I certainly sympathize, and won't tell you how to feel. I am not Jewish and can't relate to the unconscionable suffering.
But Russia's role was certainly white-washed in the post war period. Germany had such an advanced military that it took the entire United Nations to defeat them. It was ultimately America's industrial might that was their downfall.
