    So we watched this in history class today and I thought it was interesting and worthy of sharing with the forums.

    Thoughts?

    Stalin is my kind of guy. He seemed incredibly lazy. When replying to someone accusing him of starving all of the Ukrainians, he replies with "no, you seelly, is not true" and wanders off. Then he misses his mother's funeral. Quite a bro. I bet he could tell some great stories.

    It's hard not to demonize the world's greatest mass murderer.

    Why I've not heard anything about Churchill? He was planning Operation unthinkable, to stab USSR in the back after WW2 and destroy the nation.

    That's balanced learning material...

    Planning and carrying through with something are two totally different things.

    What a pathetic way to admit defeat.

    Churchill was smart. Churchill saw through the reuse of the victorious USSR to see Stalin, a dictator who killed millions of his own people. The USSR and Britain were never allies. It would not be a stab in the back. Churchill was one of the only people who could predict the Iron Curtain and the Cold War. Before WW2, Stalin had invaded Finland, the annexation of the Baltic States, etc, the USSR was an oppressive dictatorship that needed to be eradicated. Unfortunately, nobody listened to Churchill.

    Do you think Stalin or Hitler was the lesser evil?

    No thanks, the beginning was a bit interesting, but I do believe it is all bullcrap stuff we hear about every day, nothing new, nothing revealed.

    Well this was supposed to be about the declassified stuff that came out after Stalin's death. That is the only reason it's called Stalin: Declassified. And because the whole series is called Declassified.
