"Yeah, there was this thing the SS did with Jews. You may have heard about it."
Hold on there partner. My people lost 19 million during WWII.
My mother and father escaped the Russian invasion of Western Ukraine/Poland by a few months -my remaining aunts and uncles wound up in Nazi concentration camps. This is years AFTER the communists killed 10 million Ukrainians during the unknown Ukrainian Holocaust - the one that made quite an impression on the young Hitler.
Now how do you justify impeding efforts to stop Communist genocide?
I am not defending Stalin. Give me a break.
Just stating that using the SS was unacceptable.
Other methods -- like nukes --- would have been great.
