Russia stopped Nazi Germany, Nobody else.

[Bosniensis]

I am sick of watching Holywood movies about how "U.S" stopped Nazi Germany.

United States contribution in comparison with Russia is 10% against 90% Russian.

The only thing Americans did is they invaded Western Europe at the END OF THE WAR in 1944 with few hundred thousand soldiers who were chasing leftover of Nazi Armies towards Berlin.

I am of firm belief that United States shouldn't even be mentioned as a significant factor on European Fronts regarding WWII.

Yugoslavia did more in WW2 European Front with it's 800.000 soldiers than United States

Lol, Stalin himself admitted that Russia would be defeated without US Lend-Lease aid.

Americans invent things on the fly. I am sure that Stalin said many things in Hollywood movies.

too bad Russkies and Germans didn't get along. it would have been very interesting to see Europe divided between them. but Germans were too idealistic, well mannered and honorable. otherwise they could have just joined Russkies and Japs and rule Eurasia.

Communist monster, power-hungery demagogue who wanted to be worshiped as God and Savior.

He brought radical nihilism to lands which were christian and muslim traditionalists.

I wish he never existed.

Nihilists love him.

From Khrushchev's memoirs:

I would like to express my candid opinion about Stalin's views on whether the Red Army and the Soviet Union could have coped with Nazi Germany and survived the war without aid from the United States and Britain. First, I would like to tell about some remarks Stalin made and repeated several times when we were "discussing freely" among ourselves. He stated bluntly that if the United States had not helped us, we would not have won the war. If we had had to fight Nazi Germany one on one, we could not have stood up against Germany's pressure, and we would have lost the war. No one ever discussed this subject officially, and I don't think Stalin left any written evidence of his opinion, but I will state here that several times in conversations with me he noted that these were the actual circumstances. He never made a special point of holding a conversation on the subject, but when we were engaged in some kind of relaxed conversation, going over international questions of the past and present, and when we would return to the subject of the path we had traveled during the war, that is what he said. When I listened to his remarks, I was fully in agreement with him, and today I am even more so.

Soviet leaders themselves say you're wrong.

Older generations worship him, younger generations despise him. Time proved he made a lot of damage to all ex-Yugoslavian republics.

Yep that's right. In fact that's the reason why the US became so rich powerful after that. They didn't get themselves involved in Europe until the very end when the Russians were already defeating the Germans on every front. US made a lot of money from the war after that.
