83 YEARS AGO: OPERATION BARBAROSSA

JUNE 22, 1941

On this date, N**i Germany in cooperation with several of its allies launched an invasion of the USSR, unleashing the most destructive war in modern history.

In addition to geopolitical objectives, Hi**er’s regime viewed the invasion as a war of conquest, designed to exterminate or enslave the populace and convert the Soviet Union into a German colony. Barbarossa was the largest military operation in history, involving well over 3.5 million Axis troops supported by thousands of aircraft and armored vehicles.

Four years later, Hi**er was dead and Germany overrun, Stalin controlled Eastern Europe and over 30 million people had perished.
