Historian Mark Solonin : Koba (sralin) and his USSR Marxist empire prepared attack on Germany, clear evidence


"5. My opponent pounds (himself) with a ladle on the forehead: “What do we see? Once again, this is not for newspapers, not for propaganda. This is a secret document, strictly secret, in one copy, to Pavlov, Tymoshenko, Zhukov. The first paragraph. “Non-aggression pacts between the USSR and Germany,” write Tymoshenko and Zhukov, “between the USSR and Italy at the present time, we can assume that they ensure a peaceful situation on our western borders." This is not the Pravda newspaper, it is a secret document. "The USSR does not think of attacking Germany and Italy," the chief of the General Staff writes to the chief of the future Western Front
I am in the know - but thanks for reminding me. This is a very interesting (significant) moment. I wrote about this almost 8 years ago (published in Military-Industrial Courier No. 25 (442) of June 27, 2012). The Internet remembers everything. I quote myself:

“Comparing documents at the district level with the general plan for the strategic deployment of the Red Army, we immediately notice one remarkable difference. District documents (directives of the people's commissar of defense and plans for the operational deployment of the district / front troops developed on the basis of these directives) begin with one standard phrase, literally verbatim (or with tiny, purely stylistic differences, such as: "meaning" instead of "taking into account" ) repeating from document to document: “Non-aggression pacts between the USSR and Germany, between the USSR and Italy at the present time, it can be assumed, ensure a peaceful situation on our western borders. The USSR does not think of attacking Germany and Italy. These states, apparently, also do not think to attack the USSR in the near future. ” "

more numbers :

Germany entered war in 1939 with 3,195 tanks. As Suvorov points out, this was fewer than a single Soviet factory in Kharkov, operating on a “peacetime” basis, was turning out every six months.

By 1941 everyone recognized the tank as the primary weapon of an army of attack in a European land war. During this period, Suvorov shows, the Soviets were producing large quantities of the well armed “Mark BT” tank, predecessor of the famed T34 model. “BT” were the initials for the Russian words “high speed tank.” The first of this series had a top speed of 100 kilometers per hour, impressive even by today’s standards. But as Suvorov goes on to note, this weapon had a peculiarity:

“Having said so many positive things about the numbers and quality of Soviet tanks, one must note one minor drawback. It was impossible to use these tanks on Soviet territory …Mark BT tanks could only be used in an aggressive war, only in the rear of the enemy and only in a swift offensive operation, in which masses of tanks suddenly burst into enemy territory …Germany formed its first airborne assault units in 1936, and by 1939 had 4,000 paratroops.

And the USSR? Suvorov explains: “By the beginning of the war [1939], the Soviet Union had more than one million trained paratroopers — 200 times more than all other countries in the world put together, including Germany…. It is quite impossible to use paratroopers in such massive numbers in a defensive war…. No country in history, or indeed all countries in the world put together, including the Soviet Union, has ever had so many paratroopers and air assault landing sub-units as Stalin had in 1941.”

More numbers =/= Ready to attack.

Most were out of date and/or ineffective. The KV-1 and T34s were too few.

The officer case had not been rebuilt. The army was in the midst of restructuring.

Many of the former East Bloc states have never really come to terms with their past and the folks who collaborated with the Nazis. In many states— Croatia, Ukraine, Romania, Hungary, the Baltic States— collaborators and those who participated in the Holocaust are celebrated as heroes of “anti communist resistance”.

So if numbers are what matters why did the Soviets put less men on the border than the Germans?

Yes. In fact we know from Soviet records themselves the state of their disarray, and how badly they were prepared for any type of conflict.

By late spring 1941 the Soviets were aware the Germans were planning something, but under Stalin's insistence and the complete collapse of the Soviet logistical system they were still not prepared for conflict.

Actually Glantz pointed out in Stumbling Colossus that the annexation of Bessarabia, the Baltics, and Poland all ended up hurting Soviet defensive planning, since it invalidated their pre-existing plans and left the Soviet border regions out of position and no longer capable of supporting one another as intended.
