RE:"it was a cooperative effort to defeat Hitler, dividing the credits is just as dumb as claiming that US alone liberated Europe. One thing is clear though is that by the end of the war both Russia and US tried to get as much territory under their control as they could.
For example, Stalin wasted on the order of one million soldiers in killed and wounded in order to beat US to Berlin."

No argument there. Russia had to fight through retreating German forces to get to Berlin. Actually, had Eisenhower not waited, the West could have taken most of East Germany but that was their deal. Too bad the cold war ensued.

You saying that Hitler killed more Russians than Stalin did? That is really amazing. It must have been a tight contest though.
