In recent years, May 9 takes on new meaning for all who care about the Russian history. As we approach this date Ideological confrontation, in evaluating the role of Stalin in World War II, is becoming more acute. For those who want to extol Stalin, today there are many tools for promoting their own ideas. The "Snob" decided to create a platform for alternative expression.

Yes, there is no confrontation! This is a contrived theme. There is a story.
In 1905, the tsarist Russia, which like to cite as an example of Stalin's rule, shamefully lost the war in Japan. Because the king was gutless and incompetent commander Kuropatkin. And in the Great Patriotic except the people was a worthy chief. In war, won the people, but people need to lead! (AIF)

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Under the leadership of "decent commander in chief" on the Eastern Front the Germans only in the period from 22 June to 1 December 1941 was captured 3806861 POW.
"Brilliant commander!

I agree, was: Marshal Georgy Zhukov ..
Better to let this contest than posters with portraits of Stalin on the streets of Moscow ..

[Любознательный]

SergeiSK,
I agree that such responses should be moved in the "Pavilion".
Then we will develop a theme raised.
But if the response is not moved ...
Let me note that the war itself (as such) as the time and was the result of "wisdom" - Stalin pact, the Ribbentrop-Molotov.
Reinforcement areas were destroyed or disarmed. The fighting on the old frontier to stop the movement of Germans (Kiev). But at what price, and after some losses.
In the early days of the war almost everything was profukano.
Stalin's decision (independent) are well known: Rzhevsky offensive and attempt to break the blockade Peter. Only then, after the sad consequences of this, decisions are influenced by the views of Zhukov.
Without repeating the arguments of Cyril Syzran and Eugene (with which I fully agree), I want to note that for Stalin, besides the failure of Tsaritsyn in 1918), there was nothing in the Civil War. Experience in managing the troops he was absent. Terror on the top and middle managers in the Army before the war to other developments lead but could not.
Read more must be about the war. And the media and post-Stalin doputinskih.

[SergeiSK]

But why should I here to argue with the stubborn citizens? Butt quotations, figures, names? Let's agree to differ. Who wants to express himself, then he will do on May 9 at a meeting with veterans. They shall see who is right or not.

At a meeting with "veterans" or "war veterans"?

In the Brezhnev there was a nice substitute the term "soldier" to "veteran". And as soon as the list of "veterans" were, roughly speaking, all interested:
all sorts of staff rat NKVDshniki, SMERSH-fighters, gunners security detachments, instructor regional committees. And they were all treated as war veterans, becoming the "veterans".
It remains only to find out who from the "veterans" veteran, and who - "Veteran".

I prefer this contest than posters with portraits of Stalin on the streets of Moscow ..

But even if the competition will let some noise, scoffed. But can not rewrite history, as it was, so it should be!
