The Anglo-American alliance with the Soviets bore bitter fruit. When Catholic Central Europe was handed to the communists, assaults on Catholics was ferocious. Here is one Jesuit's summary of the tortures suffered in an Albanian prison camp:

"Most of them were beaten on their bare feet with wooden clubs; the fleshy part of the legs and buttocks were cut open, rock salt inserted beneath the skin, and then sewn up again; their feet, placed in boiling water until the flesh fell off, were then rubbed with salt; their Achilles’ tendons were pierced with hot wires. Some were hung by their arms for three days without food; put in ice and icy water until nearly frozen; had electrical wires placed in their ears, nose, mouth, genitals, and anus; burning pine needles placed under fingernails; forced to eat a kilo of salt and having water withheld for 24 hours; boiled eggs put in their armpits; teeth pulled without anaesthetic; tied behind vans and dragged; left in solitary confinement without food or water until almost dead; forced to drink their own urine and eat their own excrement; put in pits of excrement up to their necks; put on a bed of nails and covered with heavy material; put in nail-studded cages which were then rotated rapidly..."

It was known, before the war, that Stalin was a butcher, and one not to be trusted in any negotiation. I cannot fathom why FDR, or any of his advisors, could not have known that.
