Really? Ask the men who landed at Normandy or the men who repelled the German attack through the Ardennes (The "Battle of the Bulge").
Typical Soviet/Russian disinformation.
Maybe if Stalin listened to his agents before Barbarossa, the Russians wouldn’t have lost so many. Or maybe had Stalin not made the deal with Hitler in the first place.
All articles are propaganda articles.
The US media have no business criticizing Tucker for failure to challenge Putin when they sit there like lap dogs when interviewing any Democrat.
NewsWeak bump for later...
It’s not that. Go read the Wiki about the Battle of Stalingrad. I didn’t make up the numbers and numbers are all that matter. Oh, typo above, Feb ‘43, not Feb ‘42.
It’s quite the read. The Soviets had intelligence at the German High Command, hand carried to Switzerland and radio’ed to Moscow from there. The Germans at Stalingrad had to constantly maneuver to keep the Hungarian and Romanian forces from coming into contact with each other, or they would start fighting. The Soviets were told of this via Switzerland.
400K Germans, 220K Italians, 200K Hungarians, 143K Romanians. All wiped out at Stalingrad. The Germans lost another 175K at Moscow.
They garrisoned Greece, Yugoslavia, parts of North Africa. The units garrisoning the conquered countries to the west were largely SS, meaning somewhat civilian police and not trained Wermacht.
We know what US history books say about all this, but the truth is in the numbers. Even the UK histories largely presume the war was over much sooner than our histories.
Never ever forget, it was the Soviets that took Berlin. Not US/UK forces.
History is a set of lies agreed upon — Napoleon
Judging by the Keyword spamming, I’d say this hit a nerve with the Putinistas.
“Russian Media Scrambles to Bury Putin’s Tucker Carlson Interview Gaffes”
“American Media Scrambles to Bury Biden’s Interview Gaffe’s”
Seems like almost the same propaganda control?
Another great laugh from Zeepers.
Eggs are so precious in Ruzzia, man talks to his eggs.
Stalin had already gotten rid of most of what competent military officers in the Red Army. Bring ready probably wouldn’t have made much difference.
The French were ready to be attacked. But having utterly incompetent Generals doomed their defense.
Yep. Just like Qanon. A separate thread for all the Uke Intel Ops to fellate each other.
France in the 1930s was a cluster you-know-what. Instable governments, lots of Communists, kind of like what this country is becoming.
In other words the Russian media did exactly what the West’s CIA/MI6 controlled press and the Zeepers do on the FR every day.
“The only thing people need to understand about WW II in Europe was the war was over February 1942 when the German 6th Army’s 400,000 plus hundreds of thousands of Hungarian, Romanian and Italian troops surrendered at Stalingrad.”
Uh, that would be February, 1943.
“All articles are propaganda articles.”
Yes; to one degree or another, that’s fairly common; and has been for a hell of a long time.
