Quote by Viktor Suvorov, Inside the Sovie
The Communists claim that they liberated the Russian people. Yet, when the Great Patriotic War began, these same Russians greeted their foreign invaders with tears, with flowers and with enthusiastic hospitality. What can have brought them to the point at which they would greet even Hitler as their saviour and liberator?
Summary
This quote suggests that despite the Communist Party's claim of liberating the Russian people, their warm reception of foreign invaders during the Great Patriotic War raises questions about their allegiance to the Communist regime. It points out that Russians, at that time, greeted even Hitler as a potential savior and liberator, leading one to wonder what circumstances could have led to such a drastic change in their perception and why they seemed disillusioned with the Communist leadership. The quote prompts reflection on the complexities of public opinion and reveals a possible shift in the Russian people's trust and support.
