Also interesting that ""Putin's Kremlin has made a fetish of remembering WWII. Funny how they never mention Moscow's partnering-with-Hitler role in starting it. The Soviet Union was not a victim of WWII. They were 1 of the 2 countries that started it. Their thug-partner inconveniently turned on them" - John Schindler."
How thats fun. Some movie picture and stupid demotivator to prove that USSR started WW2
How about Poland having ALLIANCE with nazi Germany since 1934?
How about France and Britain who had pacts with nazi Germany since 1938 and gave Hitler Chechoslovakia in Munich to get it? (Poland btw plundered over Czech together with nazis)
How about USSR been LAST country to make non-aggression pact with nazi Germany?
How about USSR fighting nazis since 1936 war in Spain and japaneese since 1938 in Mongolia?
You know mister but that old anti-Russian propaganda does not work in era of internet

http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/7059931/Mission_to_MoscowWhataboutism is a term for the Tu quoque logical fallacy popularized by The Economist for describing the use of the fallacy by the Soviet Union in its dealings with the Western world during the Cold War. The tactic was used when criticisms were leveled at the Soviet Union, wherein the response would be "What about..." followed by the naming of an event in the Western world loosely similar to the original item of criticism.[1][2] It represents a case of tu quoque or the appeal to hypocrisy, a logical fallacy which attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position, without directly refuting or disproving the opponent's initial argument.
Overview
In 1986, when the Soviet Union belatedly announced a serious nuclear accident in Chernobyl, Ukraine after Western nations reported detecting unusually high radioactivity levels, it did so in one paragraph. The New York Times stated that[3]
The terse Soviet announcement of the Chernobyl accident was followed by a Tass dispatch noting that there had been many mishaps in the United States, ranging from Three Mile Island outside Harrisburg, Pa., to the Ginna plant near Rochester. Tass said an American antinuclear group registered 2,300 accidents, breakdowns and other faults in 1979.
The practice of focusing on disasters elsewhere when one occurs in the Soviet Union is so common that after watching a report on Soviet television about a catastrophe abroad, Russians often call Western friends to find out whether something has happened in the Soviet Union.
At the end of the Cold War the usage of the tactic began dying out, but saw a resurgence in modern Russia in relation to a number of human rights violations and other criticisms expressed to the Russian government.[1] The Guardian writer Miriam Elder discussed how the tactic is used especially by Vladimir Putin's government and his spokesman, but also how most criticisms on human rights violations have generally gone unanswered. However, Elder's article on the difficulty of dry-cleaning in Moscow was responded to instead, with a whataboutism on the difficulty of obtaining a visa to the United Kingdom.[4] In July 2012, RIA Novosti columnist Konstantin von Eggert wrote an article about the use of whataboutism in relation to Russian and American support for different governments in the Middle East.[5]
Although Whataboutism cannot be confined to any particular race or belief system, according to The Economist, it is a tactic often overused by Russians. There are two methods of properly countering Whataboutism. The first is to "use points made by Russian leaders themselves" so that they cannot be applied to a Western nation and the second method is for Western nations to apply more self-criticism in its media and its governmental statements.[1]
