USSR wasn't an "evil empire". It was just another, different, way of social organisation, that had it's obvious advantages and drawbacks. I am far from thinking that you are absolutely satisfied with modern America, just because you are a patriot.
Please, understand, that the main purpose of this topic was to show Finns some evidence about Finnish atrocities and genocide against non-Finnish population on occupied terrritories. Some Finnish friends here denied this facts completely.
