I think the highlighted part explains the difference. It was a non-aggression agreement, not an alliance. non-aggression agreement is less than an alliance. Joe, this whole argument is so specious in borders on the ridiculous. Originally, Albert freaked out because I said the Stalin was not Mr. Wonderful; in fact he was not much better than Hitler having made nearly 7 million people, including many Jews "disappear". I also added that at one point that Germany and Russia were allied during WW II. It is the least important aspect of the point that I was trying to make. If you all want to say that the pact between Germany and Russia was less than an alliance, so be it. Nonetheless, Stalin was a cold blooded killer....if not a match to Hitler, then certainly from the same family. That does not mean that all Russians are a-holes nor that all Germans are bad........which was also part of my original point. Damn, if this can happen to what was intended as a minor point in a conversation, I can understand why Israel and Palestine can't make any headway. ;~)) ted
