The German Assault on Russia: A WWII Extermination Campaign I SLICE HISTORY | FULL DOCUMENTARY

[@ericjarvie]

This is an truly brilliant and brutally honest dissertation from top German academics and historians which leaves no facts of the insane and doomed Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union untold... Its 100% honest 100% factual and to the highest degree with even the slightest yet most significant historical details fully explored...Sure its no war movie to fill an theatre or entertain the masses by any chalk but at the least it tells like it is...I personally salute those documentary makers for this one!!

Molotov in Berlin One should also consult Victor Suvorov's book THE CHIELF CULPRIT, specifically the 29th chapter called Trotsky Murdered, Molotov in Berlin. You have to remember that Soviet Russia had partnered with Hitler in the invasion and partition of Poland. That chapter is summarized in the following way by Mortimer in the CODOH topic on Barbarossa. Mortimer wrote: In November 1940 (Russia was not an “Allie” yet) Soviet Russian foreign minister Molotov went to Berlin with a list of demands for the German government: • From Finland, Pechenga the only Finnish port on the Barents sea and Porkkala-Udd the strategically located peninsula on the Baltic Sea controlling the entrance to the Gulf of Finland naval bases on the Danish side of the straits of Kattegat and Skagerrak controlling access to the North Sea and Baltic Sea; • From Yugoslavia a naval base on the Adriatic Sea; • From Greece a naval base in the port of Thessaloniki; • From Romania the province of Southern Bukovina, a strategic foothold in the Carpathian mountains to control access to the Ploesti oilfields; • From Bulgaria a pact of alliance with the Soviet Union including Bulgaria in the Soviet sphere of influence; • From Turkey bases in the Bosphorus and Dardanelles straits; • From Iran bases in the Persian Gulf; • the transfer of territories south of the Baku-Batumi line (in eastern Turkey north of Iraq and Iran) to the Soviet sphere of influence; • From Japan the renunciation of its oil concessions in the province of Northern Sakhalin; Notice how these demands included territory that the German government had no control over. Hitler was perplexed. He asked Molotov to arrange a meeting between himself and Stalin so they could sort out the problem in a diplomatic and friendly atmosphere. The message was relayed but nothing came of it. If someone doesn't want to talk to you face to face while claiming to be your friend then that indicates dishonesty. Stalin wasn't interested in a face to face meeting with Hitler. His mind was already made up. He wanted war with his Operation Thunderstorm (Operatsiya Groza). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Bunich It was after this list of demands was presented by Molotov and after the failure to secure a meeting with Stalin that Hitler realized he was being played for a fool and drew up plans for Operation Barbarossa. In other words, neither Churchill nor Roosevelt ever cared about the Soviet Russia invading Poland, the Baltic States, Finland (all in 1939), or any other country, and murdering and banishing people from their homeland. Not to mention that communist doctrine rampant in Soviet Russia considered America and Europe as capitalist enemies, among other things, and was a real threat to the world. But if Hitler decided to invade Soviet Russia, that was a major war crime. For which reason Churchill and Roosevelt immediately came to Stalin’s rescue. Genocide or comrade Stalin over the next few years received as a gift to counter Hitler: Over one hundred thousand jeeps, Studebaker trucks, Sherman tanks, munitions, petrol, food, and even cloth for the uniforms of the red army of rapists.

[@tancreddehauteville764]

There was no long term planning for Barbarossa, it was simply a colossal gamble. Hitler was a compulsive gambler who used human beings as dice to play with. I have to confess that I'm pretty sure that Stalin would eventually have attacked Germany, though perhaps not for another year - the evidence provided by Victor Suvorov is compelling. That said, Hitler's approach was completely wrong, both practically and morally, there was no proper strategy, simply vague objectives, and the mass murder of civilians, Jews and non-Jews, was utter madness. At least, had he kept these people alive and well they could have been used for labour tasks, and there were many such tasks that were badly needed. The crimes of the Wehrmacht were simply the consequences of what happens when large groups of people are automatically absolved of responsibilities for what they do. It's the fear of consequences that stops many normal people from becoming homicidal monsters.

@@priatalat Germany announced it as a war to topple Stalin. Nowhere was "extermination" ever mentioned anywhere, in any way, shape or form, in either German State documents, orders, or even state media. In state media for example (the Deutsche Wochenschau) Russians and slavs are lauded as honest hard working people, oppressed by their regime. Barbarossa started simply because Germany intelligence had been gathering A LOT of information pertaining an impending Soviet invasion, sponsored by Britain and the USA. And so they set to topple Stalin ASAP and by surprise, given they had a much weaker military (already strained by France and England), and surprise and speed was their only weapon. And Stalin then proceeded to press gang his entire population into dying (to the last russian if needed) to protect himself and his career -- and this is where all the russian deaths come from. Instead of signing the peace and accepting his demise, like the French did, he preferred to force a third of his population into dying (and doing so under death threats) Military target cities (like Stalingrad) were often forbidden from being evacuated by the Soviets, and you, as a civilian, would be forced to stay and lose limbs.

[@RBAILEY57]

Hitler had criticized Napoleon in "Mein Kampf" for attacking Russia, while Britain was un-subdued. Then he did the same thing.

[@DK-mc7mp]

It’s also not even true lol > The existence of the German declaration of war on the Soviet Union had long been concealed by Soviet authorities, because it mentions the secret protocol to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact which was revealed only in 1989.[1] In the Soviet press, the German note was first published in 1991.

[@hlf_coder6272]

They’re talking about how bad the Soviet prisoners were treated, but a Soviet prisoner had a better chance of survival in a Nazi camp than a German prisoner did in a Soviet camp. It was horrific on both sides.

[@masroor5672]

I read that Soviet pow who survived the brutal nazi prison when released by red and allied army reached home they were put in gulag camps by Stalin after accused as cowards and betrayal and majority of them could not survive ... Stalin was ten times cold blooded and cruel then Hitler but as he won the war and was with allies so he is remembered as a hero ...

[@priatalat]

The difference is that the Nazis willingly and intentionally set out with the clear intent to annihilate and exterminate entire groups of people. For the Soviet Union however, it was the sheer incompetence of it’s government that caused all the deaths.

[@pikulinromanpikulin4241]

What kind of nonsense are you talking about? Tell this to the prisoners of Auschwitz, Majdanek, and other camps where the Russians put out the fires of the furnaces.

The kriegspeil amde before bBarbarossa showed a failure. With WAY less Soviet forces and renforcemnts. To call it a gamble is... too generous. Once teh Soviets had teh reserves, morale ad strenght to counterattack hard it really was a major loss already. When also declarng war on USA at the same time ... game over.

U guys at Slice make some cool NEW documentaries - no crap! But just an idea - if any of u producers of history content ever think of MAKING A COLORIZED DOCUMENTARY OF UNEDITED PHOTOS OF DEAD SOLDIERS FROM THE WORLD WARS. Know many of us history consumers find it very poignant to see unedited photos of war dead. Know YT would edit it out, but would be great on Netflix or some other platform or on VOD even. Know it would be very successful and so so unique.

[@PlanTonto]

Here's something I was always curious about. When Germany invaded Poland in September 1939 and Germany and USSR agreed to divide up Poland wherein Germany basically take the Western half and USSR Eastern half, more or less, almost 2 years later when Germany had invaded USSR, why didn't the Russians yet occupy their Eastern area agreed upon? The Russians usually when taking over a territory make it known right away. Which I would think there would be Russians soldiers all over the Eastern half. But every documentary I've seen on Barbarosa, never says they start the invasion I Eastern Poland and always seems that it's a surprise immediately into USSR territory. IDK.... just wondering. Because many Jews and others targeted in Poland talk about running to the Eastern half when Germany invaded because the Russians though didn't treat Jews all that well either, that they were the lesser of the two evils. I'm sure this Blitzkrieg they were attempting to do they would have to go through Eastern Poland as well so I figured someone on the Eastern side warning the USSR of all these tons of soldiers,, tanks etc., heading their way.... Anyway, if you answer, don't slam me if I posed a stupid question, just want to learn. Thanks. 😊

[@killahurtz6786]

The Soviets had occupied the western half. Look up "The Defense of Brest Fortress" as convincing proof. This battle took place on what was in 1941 the Germany-Soviet border.

[@dirtbag3736]

Germans had the West Russians the East Western Poland was the launching point for Army Group Centre

[@jasonbeale6875]

Russia attacked in the east. Germany in the west

[@PlanTonto]

@dirtbag3736 They busted through Eastern Poland that quick? Because they were like very close to Moscow within weeks. I forget which general told Hitler that he could almost guarantee Germany has won this war a short time after Barbarossa was launched. Thanks for your reply.

[@PlanTonto]

@jasonbeale6875 Sorry, I re-read my post and realized I got East and West mixed up which is probably the most idiotic thing I could have done as it changed the entire scope of my question.
