I believe the term is "payback"...

The Nazis killed an estimated 20 million people in the Soviet Union during WWII.

Stalin had killed off almost his entire military command during his purges prior to the war due to political paranoia, then **** himself when it started (what a brilliant man ) - second lieutenants were being promoted to general and **** just because there was no one with any military experience left

Hence why the Finns were able to give them a damn good arse kicking during the Winter War.

Here is an extract, Starlin is still loved by a lot of people in Russia. There are even Starlin inpersonators

Under the dictatorship of Joseph Stalin, tens of millions of ordinary individuals were executed or imprisoned in labour camps that were little more than death camps. Perceived political orientation was the key variable in these mass atrocities. But gender played an important role, and in many respects the Purge period of Soviet history can be considered the worst gendercide of the twentieth century.

The Finns were also well prepared and commanded almost single-handedly by von Mannerheim, one of the greatest military leaders of the 20th century (guy was already like 80 and a veteran of every Russian and Finnish war in the past 60 years, mad grizzled).

Oh right, I should have watched the clip, I thought you were on about what they did to the Germans...yeah, Stalin was a nutcase.

The Soviet prisoners of war that had managed to survive the Nazi concentration camps were treated with suspicion and often sent to work camps in Siberia as Stalin believed them to be Nazi spies.

The first Finnish Russian war of the 2nd world war is interesting there is a small segment on World at War and i have read the wiki on it but i would like to get a book on it, but i am already reading books on the French in WW1, war without garlands, Japanese tank tactics of WW2 and French battleships of WW2, i seem to start a book and never finish it lol.
