    Exactly. They conveniently ignore the "fight to the last person" order the Emperor gave, which would have cost Allied lives in the hundred's of thousands as well as killing more civilians than the two atomic bombs we dropped.

    But reality is typically lost on the revisionist historians who think the atomic bombs weren't necessary.

    If the US wasn't pushing from the West, I highly doubt Hilter would have lost the Eastern front. He could have put all his forces on the eastern front and easily defended the Reich.

    It's cute how Europeans think they would have beat the Nazis without the US. Sucks that you got your shit pushed in bros, just accept it and thank us for bailing you out then, and babysitting you all these years after. Funny, as soon as we step back from Europe after communism fell, you let yourselves be invaded by Muslims.

    Didn't seem like the kind of guy who would've been satisfied in defending some area instead of trying to conquer the entire planet.

    No, absent the copious military aid supplied to the soviets, Hitler would have either captured or destroyed almost the entirety of soviet industrial capacity.
    If the US had said, not getting involved, (in any way) Hitler would have won on the eastern and the western fronts.

    Dude, US combat troops essentially did fuck all in the European Theater - 90% of all German divisions were brought down by the Soviets.
    the critical US involvement was its industrial output, the GI's barely mattered.

    Exactly, and I guess some of us are concerned with the mentality where you can get really upset over a few thousand casualties in an attack (Pearl Harbor or 9/11), then blindly worship uniform while forgetting completely the hundreds of thousands of casualties that result from the response that isn't at all measured.

    Especially today, when Kim may just do something stupid, and then the retarded monkey that is the PotUS currently does yet another response that isn't at all measured, and nukes entire North Korea and kills millions of civilians. We might want to look back and remember the past, being that it's a day of remembrance and all, and try not to do just that.

    Hell, even with us pushing from the west Germany could have taken Russia out of the war if not for Hitler's obsession with taking Stalingrad instead of the Russian oil fields. In a lot of ways the Allies didn't win the war so much as Hitler's ego lost it.

    Did anyone say "we forgot how many died"? You came in here and said "why should you pay respects to your people who died, when all these other people died". What the fuck kind of response is that? We also lost another quarter of a million military personnel after Japan sucked us into the war. Civilians are unfortunately collateral damage, because their government wanted to attack us, but that's our fault? Not theirs? If you dont want youre people to die, dont start the fucking war in the first place.

    Soviets had to deal with several invasion tentatives since day 1 after the revolution from almost every neighboring European power and the USA (yes). Everywhere Communist movements started they were invaded of destabilized by Americans

    Did you not get the memo? You are attempting to superimpose a modern idea of measured response on the historical context -- Japan declared war. By those rules, it was "last man standing" and not imposing crushing terms of surrender in the WWI style was forward looking.

    You are also attempting to say "well, Finland ...". Finland didn't act with greater strength and aggressiveness because in the scale of WWII, although they mounted a politically skillful and brave defense of their territory, they just didn't have the military force to go much further than they did. You are like a Yorkie threatening to rip someone's throat out.
    With COVID-19 making its impact on our lives, I have decided that I shall hang in there for my remaining days, skip some meals, try to get children to experiment with making henna patterns on their skin, and plant some trees. You know -- live, fast, dye young, and leave a pretty copse. I feel like I may not have that quite right.
