Who said it did? Who said that the Russians did? You took a simple statement in the article and are using it to try and derail this thread.
No... I took a factual part of the article from a source that is know for not fact checking. It is after all the same publication that claimed that Steven Hawkins would be dead if he had grown up in the UK and been treated on the NHS...... and if you cant see the problem with that statement then I feel sorry for you.
Point is, that the statement it self is factually wrong and sticks out like sore thumb. Hence if that is factually wrong, then what else is?
That, and the Nazi SS part of the story which was short lived.
Could be true or not.. we dont know, but we do know that the publication in question has mentioned something factually wrong.. so could this be wrong as well?
Why did you even enter this thread if you didn't intend on discussing the topic which is the man and how he fought against Communism?
I entered this thread because I saw something factually wrong in the OP article which puts the whole story in question. If he even existed, then cool he fought Communism, but he did it by backing genocidal fascism and the US then welcomed him into their own military.. which frankly is disgusting but not surprising. The guy was in the SS... but then again because of the grossly factually wrong comment on Finland, then the whole article must be put in question..
Face it, if they did not fact check a simple historical fact... look it up on Wikipedia for **** sake, then why on earth should we believe the rest of the story?
