The Soviets couldn't have won the war without the help of the west, even great Britain, after the rains of bomb Hitler delivered on London and other strategic cities couldn't wage an all out war against Germany, the great Britain was merely defending it territories. While the German was sweeping thru Europe, especially in France, British soldiers sent there to help stopped Hitler were all nearly killed in Dunkirk, after the fall of France, they had to be ferried out of France hurriedly, Hitler had the man power, the machine and the spirit of motherland in his soldiers, he could have won the war, but poor military calculation, lack of fuel, and constant interference mared his missions in Soviet Union. Stalin did a wonderful job stopping Hitler just some kilometers from Stalingrad, but he has technically overpowers by Hitler, because as at then, Hitler had more technically advanced weapon than any nation, they had the tiger tank, the Panthers etc, these tanks were beats, only the US something close. And lastly, thru lend lease, the US shipped thousands of war crafts, grains etc to Russia, to help them in their campaign against the axis, when Hitler was finally defeated in the battle of the bulge. The war was both won by the Soviet and the west, but the Us played more vital roles in the war 2 Likes |

Mangekyo:this man was a beast and when he was dying even his lieutenants refused helping him. He had an agenda to kill them too and his death brought peace even though damage has been done already. If he was alive even till 70s I doubt countries like USA and Russia wouldn't exist again because of nuke battles |

thundafire:False! His lieutenants did not refuse to help as he was already lying dead on the floor at his dacha at kuntsevo before the politburo members were summoned by his house keeper to have a look at him. His lieutenants Molotov,bulganin,kaganovich,malenkov as well as the betrayers Khrushchev and Beria came with a doctor who officially pronounced him dead in 1953 |

The U.S.A won world war 2 with their allies,the soviet are shit heads whom have never won any major wars that they have fought,weather and the U.S.A played a major role in the survival of the soviets,the nazis alone crushed the soviets up to their capital,the biggest mistake of the nazis was the attack of Pearl Harbor by the Japanese,that was the game changer that brought the U.S.A into active combat. China and Russia think they can win a Third World War,they will be in for a shocker this time around,they have no allies and will never have. A war is coming,and Nigeria will do well to pick an ally now,and Russia and China ain’t the allies that Nigeria needs because they (China and Russia) will lose the war. 1 Like |

The U.S.A was fighting the nazis and the Japanese,while the big-mouthed Soviet’s only had to deal with the nazis,the Soviet’s couldn’t stop the sweeping of their territory by the nazis,they cowardly ran away from major battles in the then Soviet unions and only fought back when the nazis got to present day Russia,all the Russians know how to do is to hype themselves.the Chinese of today are like the Japanese of then,and the mad Russians you see today are like the mad nazis of then,what happened to those nations in the past will happen to China and Russia. 2 Likes |

ruggedtimi: Was it not the Red Army that handed the Nazi their first defeat in Operation Barborossa? Was it not also the Red army that destroyed the strongest German Army and division; Army Group B and the 6th Panzer, in Stalingrad ? Fact is, no nation contributed more to the defeat of Nazi Germany than Russia. US and British contributions are meagre and overrated by hollywood and western propaganda. The number of Russians that died during the siege of Leningrad alone, are more than the number of US and British deaths combined throughout the war. It was russia that single handedly wiped out the core of the German Army (Army Group A, B and C) in Battle of Kurtz, Stalingrad, and liberation of Leningrad, while British and US where dragging there feets about opening a second front, to "easen" the burden on Russia. Even Stalin was pissed-off and couldnt hide his frustration on why the allies for conveniently dragging its feets, at the detriment of russian lives. By the time the so-called allied invasion of Normandy occured, the Russians have successfully wiped out the core of the German Army. Sending a Nazi soldier to the russian front was every Nazi soldiers worst nightmare. Fact is, it was Russia that did the bulk of the fighting with the Nazis, British and US just rode the wave thereafter. Infact, Neither British nor US posed a significant threat to Hitler. Hitler's biggest obstacle was Russia. He knew all he had to do was defeat russia; US and Britain would come to the negotiating table as France did. For he knows, unlike Russia, huge lost of lives would create great political turmoil in those two countries. And he's right. Had US or Britain lost a quarter of lives Russia lost, both countries would have waved the white flag or disintegrated. The fact that Communist russia saved "Democracy" from Nazi Germany is still a bitter pill to swallow. Hence, through propaganda and hollywood, US, British, and the "free world" contributions were grossly exaggerated, at the expense of Communist Russia. 3 Likes |

Detuner:liberation of Leningrad, battle of Stalingrad and battle of kurtz were all fought on the eastern front in Russia. The German army and waffen SS were on the offensive. The German Luftwaffe couldn't defeat the British royal air force in the battle of great Britain, the u.s navy and royal navy fought against the popular German U boats in the battle of the Atlantic. Do you want to talk about the u.s fighting against the imperial army and navy of Japan in the battle of Okinawa and pearl harbor. The u.s army ,u.s navy, royal air force and royal navy fought several lesser known battles against the German army both in north Africa and Asia. If not for the u.s navy the Germans had already blocked food supply to the Russians. 1 Like 1 Share |

joyandfaith:Are you mentally disabled? If you aren't, then please give me sources for these incorrect claims you're making. USSR faught ww2 for 4 consecutive years, no rest. USA joined the war the year that it ended, expanding their well rested troops to assists people that have already started winning and you want to brag about it? Get some shame. Their so called allies in great Britain were getting bombarded by the Nazis in London, yet they couldn't send troops. BTW, it was even the USSR that pushed the Japanese to surrender, not the USA and their nuclear bomb as you lots try to make it look. When USSR declared war against the Japanese after they dealt with Hitler, fear gripped Suzuki and he had to surrender immediately because red army troops were already advancing to Tokyo. Something the almighty USA couldn't do |

No. I said Stalin told General zhukov that allied troops were going to Berlin and for zhukov to make sure that they're the ones that gets there first. Allied troops were in Germany but nowhere near Berlin. Zhukov had troops round Berlin to shut them out. They took Berlin by themselves, not with the help of anyone, as yall claim 1 Like |

Stalin and Russias obsolete ammunitions where no match to Hitler's arsenals believe me, so many things contributed to the nazi loosing, you must also admit that Soviet union recorded the highest number of casualties during the war. * the winter, war fatigue and the fact that nazis where fighting at different fronts where the ultimate cause of nazis losing the war. The germans where really smart,intelligent and vicious soldiers with their top notch arsenals. Talk about the u boat, their fighter jets and tanks where on another level. |

MangekyoAlt: Dont read from one source, russia didn't push the Japanese anywhere. The same russia that sign a peace pact with japan in 1941 couldn't have pushed japan to surrender, was more of a proxy war. Japan was overwhelmed by the usa nuclear bomb and the destruction of one of their biggest war ship by the americans and if not that the Japanese over estimated their power by attacking the pearl harbour, they would have routed russia out of south east asia or anywhere close to asia.japan was another power to behold but like the nazis where intoxicated with power n where over ambitious also. |
