  1. I agree with you fully on the Russians contribution to WW2. I am forever thankful to the Soviet soldiers who fought in WW2 against that bastard Hitler. But fuck Japan. Sure we could of took the island but it was time for no more American blood to be spilled. The a bombs resulted in quick Japanese surrender. A success - its a pity we did not have them a few years early to drop on Hitler.

  3. lol so wrong, japan was already surrendering

    A-bomb was a show-off to the soviets. americans were already preparing for the future, caps against coms.

    i bet u dont even realize ww2 was caused by usa.

  4. Proof of these claims? Of course the A bomb was a show off but was Japan really surrendering?

  5. Lost the thread - what links are being asked for?

    Germany suffered somewhere around 4.5 million dead soldiers in the war. Roughly 4.2 million of those - more than 90% - were suffered on the Easter Front, at the hands of the Soviets. These are, like all historical numbers, approximate. There are many many readily findable sources.

    Without the Soviet meat grinder, D-Day never happens. Without D-Day, Germany still loses. WW2 was won by the Soviets, especially from the perspective of anyone east of France, since the US never even got there.

    That doesn't mean many fine Canadian and US men and women didn't perform individual acts of great bravery. It just means a lot more Soviets did the same thing, for a much longer time.

    For that matter, a great many German soldiers also performed great acts of bravery.

  6. The difference is that the Soviets were shot for desertion, whereas Americans (generally) were not.

  7. So? How does that minimize the Soviet effort against Germany.

    there were already losing since the battle of midway in 1942. By spring 1945, they loss saipan, guam, Philippine, east asia, etc etc etc.


    If it wasnt for the A-bomb, the u.s victory of the battle of Okinawa, will enable u.s to invade Kyushu, and then onto Honshu. And at the sametime, the russian would have invaded Hokkaido.


    The A-Bomb accelerated japan to surrender. Otherwise, japan would have surrender in early 1946.

    The D-Day will happen anyway regardless, but will be on the different date and perhaps on a different location.

    if the D-day happened during during late winter or early spring of 1945, the alliance may have taken the entire germany and partial poland.

    Instead of east berlin, it would have been east warsaw.

  10. It doesn't. But it's easier to be brave and fight when you know the alternative is death.
