Agreed, among other things during WW2 (I've always loved history), but the Russians only turned on Germany because Germany turned on them, they were originally allies and then decades later the Russians ended up turning on us anyway and ended up being 1 of 2 of the biggest superpowers.

We turned on Germany from day one since the start of WW2. If not for our empire - global colony expansionism including our US cousins, then the world would now be living in a much horrible way of life that would make our current definition of racism pale in comparison to what a world would have been under Nazism - something that some people these days typically leftists seem to take for granted when they sucker up to things like political correctness - loss of our freedom of speech that ultimately is the main reason our country fought for in WW2 next to a piece of paper legally binding us to protect Poland from invasion.

Its a lot, lot more complicated than that, but in a nutshell that's how it is.

 

Not quite correct, Chamberlain and the rest of the 'nasty party' government sold out the Czech Government when Hitler first took over Sudetenland and then the rest of Czechoslovakia. The Uk and French governments could at that point have put an end to Hitler and the Nazi party, as they weren't ready for war in 1938. Chamberlain flew back to the uk and at the airport waived a bit of paper and talked of "peace in our time".
