WTF! Check real facts, not biased history.
Soviets and nazis WERE NOT ALLIES before "barbarossa"! Even "Molotov-Ribbentrop" pact was not "allied agreement", it's was TREATY OF NON-AGGRESSION pact. True, Poland and Baltic countries was divided by the pact, but it was not union of Germany and Soviet. Stalin never meet Hitler personally. German nazi ideology hated communism. Soviet communist troops even fought against german nazi in 1936, in Spain.

@ukrainesuperpower87

I'm awhare it was a Non-Aggression pact, meaning Germany and Russia agreed to not attack each other, and Russia never formally signed the Axis pact.
The Winter War was a war launched by the Soviets to regain old Imperial Territory that had been lost following the fall of the Russian Empire in 1917.
The question I asked was how did committing the same atrocities against Germans who had little or nothing to do with what the SS did make the Red Army any different?

Babi Yar, Treblinka, Auschwitz...Stalingrad, Leningrad.....after what the Red Army and the Soviet people endured and saw from 1941 to 1945 I am surprised they left any Germans alive at all.

The Eastern Front is why I say the saying Never Again has a double meaning to me, it doesn't just mean the Holocaust, it means a war as vast, as merciless, and as destructive as World War II must never be allowed to happen again. You can't tell the story of the Holocaust without telling the story of World War II as a whole. If the full history of World War II is ignored, the tragedies of the Holocaust and the war as a whole will repeat themselves, if that happens no place on Earth will be safe

For those, who blame russian capitan - check the wikipedia for story of russian hospital ship Armenia, sent to floor of Black Sea in 1941 by germans. It had 5000 to 7000 on board, mostly civilians.

Or just another example of german submariners criminal. In Barents Sea, two german submariners attacked civilian soviet ship with polar explorers and their families. They have sunk the ship. Survived people tried to escape on two soviet trawlers. German submariners wait when all survived people was rescued to trawlers. Then they attacked and have sunk trawlers, they killed every man.

Generally, Second World War was the biggest fall of the humanity.
It's very horrible, how people died, a lot of people full of live, similar to us.

On the other hand, I think Titanic is the most famous ship tragedy, because there died a lot of rich people and British.
