NATO was founded after WW2 to counter the USSR. Had Germany behaved like a civilized neighbor then the USSR wouldn't have occupied the whole of Eastern Europe. The Germans invaded the USSR and behaved like savages, open a history book ffs
The USSR withdrew after negotiations with the West and promises were made that NATO would not expand East and we all know what happened.
The last couple decades NATO is being used as a geo-political tool to threaten and bully anyone who doesn't fall in line but this time you provoked a response from a country you can't bully into submission. Good.
NATO is an aggressive and toxic alliance and deserved a monumental loss like the one the Russians are inflicting right now. It will take decades to rebuild meaning decades of peace for the rest of the world.
Why are you rambling about germany? You didn't click on the link did you?
Also for ww2 history i do believe the orcs wanted to split Poland with the nazis. Dont know if you skipped over that part of history. When they did join the allies their greatest contribution to the war was taking 1st place in the rape Olympics.
As Allied troops entered and occupied German territory during the later stages of World War II, mass rapes of women took place both in connection with combat operations and during the subsequent occupation of Germany by soldiers from all advancing Allied armies, although a majority of scholars agree that the records show that a majority of the rapes were committed by Soviet occupation troops.[1] The wartime rapes were followed by decades of silence.[2][3][4][5][6]

According to historian Antony Beevor, whose books were banned in 2015 from some Russian schools and colleges, NKVD (Soviet secret police) files have revealed that the leadership knew what was happening, but did little to stop it.[7] It was often rear echelon units who committed the rapes.[8] According to professor Oleg Rzheshevsky, "4,148 Red Army officers and many privates were punished for committing atrocities".[9] The exact number of German women and girls raped by Soviet troops during the war and occupation is uncertain, but historians estimate their numbers are likely in the hundreds of thousands, and possibly as many as two million.[10]
