simply can't and if you have a family to feed, you are stuck, sort of. I also have a famnily to feed. But I have found that good bosses will even appreciate if you think for them. It avoids them having to think. My worst experiences: with American companies, where middle managers carry out the orders, and you can never speak to those above them. It's feudal. :-)
@lonelyboyll Go for it.... BTW, I worked at a major international humanitarian organization.... met the worst boss ever, she is causing the organization endless grief, she has hurt people extremely badly, butshe is there, because she knows about power. Itßs a disgrace to the organization, but no one touches her.... like Mubarak... until recently. :-)
I hope you find a good boss (the one who offers you a cup of coffee while you are working is the best one)
Idiot russians have no right to brag about how all world should be grateful to them for killing nazis...pfff whats the diferance if german killed inocent people and deported them to camps and commited war crimes if russians did the same ! fucking scum comunists !!! i think all of that was hidden because no one wanted a ww3 alies vs ussr and in witch case it was very undemocratic desition of alies to be bullied by russians allowind deportations killings and anaxation of some countrys.
@Guitarnoob99 Stalin moved people around; Hitler slaughtered them. That critical difference escapes the notice of bigots. The reason Russia was not attacked: invasion of Russia had been tried after WWI & was a miserable failure.
Yes he did, but he moved them to die slow death, he also orderd to shoot SUPOSED traitors which was kind of paranoid. Still if it would be one sort of killing or another it doesnt make him any better than hitler, do you agree ? yeah i think so to that at that poin just after ww2 russia was the strongest millitary power in the world and no one would dare attac as it would mean failure, however if allies would have had the army bigger than ussr, i think they would dare to say more
@Guitarnoob99 Oh horse feathers. There is a huge difference between gathering people to send them to chambers filled with poison gas & ordering them to leave the area. In WWI, one of my grandfathers was forced to leave along with all of his fellow villagers from a place they had lived for years. Assuredly a large fraction died along the trip. He got smallpox and almost died himself. There's no way that was murder. Similarly, Stalin's moving people was not murder.
Whel as much as this is fun to stand up for what i say, it takes a lot of time to write long messages and if you want we can continue this conversation in private. Ammm so than tel me are you trying to say russians were good and not bad, are you defendinf russians ? where are you from ? just to make it fair and short ill answer my questions to be fair 1. I have my reasons to say what i say and why i go against ussr 2. Im from Lithuania
@Guitarnoob99 I am from the US & am arguing that the USSR and Nazi Germany are not morally equivalent. Arguing here is far better. A drunk driver can induce a lingering, painful death from infection after injuring a pedestrian. An angry husband can quickly shoot his straying wife in the brain. The two acts are not morally equivalent, the former being homicide other than murder, the latter being murder.
whel ok than you got my view on everything and for me nacizm and communism are bad. As i mentioned before the only heroes to me in ww2 are the allies. If you were from any of the eastern europe countrys you would understand why i think so but sadly you dont get it at all.
@Guitarnoob99 Fascist enterprise was infinitely worse. Within a few decades, Japan, Italy, & Germany induced war that slaughtered an estimated 60,000,000 persons. Had Stalin not crushed Hitler, all the slavs except those needed for slave labor, would have been gassed. 3,000,000 Poles were gassed. Do you really believe anyone could have not gassed the remainder? Every Pole left would have killed as many Nazis as they could. Hitler knew this.
@Guitarnoob99 You do not answer a reasoned argument with evidence or an assault upon its logic; therefore you lose. Unknown is why distinctions well-recognized in ordinary life between reckless/negligent homicide & murder are beyond your understanding. The chief crime of WW2 was aggressive military conquest of entire continents. Everything else stemmed from that.
This video features WW2 Russia and Germany so why are there comments about the USA/Indians, USA/Japanese-Americans, Spain - Florida - Gen. Jackson - Civil War, and the USA/Mexico?
You know full well that these horny Russians and Germans, besides raping women and girls, were screwing each other, horses, ponies, cows, sheep etc etc.
How did the Kalmyks even end up on the west side of the Caspian sea? It's clear they were descendents of Mongolians but how did they retain their Buddhist faith? Usually as Turkic and/or Mongolian moved westward they tended to drop their Shamanist/Buddhists faith for Islam but the Kalmyks somehow retained their Buddhism?
@lukebccb Agreed. I learned something tonight in that there are Buddhist peoples in Europe just as there are Bosnian Moslems. Close ups show the Asian lineage in Stalin, a Georgian.
I just love how this documentary is fully of old punks like this Semichastny, who offer up lame-ass excuses for their crimes like, "well, it just would have taken too much time to consider the evidence against the accused, so we just deported them post haste."
@NoJeanNoMoney1 It's hard to give rational excuse for actions that seem totataly irrational and inhumane these days. One should judge them after considering "would I have done differently?" In many cases in this documentary I would say "yes!" but who knows what would I do when i'm put into the situation. Life was cheap
I dont like how the narrator compares Stalin to Hitler "and Stalin was relocating kalmyks...". How about re-location of Japanese Americans in the U.S???
@greekvvedge Are you sure about that?? Pal, you need to educate yourself better - read up on the subject, please before posting such a nonsense. Yes, they did not die in gulags but they did in "uslags". Sure, not that many died there, but the fact of such horrible discrimination in a "free country"...
yeah, i'm pretty sure about it. ask a current Japanese American what they think of the U.S.A, now ask a Chechen, Pontic Greek, Kazakh, Ukranian, Tatar, etc. what they think of the U.S.S.R. You don't have to go so far in your statements. It hurts what little point you have.
@greekvvedge your "current" americans don't know history well (as well as other subjects) and they didn't live through it (and hopefully won't), that's why I said you need to get your facts straight. And I'm not trying to defend Stalin here, all I'm saying that narrator is too subjective here - why not call the documentary "World's dictators" then? Otherwise it's lopsided and sounds like cold war times propaganda.
No mention of the millions of refugee and emigre anti communist russians ,POWs, forced labourers and cossaks that were forcibly deported back into Stalins murderous hands by the allies at the end of the war, that were immediately murdered within earshot of the british and americans. Operation Keelhaul. The western allies are also guilty of war crimes.
@ryko26 What a typical response of a German. How horrible the Russians are--they deported people and stole from the countries that invaded them--while you say nothing about the German army's widespread premeditated murder of children and women. Brutal? The German mentality at this time was inhuman
@rubiconsedge I'm not German, I'm English. I just find the Russian's inhumanity to each other extraordinary, almost the match of anything the Germans could do to them. But why am I discussing concepts of brutality with someone who posts "fun" clips of bears being kept in captivity for people's amusement? lol!
@ryko26 I apologize for getting your nationality wrong. You've got the wrong idea about the bears, though. They're rather pampered--bears in the wild of here don't have a particularly good life--avg lifespan of 4 to 6 yrs---these bears live upwards of 20yrs and are pets, no different than a dog.
In any case, brutality is not just a Russian trait, though I'll admit they are good at it. Sadly, brutality is a human trait
there is so much lies and misunderstandings about stalin after his death. sometimesit it looks like one has to put ones whole life on struggle against those who spread such info. anyway i hope they can have learnt their lesson from that war.
yes, if usa did not enter first war then there would have been no hitler. germany would have won and history would have changed. no need for the second war.
you see AH gave germans a dream and justified totalitarianism by allowing germans to rule over future slaves, but Stalin aim was to make his own people slaves, white slaves. you late for work 20 minutes you get 20 years in prison.
Well deportation of minor people of Russia is a Russian guilt to bear. I wish that people would learn to accept and bear their own guilt instead of pointing on others' mistakes.
Why does everyone cheer that Stalin defeated Hitler? Big deal! They were no different AT ALL!! We should have postponed D-Day until Hitler had dismantled the Soviets completely. Then we could have swept in from the west and delt with Germany.
True many more Russians would have died at the hands of the Germans. But what's the difference? They died at the hands of Soviet troops anyway. Whenever the Soviets would "liberate" an area in Russia from German control, they'd kill half the civilians for "not sufficiently resisting the enemy". They did the same thing to their own Soviet POW's at the war's end. Furthermore, Stalin ended up killing more Jews than Hitler. So again, what's the difference?
First of all the picture is not as grim as you paint it. Second of all the difference is that it ended in 1953 when Stalin died, whereas if Germans won it would probably get really bad for a long time.
No someone who was there would make such a statement. They do say there's no fool like an old fool. Stick to making statements about your shitty country.
I know many people who were "there" and they do not agree with your assessment. Yeah, things got so great after Stalin that the USSR had to force Hungary,Czechoslovakia, and Poland to stay in their camp by force of arms. Not to mention the fact that when given the chance all of eastern Europe rejected communism as well as the Soviets THEMSELVES!!! You must have been one of the butt kissing party members that got all the benefits for snitching on his neighbors.
You live in a fantasy world where the communists were loved by everyone and the USSR never collapsed. Keep living in denial if that's what you need to soothe your pain. Rejection en mass must be a hard pill to swallow. I suppose all those folks in Eastern Europe who shook off your chains are "rednecks" as well,huh?
I prefer that fantasy to yours, where the US beat up nazis and never lost Vietnam or any war since and where you think everyone in the world doesn't want to kill you on sight.
At last you say one thing that is true. SOME do want to kill us on sight, you being one of them. Communist thugs always show their true colors. Bring it on, Cold War LOSER.
You and I actually agree on something, though I don't give the credit to Arabs. Liberalism and and oversize big government will break this nation apart. Already 32 States have issued "sovereignty declarations". I welcome this divorce. The New England and Northeastern States, Southern California, Northern Oregon, and Washington State can form the "USSA" since they already love socialism. What's left will be the new United States and will be stronger than ever.
All I'm saying is that with no USSR, most of the wars following WW2 would have been prevented. There would have been no Cold War. MILLIONS of lives would have been saved.
Stalin alone killed millions of his own people. Apart from that, communists regimes around the world are responsible for up to 60 million deaths. Had the USSR died during WW2, chances are that would have been the end of the "world wide communist revolution". Yes, MILLIONS of lives would have been saved.
Let me tell you REALLY bloodthirsty I am. I believe the U.S.A. should have stayed out of World War 1. Why should we care about Europe anyway? If we had not been involved, Germany and Britain would have fought to a stalemate. Why should we have cared? As a result, there probably would not have been a Nazi Germany, the rise of communism, or World War 2.
austria was atacking serbia, so who cares? why england and france declared the war to germany in 1939? hitler was taking poland, so what? why u suport izrael against terrorists? what r u doing in irak or afganistan? why september 11 happend in usa and not in canada, australia? who is the lead country in nato?
u choose this way of active foreign policy, its your choice and destiny:)
I don't care why Austria attacked Serbia or anything else about that war. It wasn't our problem. Germany sank the Lusitania because we were using it to smuggle arms to the Allies. They were wrong to sink it, they should have captured it instead. But even then we should have retaliated against Germany without actually entering the war. NATO is obsolete. We need to choose a new foreign policy of non-intervention. But the Islamo-fascists will still attack us either way.
As for Israel, we usually hinder them more than we help them. If we'd stay out of their affairs, they'd clean up the middle east. Time to cut the leash.
Nice thoughts, but that is really going quite far. Why not fix the whole planet by...starting over or...maybe start from here and tell the truth about history.
@Schuultz Aside from Hitler's affair with his niece, who his friend Maurice murdered for him when she threateend to go public with their affair (she wanted H to marry her), he worked as a male prostitute before the first world war, to supplement his postcards. He did indeed have only one testicle. Hitler had Eva Braun spank him regularly. His time at the headquarters unit in WWI was spent giving blow jobs, not as a dispatch runner.
The Kalmyks practice Buddhism - definitely not Russian! Same architecture found in Xizang (Tibet), China. Perhaps they are remnants of the Khan's Mongolian Empire, which ruled China during the Yuen Dynasty.
It's amazing how soldiers can carry out inhuman orders and not think twice. Such blind obedience is just as evil as the person in who the inhuman orders came from. And it's shocking to see the utter lack of remorse decades later for the actions they committed. How terrible and inhumane some combatants were.
@maxscriptguru It takes nothing to be inhuman. It actually requires something to have compassion and humanity.
Its easy to judge these people now, in the convenience of your home where death isnt over your shoulder. But I bet if you experienced that stuff, youd feel differently....or maybe youd feel nothing at all.
You are absolutely right. It does indeed take nothing to be inhuman. It does take effort to be compassionate and brave.
I can't answer the what-if questions as to what I would do if I were there. But I have been taught mercy, self - sacrifice, and charity from when I was early age. I hope to make a difference in the world I live in today: It's impossible to make a difference in the world of 60 years ago, except to transmit the lessons they learned to our youth of today.
yep, either that, or a shell hit him, looks like the explosion came from underground so maybe a booby trap or mine. harrowing footage of course though
WIPE OUT all these Kalmyk Mongols! These were animals and thieves and barbarians who wandered like Gypsy nomad Mongol killers from Siberia to these lands in Caucasus, STALIN WAS 100% right! He should even send them to China.

@GreenShadedThing You're completely missing the contributions of the Mughals to the development of the civil society, state administration, economy and social stability of the subcontinent.
Do you really think that the Mughal Empire was a reign of terror over India for hundreds of years? Do you really think Islam would spread so far if it was about oppression? Study Islam at its peak - the Khilafah Rashidun.

"The people of Homs replied [to the Muslims], "We like your rule and justice far better than the state of oppression and tyranny in which we were. The army of Heraclius we shall indeed, with your 'amil's' help, repulse from the city." The Jews rose and said, "We swear by the Torah, no governor of Heraclius shall enter the city of Homs unless we are first vanquished and exhausted!" [...]

@GreenShadedThing The inhabitants of the other cities—Christian and Jews—that had capitulated to the Muslims, did the same [...] When by Allah's help the "unbelievers" were defeated and the Muslims won, they opened the gates of their cities, went out with the singers and music players who began to play,
This is first hand account of the rule of Islam. similar events happened when the Muslims conquered Spain and ruled it for 800 years. Islam is not unjust. PEOPLE are when they dont follow it.

'look up the real history of the British Empire, not the Leftist, revisionalist, rewriting of history, ' I spent years researching at the public records office in Kew with original documents examining the use of British forces in counter insurgency post 1945. The 'massacres which take place today' I am at a loss for this but instability both political and military in these countries can be attributed in part to British foreign policy in terms of governments we supported and groups we suppressed

@alanheath3 Germany was subject to what would be classed as a open blockade as described/predicted by British Naval strategist Julian Corbett .

Germany, Austro Hungary, and Russia from 1917 with a civil war were all deficient in food resources let alone other war materials.

True many more Russians would have died at the hands of the Germans. But what's the difference? They died at the hands of Soviet troops anyway. Whenever the Soviets would "liberate" an area in Russia from German control, they'd kill half the civilians for "not sufficiently resisting the enemy". They did the same thing to their own Soviet POW's at the war's end. Furthermore, Stalin ended up killing more Jews than Hitler. So again, what's the difference?

I don't care why Austria attacked Serbia or anything else about that war. It wasn't our problem. Germany sank the Lusitania because we were using it to smuggle arms to the Allies. They were wrong to sink it, they should have captured it instead. But even then we should have retaliated against Germany without actually entering the war. NATO is obsolete. We need to choose a new foreign policy of non-intervention. But the Islamo-fascists will still attack us either way.

He did indeed have only one testicle. Hitler had Eva Braun spank him regularly. His time at the headquarters unit in WWI was spent giving blow jobs, not as a dispatch runner.

Stalin was a mass-murderer.

The Kalmyks practice Buddhism - definitely not Russian! Same architecture found in Xizang (Tibet), China. Perhaps they are remnants of the Khan's Mongolian Empire, which ruled China during the Yuen Dynasty.

It's amazing how soldiers can carry out inhuman orders and not think twice. Such blind obedience is just as evil as the person in who the inhuman orders came from. And it's shocking to see the utter lack of remorse decades later for the actions they committed. How terrible and inhumane some combatants were.

@maxscriptguru It takes nothing to be inhuman. It actually requires something to have compassion and humanity.
Its easy to judge these people now, in the convenience of your home where death isnt over your shoulder. But I bet if you experienced that stuff, youd feel differently....or maybe youd feel nothing at all.

You are absolutely right. It does indeed take nothing to be inhuman. It does take effort to be compassionate and brave.
I can't answer the what-if questions as to what I would do if I were there. But I have been taught mercy, self - sacrifice, and charity from when I was early age. I hope to make a difference in the world I live in today: It's impossible to make a difference in the world of 60 years ago, except to transmit the lessons they learned to our youth of today.
