So?????????? fighting Nazis did damage to 60 million human being but it had to be done to preserve freedom. To say defeating the soviets discredited freedom is 100% nuts but typically liberal!!
James972:
What good is freedom to the millions of people who died in the hot-war cross fires of the Cold War? Between the Soviets and yourselves the butcher's bill was horrific. Millions in China (not counting the tens of millions to be laid at Mao Zhedong's own feet), over a million in North Korea, almost a million in South Korea, hundreds of thousands in Latin Amerca, over a million in Vietnam/Indochina, countless numbers in Africa, nearly a million in Indonesia, millions in the Middle East and Afghanistan. What good your much vaunted freedom to the dead?
And don't give me the old canard that just like WWII these deaths were unavoidable. Japan and Germany both declared war on the USA. America had no choice in the matter. But the Cold War and Soviet or American neo-colonialism is all on you and Russia because you both chose to do it voluntarily. You two are the manic titans, blinded and made callous by your polar convictions, whose 45 year long fist fight killed millions through your own ideological extremism. The responsibility lies squarely on both of you for this death toll.
Cheers.
