"Americans and others often take the credit for defeating Hitler but any serious student of history knows that it was Russia that stood alone against the evil of the Third Reich while the Western powers were content to let the Russians bleed the Nazis white."

They also bled the Ukranians white--5 million of them dying in one big atrocity called the 1930's. Many forget that England and other European countries almost entered the earlier conflict on the side of the Finns in the late 1930's against Russia, but hesitated because the Finns were actually mauling the Russian Bear at first.

"By the way, as Westerners we are deeply
indebted to Russia and its tremendous sacrifice in defeating fascism."

Why don't you finish your sentence?--Defeating fascism so they could be free to murder another 25 or so million people, many their own. Russians never changed their ways IMO. According to the National Geographic Magazine, the Russians dropped toys boobytrapped with explosives to maim and leave fingerless and limbless thousands of Afghan children in the 1980's. They also used "yellow rain" on innocent villagers there, a weapon of mass destruction. We must have missed that one.

I'm tired of hearing your kind of BS. If the US would have stayed neutral in the European theater Russia would have lost.

As for Russians starving, when the iron curtain fell a few years ago and the call came out to help the starving Russains through the winter, CBS news showed a film of civilians desperate to save the potato crop in danger of rotting in the mud. Citizens were offered half of what they could pick. Who was out there picking in the miserable rain to avoid starving? A bunch of middle aged and elderly men and women. What a joke. That country is beyond help. I'd rather place my money in this Hemisphere.
