soviet soil they deliver death without mercy women and children even the elderly most normal people would go mad having to execute orders like that. but officers in s.s. uniform had no such qualms never for a moment or they consider that what they were doing was wrong let alone and being a crime they were trained and prepared by nazi propaganda today even the radical measures are not radical enough deals of couples is to say. here in the us a sergeant german soldiers were captives of another man that in order to bring down the soviet system it was essential to annihilate the jews says they were believed to be the primary foundation of boss of this in other occupied countries the germans would force the jews into ghettos they were allowed to live after invading the u.s.s.r. the nazis began to annihilate entire jewish communities. where the two were critical to pursue i was. when you british people still of seen here those are

myths continue to spread some of which even google's would envy. the yucatan adventure providing you don't know you're there or pretty about the pretty there. should be a percentage there could very similar to the gate there is standing. still a bit misty. there's nae enough to see if you have the right of the russian a miniature wonder if you change your moment there and think you prefer the big beard beast with doug and you know you when you die it is now carries a dash when you put down sr. after the war many german generals were all too keen to publish their memoirs while stalin stuff officers were forbidden to do so that's why much of what's known about the second world war in europe was learned largely from memoirs written by the defeat its side.

in anytime you want. to live. this is mile of a park a popular tourist destination today but few people know that during the second world war one of the country's top secret constructions was hidden away here so secret that a special metro line was built to connect it to the kremlin in one thousand three six the district of a smile of a became a forbidden zone construction began on the central u.s. the south stadium named after joseph stalin which was meant for two hundred thousand spectators but three years later work was put on hold the facility disguised as a stadium was in fact already completed until one thousand nine hundred forty one another myth appeared there were rumors that the soviet government had abandoned moscow the offices in the kremlin were empty and that the city had been surrendered to the germans but the truth was that stalin never actually left moscow and
1:46 am
continued working in the secret bunker here in his mind that. stalin always spoke quietly for this reason special acoustics were designed so that everyone sitting at this table could hear him in. the conference hall of the general headquarters looks more like a palace talent's private chambers remain in a macula condition a battle map hangs on the wall it was updated daily while stalin worked here. another common myth is that stalin and his circle allegedly reinforced the german army with their own hands just before the war started the very much officers are
1:47 am
said to have conducted military exercises at soviet training ranges in reality after hitler came to power the volume of military cooperation. between germany and the u.s.s.r. considerably from the diary of dr joseph campbell used june one thousand forty one cooperation with russia was in fact a stain on our honor but we shall soon wipe it clean i said this to your good agrees with me completely that your believes the operation will take about four months but i believe even less where on the brink of an unprecedented victorious military campaign we must. research or ego is the author of the book the great war that was lied about based on archive materials it is a book the author attempts to debunk the most common myth namely that stalin was
1:48 am
preparing to attack nazi germany himself but hitler turned out to be smarter and struck first. of course i mean. give them some good. listen enough. of us about seems like the only. principle of the noble up to show up across the peninsula and. it's a little something good to see a push to discuss who will publish an illusion. in one nine hundred forty one the soviet defense industry was working at full capacity despite this the number of german military units at the border exceeded the soviet armies five fold this distribution of forces would have made a preemptive attack on germany unwise. the first days of the nazi invasion remain shrouded in mystery and yet it was one myth
1:49 am
during the years that perestroika stalin had so much faith in his nonaggression pact with the soviet union that he was blind to the german threat and consequently failed in his own responsibility as the country's commander in chief. the myth that stalin was in a state of shock could be easily refuted the recently declassified document reveals stalin shadow for june twenty second one hundred forty one the day nazi germany invaded the u.s.s.r. . stallions visitors peoples commissar for foreign affairs moloto varietals by forty five left at twelve o five for general staff of the ride five forty five left up to eight thirty am but he people's commissar for foreign affairs visions be arrived at seven thirty left at ten forty common turn leader dimitrov arrived at eight forty left at ten forty. thirty four. thirty.

1:51 am
conquered countries to be moved out by force and replaced with people of the master race the plan was to be carried out immediately after germany's victory over the soviet union. the plan to colonize parts of the soviet union it extended over the next thirty years as long as german troops continue to fight for main top secrets in order to avoid an uprising of the population of the occupied territories was still being fed myths about their future happy prosperous life according to the planned two cities were to be completely destroyed leningrad and moscow. the siege of leningrad lasted nine hundred days during which nearly six hundred thousand people died of starvation in recent years another myth has appeared that such human losses could have been avoided if the soviet command had surrendered the city to the nazis but
1:52 am
anyone who says that has no idea of. hitler's master plan and the fate yet in store for the city and its residents. from the diary of the chief of the general staff from sculptor july eighth nine hundred forty one the jurors determined to raise moscow or leningrad to the ground to make sure that we don't have to feed their population went to the cities must be demolished by airstrikes this national catastrophe will not only wipe of the centers of both of islam but also that of the entire muscovy.

1:55 am
military propaganda encouraged women and the elderly to take up arms. when soviet troops entered berlin goebbels and his family fled to hitler's bunker that was hidden underneath this where it's now filled with soil and a holocaust memorial has been erected on top of it on may second one thousand nine hundred five the third rice chief ideologist and his wife magda committed suicide. before doing so they poisoned all six of their children with cyanide. would be still blew out into little miss the own that there was a car got soaked in the act they had to leave bill weir id's janja which gracie will but he chose sylia it tells us and yeah maad the somebody china and russia law pull their sets and use them kai you know what the guys that we. did t. even need delish double dog i'm full of this feed to those who buy me to build it guts will last but as a woman has to be yup that discreetness i took over what. not
