The 'greatest allies' were Soviet Union, Britain and USA. Go figure. And the most grievously harmed peoples, in terms of numbers, were the Soviets. Not the 6 Garillion Billion - and now we deserve a homeland peeps, but three times that figure. And they were fighting on their own soil. Google the WW2 casualty numbers and see for youself who bore the brunt on any side of that war.
What happooned? Why are the Russians now pitted against their former allies?
Operation paperclip meant that the German, and Western Ukrainian Officer-POWs were quickly moved to 'allied countries' instead of letting them inhumanely starve to death in open-air fenced off, dry, no-food prisons, as the enraged Americans were wont to do. After all, those were officers, not just plods.
Soviets sent those officer POWs to work-camp Gulags in a frozen place. Half-alive, or dying, whatever. Westerners were more subtle (LOL), and placed them in their militaries. So now, the difference in treatment of those paperclipped officers is coming back and haunting the peeps who cavorted with the enemy. The West did NAtSee that coming.
