Nice of the Russians to conveniently forget that little non-aggression pact that guaranteed to the Germans the Russians would not come knocking and allowed him to begin WWII in the first place. Oh and lets not forget the Germans were going to go into Poland regardless, and the Soviets sure wanted their own part of the pie.

The Russians were just another bad-guy in WWII, they just happened to be less bad than the Nazi's and our ally. As much as I respect the Russian soldier for his sacrifice, I don't forget they occupied much of Europe longer than the Nazi's did, stripping millions of their freedom and attempting to force an ideology on them from above. The Russians were without a doubt the major factor that defeated Germany, but they were in the wrong almost as much as Germany was. Having the Kremlin try to ignore that reality falls into the pathetic category.
