    It called total war for a reason! I'm sure the allies had an idea of what was going on and what those aerial photos were but as already pointed out it would of been a waste of rescources to bomb the trainlines, ovens etc especially when there were key strategic targets yet to be taken out. The best we could do for those people inside the camps was concentrate on the Nazi's war effort and hopefully liberate them faster!

    its a simple fact that its 100% impossible fot Stalin to have killed 13.2 million, 10 million, or even 8 million Jews....as you have speculated.

    no more than 7 million Jews were ever under Stalin's control.

    Well, how do you explain 30% of the deaths in Babi Yar being Jews? I mean, there weren't that many Jews in the Soviet Union. Yes?

    and yes, Hitler did kill around 6 million Jews. Hitler killed around 12 million civilians, around half of them being Jewish.

    Stalin was not responsible for the killings at Babi Yar.

    That's irrelevant. You said there weren't that many Jews in The Soviet Union. Why are you defending Stalin? Is he your hero?

    Hell, the only reason Hitler isn't a Left Wing hero, is because of the Holocaust.

    He was Times' Man of The Year, before they found out about the Holocaust.

    As for the times man of the year "Person of the Year (formerly Man of the Year) is an annual issue of the United States newsmagazine Time that features and profiles a person, couple, group, idea, place, or machine that "for better or for worse, ...has done the most to influence the events of the year".
    Doesnt mean they agreed with what he was doing but he was having an impact on world events, common misperception.

    Yeah, right apdst, all socialists go for heavily regimented societies defined by class, race and sex.
    "Strength is the first virtue. That is not a pleasant fact. Its distastefulness does not alter the truth that without strength to protect them, all other virtues are ephemeral, ultimately meaningless"

    This all concept of Hitler being a socalist is very new to me and to be honest baffles me. I just do not understand how people can get away with calling Hitler left wing.
