What the Average Citizen "Knows" About WW2
a) That Hitler was the worst human being in history. b) That the Japanese bombed us at Pearl Harbor totally out of the blue. c) That it was only the Germans and Japanese who perpetrated war crimes. And d) that the dropping of not just one but two atomic bombs was totally necessary and just.......What a bunch of happy morons we are.

Joseph Goebbels would have like you.
"Use force and break the racial pride of these German women. Take them as your lawful booty. Kill! As you storm onward, kill, you gallant soldiers of the Red Army!" Soviet Commissar, Ilya Ehrenburg 1945. So, did Goebbels ever say anything that bad?
As even Churchill himself concluded in 1960, "We butchered the wrong pig."
Churchill also traded most of eastern Europe to the 'wrong pig' for influence in Greece. Atrocities abounded on both sides during the Nazi-Russian conflict,
we condone neither, but recognize both.
But we don't recognize both sides. We don't read about Dresden, Tokyo, Operation Keelhaul, the sinking of these 2 refugee vessels, the British genocide in India, the French genocide in Algeria, the fact that Churchill started the civilian bombings and NOT Hitler, the illegal hunger blockade during WW1, the ethnic cleansing of Germans after WW2, the Rhine Meadows death camps, the Katyn Forest massacre, the Russian genocide in Ukraine, etc., etc.. All we hear about is Hitler.
"the Russian genocide in Ukraine"
And it is starting again. At least an echo of it.
And the new Stalinists in Greece strongly support this.
