    Don't take anything posted to Z seriously - only way to respond to pointless absurdity sometimes is vice versa :)

    Don't think so - not unless you had done it first .. and if so - you deserved it - as I almost never invoke da mods ... usually it is them contacting me .. albeit of late I have managed to behave.

    I do have Vlads direct line.. yup that would be me .. but I can't reveal Vlad's secrets - that would take away the element of Surprise , perhaps altering the course of destiny - in this geopolitical chess game.

    Why would Stalin start a war, it didn't need anything? You're probably thinking of Poland, when they marched into Czechoslovakia together with Germany to grab a chunk.

    Did you ever hear of 'Barbarossa'. It's when the German tanks were lined along the border to grab the rich black earth and push the Russians to the Urals. Either that or to kill them. Same thing!

    Well.....didn't do anything, in this case you replied to me, so you got it back....if you can dish it out, you gotta be able wear it.

    Yeah...sure the mods contact you, ....yup you have Vladolfs direct line, just like I'm on a first name basis with General Milley and CIA director Burns

    Well...yeah didn't do it first here , so if you can dish it out you gotta be able to wear it, and you don't.

    Yeah, sure the mods contact you.

    Yep, you have Vladolfs line like I have General Milleys or CIA directors Burns direct access line.

    But I do have lunch with former "spook" Bob Baer from time to time , i know him well....he's shared several secrets with me ....a few that had implications worldwide. Maybe I'll tell you one or two sometime...:)).

    The Nazi Party and fascism were formed to oppose communism which was very strong in Europe at the time. So to say Stalin sided with Hitler would be an oxymoron. Stalin was biding his time so he could build up his forces to fight Hitler when the time came.

    It's the same today. Putin has been biding his time to build up Russia's forces so he could fight off the next onslaught from the West. Today Russia is ready to fight any adversary. This is why Putin said that whoever tries to take a bite out of Russia, will get his teeth smashed in.

    I'm dancing now so full of glee,
    to tell you that our dear country
    is not for sale, nor will it fail
    and if you think it's just a tale;

    then let me say that we are proud
    and burned too much in history -
    from others that were just like thee.


    But being burned is a lesson learned
    and trust is something one must earn
    and you haven't - so give it up!

    You are the sensitive one who can't take it - normally relying on ad hom fallacy - demonization of the messenger because your claims are so ridiculously biased - and arguments so bad. Now trying to project your failings on to others..

    Interesting spook story - but unlikely the source of your wild stories :)

    Arguments so bad ....wow, you must not like dissenting opinion, since I've had PMs saying I have great arguments.....what failings exactly?....

    "Spook story"....I rarely post wild stories gifty....im not @Jeannette....

    No, Stalin and Hitler started WWII. We can argue at what point did the European theater
    begin (there being no Pearl Harbor moment) but truth be told these two great powers
    plotted to divide Europe up.And in September 1939 they began doing so.

    Really? And who's going to start this war? Britain? France?
    and why?
    These two nations don't have a failing economy, a military industrial complex, an inferiority complex,
    a desire to restore their ancient empires and a need to distract French or English voters from the
    abject failures of their government.

    I think you're paying too much attention to the Russophrenics. The only reason for WWII was that Germany needed land for its large population. That's what 'Barbarossa' was all about. To get the land they had to ethnically cleanse the Russians and push them to the Urals. This is why there was a high civilian death toll. It was genocide.

    If Hitler and Stalin were planning on dividing Europe between them, there wouldn't have been a need for WWII. A little logic here. Do you really think that the French and British army could fight off a combined Russian and German force?

    Wrong question. Russia got the Baltics and Poland. I presume they already thought the Ukraine
    was their's, and had the bodies to prove it. Later this extended to the so-called Warsaw Pact
    countries of Easter Europe.
    Hitler's own ideas seemed confused about most things saved for Jews and the Slavs. He felt
    Germany should the master of Europe, but somehow that seemed secondary to the Jewish
    Bolsheviks and all their land west of the Urals.

    So why exactly did the Soviets get THEIR teeth smashed in when the Nazis invaded? And had to rely on Britain and the US to prop them up?

    Who said the British and Americans had to prop up the Russians? You better learn some history. It was France and Poland that needed the propping up. That's why Britain entered the war. Then when Britain failed, they had to be propped up by the Americans.

    As for whose teeth got smashed, I would say it was the Germans. They had the largest invasion force in history lined up along a thousand mile border, but instead of facing 5 thousand tanks, they faced 35 thousand tanks - and they were better too.

    This is why the first thing in Gen. Montgomery's war manual was; "Never invade Russia".

    The name 'Ukraine' means the outskirts. It was the outskirts of the Russian world - in other words, part of Russia. This is why they never had a king.

    When the Mongols invaded, the Polish/Lithuanian Empire grabbed Ukraine. Later when the Catholic bishops tried to put the Russians in Ukraine under the Pope, half of Ukraine rebelled and asked the Tsar is they could become part of Russia again. It's not that they were never a part of Russia, but only that they had returned to Russia.

    This is why a large area in Ukraine is called 'New Russia'.

    WW2 was bet between Hitler and Stalin to see who could kill the most Russians.
    Stalin won.

    Right of Return
    The right of return is a principle in international law which guarantees everyone's right of voluntary return to, or re-entry to, their country of origin or of citizenship.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_of_return

    So... when do all those ethnic Germans get to return to Poland, The Czech republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, the Netherlands, Romania, and the the former Soviet republics?
    When does Germany get Prussia back?
