Why communism failed in Poland? [275]
As for taking responsibility... pls answer some of mine questions:
1) You are correct, responsibility falls on the guilty reguardless of country. As for the industry, they paid in blood. Russians are one of the last to take responsibility, but you are right they do not stand alone.
2)Yes, the goverment just as Germany has had to do. I feel putting older men and women behind bars serves very little and in my heart feel they have lived life times with demons that can be worse than any man made cell. It would stand as a lesson to our youth that crimes must be dealt with, least we teach the children history forgets. Accountability is what I ask for, stop the lies, Russia if you hear me , stop treating your citizens as children let them be free to speak the truth.
You say Russians suffered the highest on numbers, I say yes but at least they had a gun to defend themselves. How many Russian died due to Stalins thirst for blood. As a dictator you should look at where you are asking troops to go and what to do, the end result was due to backfire on many of his calls.
I do not say your family could have taken Stalin or Hitler for that matter, out. But my God, today to be throwing this bastard in our face, reviving him as something he was not. This is what I object to. I do not blame the Russian people of today responsible, just as I do not blame US military to the same standards. They did what they were trainned to do, and for many it cost them their life.
It seems everyone is waiting for an apology from someone.
I am sorry, I am sorry this whole bloody war took place and so many lost their lives. I am sorry I never met my grandmother, aunts, uncle and others I never even saw picture of, not to mention a country. Today I am sorry that Russia cannot say, were sorry, Stalin was wrong.
