Yep....

The leftwing NAZI Socialists were allies with the leftwing Russian Communists...until the German Socialist dicktator got greedy and wanted Russia, too.

No, technically they were still allies until a week later. Stalin stayed in bed for a week.

Indeed.

A great movie is “Stalin” with Robert Duval.

There’s a great scene when the Nazis are invading, and Voroshilov, tells Stalin directly that it was Stalin’s fault.

Now that took balls.......and Voroshilov lived to tell the tale.

Oldman is one of the greatest actors of our generation.

Yes, he’s that good.

“...Winston Churchill, who rallied his country with soaring oratory when Britain’s very survival was at stake.”

Britain’s very survival is at greater peril right now with all the muzzies and there is no Churchill anywhere in sight.
Poor, poor Britain.

With the possible exception of Nigel Farage.

When the UK becomes officially a Muslim country, all vestiges of it’s Anglican history will be ersased. Pity, that.

Russia, well all the untermenschen Slavs, were always the ultimate target for conquest and enslavement. The Jews were targeted for extermination. It was all laid out in Mein Kampf but few people could make it through such a turgid book. And if they did most could hardly believe he was serious.

Oh, and Nick, we were definitely on the menu for the mid-1940's, once all of Europe to the Urals was secure and the survivors hard at work for the Reich. The Japanese (and the Russian winter) disrupted the plan.

London Can Take It

Those words and more spoken by Churchill in his "You Do Your Worst; We'll Do Our Best; and London can take it (like a prehistoric monster into whose armoured hide showers of arrows can be shot in vein) speech
