    Many years ago, I heard a story similar to one in this video from a Hungarian woman who had been a young teenager in Budapest during WWII. She said that her city had been occupied three different times during the war, and that of all the occupiers, the Russians were the worst. I was astonished, and I asked, "Worse than the Nazis?" And she answered, "Much worse than the Nazis. The Russians were barbarians. My sisters and I had to stay hidden in our house to keep from being raped. When we were occupied by the Germans everything was peaceful and orderly. I know the Nazis did terrible things to the Jews, but in regard to everything that I experienced there was normal law and order under German occupation."
    The quotation I just gave is actually a paraphrase, because this conversation was held many years ago, and obviously I can't remember her exact words. Nevertheless, this was the gist of what she said, and she was very emphatic about it. After the war, during the late 40s and the 50s, she had lived under communist rule in Hungary and was in Budapest when the Russians came back to suppress the Hungarian revolt. After that, she escaped Hungary and came to the United States. She deeply despised the Russian people as a consequence of her experiences.

      It was the American led allies that at the end of WW2 agreed Russia should be the „liberators“ of Berlin considering of the many thousands of Soviet deaths suffered. The responsibility of the surrender process in germany was divided up between the Soviets, the French, British and Americans.
      Germans that experienced that time told me that they were scared stiff of it being the Russians. The stories of their brutality, rapes, pillaging etc had been told ahead of them.

      My dad rolled through Germany in the spring of 1945 with the Third Armored Division, and when German townsfolk saw the U.S. tank columns, they ran from their houses cheering. They were all quite vocal that they were terrified of Russian troops. Now, make no mistake, there were atrocities even from American GIs, but the difference was that if the GI was caught, they would be court martialed and imprisoned whereas the Russians considered rape and pillaging part of their compensation.

      My father was in the Italian campaign, starting at Taranto in the south, and working their way north. By the end of the war, they had crossed the border into Austria. What the British troops found was that the Russians had already passed through. Everything had been stolen, even the knobs on the doors. And every woman and girl in the country had been raped. This was a revenge thing for the Russians - you humiliate the defeated enemy by humiliating his women. It's a nasty nasty attitude. The British troops, by contrast, behaved themselves - as the Ukrainians are in Kursk right now.

    Remember that Ukraine is like the UK, with a climate less extreme than their neighbours and good soil for agriculture, mineral wealth like Coal and Iron Ore, Salt mines, oil and gas, a large coastline (including Crimea), with good ports. and a large population density of poets and musicians, great engineers and innovators, used to fighting off foreign invaders, and not easily oppressed. That Zelenskiy can be compared to Churchill is no mistake.

      Remember that in the UK, Scotland and (for instance) England are two different peoples. Similar to the West Ukrainians and the Donbass Ukrainians. Crimea is even a completely different story. Portraying them as one great nation is distorting the historic truth.
      And by the way, Churchill was a leader, Zelensky is a beggar, there is no comparison.

Fact- Ukraine a sovereign nation did not ask to be invaded., and its cities of the "rescued by the Russians" by being bombed to oblivion .Fotunately the English feel no compunction to bomb Glasgow or torture the residents of Aberdeen at the moment, and the Scots aren't sending missiles to London.

      He wouldn't win anywhere. No one I've ever talked to here in the states 1. Cares about Ukraine. 2. Know aanything that is going on in Ukraine / Russia 3. Doesn't think we should be giving any money to Ukraine Especially while we are not doing well in our own country. The idea that most americans agree with funding ukraine is absurd. I'd say mosr Americans support Ukraine over Russia. But that's not the same thing as supporting Ukraine monetarily. Jake also said China would invade russia at the start of the war which was ridiculous at that time and still ridiculous even though he's not saying the same thing anymore.

    I think it is historically correct to call russians Moscovites, and Ukraine should claim its historic name Rus. Ukraine-Rus. You are right Jake, this war is not about the territory. Russia already stole Ukrainian historic name, tried to change history, take Ukrainian identity, erase Ukrainian culture and language, created this myth about "one people", final attempt is to get rid of the true heir.

      While it’s true, I doubt the name is associated with anything good anymore. It’s been stained with shame. The doctor who treated the assassin of Abraham Lincoln, was named Mudd. When we hold someone in contempt and no longer wish to associate with him/her, their ‘name is Mudd’. In the future, perhaps our descendants will refer to society’s rejects by another, (more recent) infamous name. Time will tell.

He and many Ukrainians I spoke to are mystified about Putin's motive/s. Several said, when I asked what they would do if all outside aid stopped, "We'll keep fighting.

      Putin needed an excuse to invade Ukraine, and what better way than invent a Nazi invasion in Ukraine, since the Russians are still living in the 1940's. None of the invaders have seen any Nazis, no Nazi camps, no trains, no complaints from the Jewish population or their Jewish relatives around the world. But the empty-headed population can't use critical thinking.

    The Golden Horde occupied what we call Russia for about 250-300 years (~1240 to ~1500 AD). Their rule was essentially, do things our way or die. Moskov was an obscure village, founded in 1147 on a river which may or may not have been settled by Vikings in their longships.
    Moskov enthusiastically adopted the Horde's edict - indeed, what choice did they have? As a reward, the Horde gave Moskov dominion over near-by settlements. But more than that, Moskov adopted the Horde's way of doing things. So began the Russian nation. And to this day, Russians have preserved the Golden Horde's way of doing things. Lest you be confused, that village, Moskov, is known in the English speaking world as Moscow.

    Half a million men are either dead or severely disabled in Russia. Add in the forces still on the battlefield and it's a big demographic problem for the Russians. They don't have enough equipment that's home built, their manpower is needed at home to just keep the economy ticking over.
