If it offended you I'm sorry, that was not my intention. My intention is simply to speak the truth of what school never taught us. They did an excellent Job of showing the unprecendented savagery of Nazi Germany (Which school and Historians need to expose) but not the Soviet Union. I'm trying simply to speak the truth that Historians don't teach despite it being verified and credible as other Historical facts.If we are going to judge the entire life quality of a large nation on specific crimes by the government I think you'll find we can find lots of reasons to assume life in America was quite garbage at that time. There is a lot of hypocrisy in this thread, people not noticing that the governments they live under pull similar ****.
No, I don't think the law allows those atrocities to be done legally, but that isn't to say our Government isn't filled with flaws and injustice. But I can go hold up signs that say American Government is the biggest terrorist and mass murdering Satanic institution on earth without the Government arresting doing anything to me. People protest the Gov here all the time. I listed what would happen to people under the leninist or Stalinist Soviet Union. It is true. I have heard the testimony of Russians of all Faiths and Russians of no faith.
They said the Government was always unstable and insecure while trying to hide it to intimidate the rest of the world and it's own people. The Gov was always scared. A scared animal is the most viscious. The Gov was so weak the Soviet Union collapsed without firing a shot but they brutally executed their opponents because of fear.
Let's just say there is a Devil which you may not believe in. If there is one, the Soviet Union was His utopia. Soviets would send people to concentration camps for having "sacred" literature, texts, the Bible, proselytizing, having the title "priest" or nun etc. They would cut off priests hands so they couldn't say mass (I would rather go to Auschwitz and die in a gas chamber than live a full life span without hands.) They would pluck out eyes, puncture ear drums, skin people alive, have them eaten alive by dogs, torture them till they are paralyzed for a lifetime, keep them sleep deprived to see how long it takes a person to die of sleep deprivation, see how long it takes them to go insane and die from solitary confinement, tie people's wrists to their ankles and leave them in a cave to watch them slowly be eaten by rats, crucify, burn them, boil them, freeze them, drown them, have them watch their wife and children get raped, force priests to rape nuns, hack off genitals, draw and quarter them....
...force them to attend satanic mass, urinate on the Eucharist and items they thought to be sacred, force them to eat feces with Holy communion, force them to blaspheme and renounce their faith then shoot them in the head before they could repent to try and get them to lose their souls. I place emphasis on that because the soviet Union hated Religion. Nazis hated people that oppossed them. Almost a person of any Religion, including military chaplains were allowed by the Nazi Government insofar as they didn't preach against it.
A small percentage of German prisoners returned to Germany after the war. The Russians chose not to feed them and have them eat the corpses of their comrades. When Russia went into Germany there were thousands of German women commiting suicide for there were mass rapes of German women and children. It wasn't like that in west Germany where the Americans and occupied.
It is true Hitler starved a lot of political prisoners and Jews which is a terrible way to go, but when the allies arrived, the Germans themselves were also starving and maimed and sick. Hitler committed most of His mass executions when He realized that He would lose the war. He said He wanted to take down the world with him. The Soviets on the other hand did such crimes to their own people in times of peace.
When Hitler had mass executions they were ussually in gas chambers, hanging, or firing squad, all of which are fast deaths. He had people work themselves to death, which is an awful way to go, but He was trying ussually to get them to accomplish something like forcing the Belgians to build underground airfields so the brittish couldn't destroy them and working them 16 hours a day with no breaks and not enough food (still torture nontheless). It wasn't the same as the soviet torturing just for the sake of torturing and doing it on such a mass scale.
