Eisenhower and others knew this would happen and played down the Russian atrocities as he knew he would have to deal with Stalin. There was systematic raping of women, killing of civilians and looting. The Americans were more civilized in that department.

The Germans killed as many Russians as they possibly could in WW2. When Russia retook her lands and then invaded Germany, they had plenty to be angry about. Most likely if Mexico or Canada invaded the USA, and raped our women, etc., would do much damage as possible to teach the invaders a lesson.

My wife's grandmother was shot in front of her home in Rostov-na-Donu "because she looked like a Jew". She survived after the Nazi officer who shot her was told she was Armenian, not a "Judah". My wife's mother (a doctor in Russian Army) lost all her male family members except for her brother. Also she lost her first husband & child.

You are correct. My point is that the Russians have a very long history of this behavior. Being of Eastern European descent I am quite aware. Not only barbaric but evil. Joseph Stalin and his bunch killed millions of his own people and sent unfortunates to gulags. The Germans and Japanese both cleaned up their act.
