It was no need in D-Day

[Baron]

Russia had already smashed Hitler after four long years of war, Germany was already defeated and practically clinically dead. The 'brave' allies waited for the Third Reich got weak and than entered the war. Where were US, UK and other troops before?

Good Night.... I suggest you do a little reading.
One little diddy that most people do not know, because our pitiful apologist education system that is currently down playing Americas role and glorifying Russia...as if they won WW II single handily... Stalin and Hitler worked together prior to WW II to help Germany build it's army. They provided training and intelligence in mechanizing Germanys woeful military. Without Russias direct assistance WW II would have never happened. Not a chance.
Russia also invaded Finland immediately following Hitler invading Poland.
Russia is at least as much fault for starting WW II as Germany.
So, there was no way America/UK/France was going to allow Russia to move in on Germany. There would have been no East/West Germany...Germany would have become a province of the Soviet Union and TODAY - The Soviet Union would be the world power and not America.

great post , Koba and Lenin started ww2 ALREADY in 1918 with occupation of BNR, UPR, etc.



"
Who Started World War II? by Viktor Suvorov"

In the summer of 1978, a member of the GRU residency, Vladimir Rezun, sought asylum in the West. After some time, the defector announced in England, and several years later, one after another, sensational books about the Soviet past began to appear in the West, signed “Victor Suvorov”. Under this odious pseudonym, the traitor to the Motherland Rezun tried to make history.
All 'Books' of Resun ( a traitor and enemy of Russia ) have been written by CIA's money and Deep State protection

The fog of war and knowledge of recent history is something we can't always appreciate 75 years later.

Remember:

-less than two decades previously the Russians fell out of the War to End All Wars after a revolution

-the Germans just MIGHT HAVE developed an A-Bomb before '46, '47 or whenever Stalin made it to Paris. In hindsight we have an idea of how inferior German technology was but at the time we weren't sure, and that would be a heck of a thing to gamble with

-The UK was out to avenge themselves! Manning up and doing your part was a thing. We can both debate if the UK war effort was the end of their empire but can't accuse them of not giving it their all/last.

-I still see casualty figures all over the place. Even as late as the ill conceived Citadel offensive in summer of '43 the Germans were still killing Russians en masse. We talking someplace between 1 to 2 and 1 to 6 kill ratios. Battle of Kursk - Wikipedia Unfortunately its amazing how effective the German land forces were even in failed assaults.

-Stalin was a monster. His allies knew it. If the Germans weren't such narcissistic genocidal political idiots the Brits, Charles Lindbergh, us normal peeps and the French just may have helped them fight Russia. Think people like Political Chick gives FDR a hard time now, if he hadn't prevented the iron curtain from being put up on the French coast I might have a difficult time with it.

The facts speak another language.

Sir, you may have to explain more. Are you saying WWII Germany wasn't a bad place?

I highly doubt this version of things. Germany has massive stores of troops and weapons throughout Europe. If the allies had not invaded, they could have easily rallied against the Red Army. And if you look at the Red Army, they were living off of the lands they walked over.

The moment they stalled in their advance, they would have run out of supplies, and been routed by the Germans.

It was because we showed up, that the Germans could not concentrate their forces to stop the Red Army.

Why did we take so long? Because of the Atlantic wall. That stuff was no joke. It was the real deal, and we were lucky to have taken those beaches at all.

Now I get it, for sure the Soviets lost a ton of blood, taking on the Nazis. But you need to remember something about this, before you start spouting off the heroism of the Soviets. They made a pact with a snake, and the snake bit them.

If the Soviets had not formed an alliance with the Nazis, they never would have been invaded by Germany to begin with.

I personally think the entire deal was setup by G-d himself, to allow two utterly evil nations, wipe each other out.
