You have to remember at the end of that war the US, UK, and USSR were “Allies”. They divvied up the land that Germany had conquered, and the US & UK gave Russia “temporary control” of the eastern half of Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria. Russia put in their own puppets and controlled all of them for 45 years.
I don’t think the West underestimated Russia or Stalin. They just thought they could live with them. Japan was beaten. One of the reasons the US dropped the atomic bombs on Japan anyway was to demonstrate to Russia that they possessed them. They were wrong that Russia could be contained, and in ‘49 Russia exploded their own bomb (courtesy of spies inside the US atomic program). They will never, ever, EVER stop pushing and trying to regain their Soviet “empire”. That’s why Ukraine MUST win.
it feels so insane that a lot of people in soviet union had parallel russian names they used instead of their own non-slavic names. we were just living like that

Cristy Ren has to be one of the 10 sexiest women alive.
Thing is, trump isn’t any more of a conservative than a turd is. The only thing he cares about is himself. He’s not pro-life, he’s pro-trump. He’s not pro-second amendment, he’s pro-trump. He’s not pro-Jesus, he’s pro-trump. And it’s unconscionable that after all this time, his minion haven’t figured this out.
Hell, I hope they recruit a whole division of helpers!!!
Ukrainian saboteurs who are alleged to have poisoned and killed 46 Russian soldiers are on the run in annexed Crimea after a shoot-out with police, a local report says. Two young saboteurs who had poisoned members of the Russian military in Simferopol and Bakhchisarai fled when authorities attempted to detain them in Crimea, Telegram channel Kremlin Snuffbox said on Tuesday. The police went to apprehend the female suspects at a private house in Yalta but were surprised to find them "well armed" and "well prepared," the post said.
The saboteurs opened fire and fled the scene in a car, and authorities do not know their current whereabouts. Three officers were killed and two were wounded in the shoot-out, a source in Russia's Federal Security Service told the Telegram channel. It was reported in December that members of a Ukrainian partisan group called Crimean Combat Seagulls poisoned and killed 24 Russian soldiers after lacing their vodka with arsenic and strychnine. At the time, Snuffbox quoted unnamed sources as saying that "two nice girls" tricked the unit in Simferopol, Crimea, into drinking the vodka, per the Kyiv Post translation. In another incident, saboteurs killed 18 and hospitalized 14 Russian personnel in Bakhchisarai, Crimea, by putting arsenic and rat poison in pies and beer, Kremlin Snuffbox previously reported. Russian military personnel stationed in Crimea have been asked not to take any food or any drinks from strangers and to detain any suspicious young women who approach them to prevent further incidents of poisoning. Business Insider could not independently verify the report. There were also been reports of two mass poisonings of Russian troops in Mariupol in 2023. Acts of sabotage by Ukrainian resistance and partisan groups are used to harass Russian soldiers in Crimea, the Ukrainian peninsula occupied by Russia since 2014, and other occupied territories, and supply intelligence for Ukrainian strikes on military installations.
