Oh I am sure the master race thought themselves exeptional. Many similarities between the two nations. Financial terrorism, military terrorism, social terrorism, racial terrorism and religious terrorism.
1. Putin just talking to the Russians eh. Any countries leaders speeches are read/listened to/analysed by many people. His exceptionalism in portraying that the a particular US generation won the war was sickening.Originally Posted by MrG
2. The speech was to acknowledge/celebrate the anniversary of the surrender of Germany at the end of WWII. Not some homey Sunday night bedtime story for the US population to go to bed feeling warm and content. Get real.
3. Cherry picking indeed, care to quote any other passages from the speech where he praises the efforts/shared involvement of other countries, by name or generally, in bringing Germany to the surrender table.
4. The POTUS is a "here today, gone tomorrow" politician. The exceptional attitude of the US people, reinforced by his commemorative speech, is not. Only by being beaten by all the allies, during WWII, changed the German leaders, military and populations perception of being the "master race".
Vladimir or Obama who is the more dangerous?
