A cult book by a leading Stalinist historian that refutes the dirtiest myths about the Great Patriotic War. Trying to discredit and de-heroize our past, Russia’s enemies are going after the most sacred thing—our people’s memory of Victory. They want to steal the main triumph of the Stalin era from us. Echoing Goebbels’s propaganda, “liberal” pseudo-historians revisionists insist that Victory was achieved “at an excessively high price,” that the war was allegedly “won by penalty battalions and blocking units, who shot at their own,” that the Red Army did not liberate— it “enslaved half of Europe” and “raped Germany,” and that Soviet citizens who survived captivity and occupation were allegedly sent to Siberia almost en masse, and so on and so forth. The enemies equate the USSR with Nazi Germany, Soviet soldiers with fascist executioners. And now they demand that our country “pay and repent,” ban Soviet symbols along with Nazi ones, and remove monuments to liberators… But we have nothing to repent for! This book is the best rebuttal to slanderers, a resounding slap in the face to the “liberal” Judas, and an exposure of historical fakes spread by the enemies of the people.
