#3 "Not France or England, which fed Hitler Czechoslovakia in the hope of directing his expansion to the east. Namely, the USSR, which helped to restore the industry of Germany in the 20s and 30s."

#5 I remember the words of an historian who said: The main difference between Nazi camps (the regular ones like Dachau, not the extermination camps) and Stalin's GuLag was that the Nazis wanted you to die by working to death. The Soviets wanted you to work and just didn't care whether you died or not.
