As for Russia, Stalin having killed off all his Sr. Generals and politicians left his country wide open, hell 10 Divisions of the Finnish army defeated 100 divisions of the Russian army, Russia was ripe for the picking without the massive load of supplies and war materials supplied by the americans and shipped by the british...who by the way gave many a life to keep Russia from folding. err ummm just my comments on the issue.
And a valid contribution too. Thanks MagiK.
