The Balance between Security and Privacy
In today's world, security and privacy are often at odds. As threats like terrorism evolve, governments
feel increasing pressure to monitor communications and gather personal data in the name of national
security. However, this comes at the cost of individual privacy. Striking the right balance between
these competing priorities is challenging but crucial.
On the one hand, enhanced surveillance powers allow law enforcement to detect and prevent threats
before they materialize. In a post-9/11 era, it is understandable that governments want to do everything

1. Stalingrad Narrative
The Battle of Stalingrad
In August 1942, Hitler's massive Sixth Army marched to the city that was named after Stalin.
During the five–month siege, the Russians fought to hold the city and were determined to hold it at
any cost. The book Stalingrad shows the roles of soldiers on both the Russian and German side, as
well as fighting in inhuman conditions, and some of the experiences from civilians who were
trapped in the battlefield. Antony Beevor interviewed some of the survivors and discovered new
untold stories and facts in a wide range of German and Soviet archives. Some of these included
prisoner interrogations and reports of desertions and executions. As a story of cruelty, courage, and
human suffering, Stalingrad is extraordinary and unforgettable.
Many historians argue that the Battle of Stalingrad was "the turning point" of WW II in Europe.
During the course of war, changes in moods, thoughts, and impressions of the Germans, Romanians
and Soviets were easily depicted. It documents the impact on the psychological changes of the war
but justifies how it changed the history of modern warfare as we know it. Stalingrad is a story of the
well–known Battle of Stalingrad that took place on the Eastern Front of Europe during World War
II, which is written by world–renowned historian Antony Beevor. It covers all the parts of the siege
from start to finish, it begins from the Axis invasion of the USSR, right up to the very end of the
outcomes of the various prisoners–of–war that were captured at Stalingrad.
On June 22, 1941, Adolf Hitler launched his massive army eastward in order to invade the Soviet
Union. The army consisted of three groups with over three million German soldiers, 150 divisions,
and three thousand tanks. The invasion covered a front from the North Cape to the Black Sea, a
distance of two thousand miles. By this point German military was the best at everything they did,
the forces invading Russia represented the best and strongest army to fight during that time.
Barbarossa was the crucial turning point in World War II, for its failure forced Nazi Germany to
fight a two–front war against a coalition possessing immensely superior resources.

The Pianist's Depictions of Historical Events
The Warsaw ghetto uprising fighters was formed when Jews in Poland learned that the Germans
main plan was to eradicate the Jews completely. Before the Jews learned about the plan of Nazis,
they did not carried out acts resistance against their enemies. The driving force that started this
resistance was that if Nazi plan was to destroy the ghetto, resisting these perpetrators was not an
option to the Jews but a survival mechanism. Einwohner states that
"the coalitions of Jewish activists in the Warsaw Ghetto used a small arsenal of smuggled weapons
and homemade explosives to resist the Nazis' attempts to deport them to the death camp Treblinka."
The evidences demonstrated in Polanski's film contradict this statement; that is, the Warsaw ghetto
fighters came into existence because they wanted to defeat Nazi German. With the little weapons
that the ghetto fighters had, the supposition depicted in the film that they wanted to fight off the
Germans in order to defeat them can easily to refuted. The ghetto uprising also inspired many
uprisings to occur in places outside of Poland where Jews are imprisoned or held. However, by the
film was unable was again to illustrate that.
According to Kieżun (2006, p. 41) states that the animosity of Nazi Germans was even more acutely

military; Trotsky was a close friend of Lenin which helped Trotsky get the place at the head of the
Military Revolution committee of the Petrograd soviet. Under Trotsky's leadership, the military
revolutionary committee was actually planning to seize power of the government in 1917.
Trotsky was placed in a very powerful position in the Military and he desperately wanted to take
power of the government. Trotsky then helped the Bolsheviks take power, and then an anti–

Under his leadership, life in the Red army was hard, discipline was very tough, anyone who tried to
desert was shot.
b) Stalin emerged at Lenin's successor because he was a loyal supporter of Lenin; also he was the
commissar for nationalities and the general security of the communist party.
However, he also did have some points against him which shows why Stalin shouldn't have won the
election. Firstly, Stalin wrote that he himself should not be the successor of Lenin (this demonstrates
how loyal Stalin was to Lenin), he did not believe that he was good enough to take over from Lenin,
he did not think he was as good as Lenin, also Stalin came from a poor, working class background,
which meant that some people did not believe that he should be in control of Russia. Lastly Stalin
also did not have any outstanding achievements, which gives the question of why he should be the
successor instead of Trotsky.
In some ways Trotsky deserved to win more than Stalin, Firstly most of the people of Russia thought
that he was the second best leader after Lenin, which is a strong point in favour for Trotsky. Also he
was known as a very strong leader already in the military, he organised the Bolshevik takeover in
1917 and he also took control of the red army during the Russian civil war.

7. Book Review on Blood Red Snow
Blood Red Snow, by Gunter K. Koschorrek is a graphic rendition of the German War in the Eastern
front, which began in 1942. Koschorrek is a former German soldier who kept a frequent account of
his experience in the steppes of Russia and the advancement of the German battalion in Stalingrad.
Written as a memoir, Koschorrek's writing serves as a first hand account of the tank and cavalry
warfare in the Eastern front. Rather than glorifying the heroic aspects of death and destruction in
war, Koschorrek's strives to give a realistic account of the bitter struggle and retreat of the German
army during World War II. His documentation of his experiences in Blood Red Snow serves as a
tribute to the survivors as well as the fallen soldiers of the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net
...
The production focuses on the period before and during Koschorrek's station in Stalingrad and
places Hitler's decision for a two–front war in a historical context. The documentary covers the
massive success of 'Operation Barbarossa', Hitler's artillery barrage strategy in 1941 up until the
retreat of the German army in 1943. Hitler Turns East tells the audience how the German army
ultimately failed despite its initial success. Although the German army quickly and powerfully
dissolved Soviet defenses, the Red Army bought the German troops to a standstill. These aspects of
the documentary are clearly accounted by Koschorrek in far more, firsthand detail in his memoir.
The Soviet Army continually drives the German troops from their positions and this is specifically
shown in Koschorrek's entry of November 20th and December 13th 1942. Stationed along the Don,
a river running along Stalingrad, Koschorrek records "the Russians have also broken through,"
Romanian lines in the south, "and are coming at us from both sides, trying to take us in a pincer
movement". The documentary specifically remarks on the pincer strategy of the Soviet troops, a
method that attempts to encircle and surround troops but cutting off defense lines at both sides. The
documentary also remarks on the involvement of Romanian troops while Koschorreck goes into

The Bolsheviks have their supporters who were the red Army. (Figes 168). The red army was a
volunteer force of proletarians from the Urban citadels of Bolshevik power in the central and the
northern Russia (Figes 168). However, the Bolshevik party was having a lot of enemies, a lot of
people were disliked them (Johndclare).
One of the Bolshevik enemies was the social revolutionary (Johndclare). They became an enemy to
the Bolsheviks after the election that they both entered (Johndclare). This election, held in 1917, the
Bolsheviks and the social revolutionary, both entered that election (Johndclare). The Bolsheviks
party won 175 seats only, while the social revolutionary won 375 seats (Johndclare). As a result,
Lenin used the Red guards to close the assembly and they killed anyone who resists (Johndclare).
The social revolutionary fought back by attacking the Bolshevik part and because of that the social
revolutionary and the Bolsheviks part became an enemy (Johndclare).
Another enemy that hated the Bolsheviks party was Laver Korniloin (Spartacus). He organized a

11. Kharkov Battle Analysis
The capture of the Kharkov region and the movement of panzer units prompted Marshal Gerorgi
Zhukov to deploy troops near Kharkov in an attempt to defend against further movement of German
forces. With the German Army Group Center and Army Group South so close together, it was as
apparent to the Russians as it was to the Germans that Kursk was going to be attacked. Zhukov,
therefore, argued for a cautious defensive measure towards Kursk; "I do not consider it necessary for
our troops to mount a preventive offensive in the next few days. It will be better if we wear the
enemy out in defensive action." This opinion was shared by Lieutenant General Mikhail Malinin,
Chief of Staff of the Central Front, where he advised the Stavka (Russian high command) to create
strategic reserves and deploy them along the front. These defensive measures were taken where
Zhukov wanted to "meet the German offensive with fire of all weapons from the deeply–echeloned
defences, with powerful blows from the air and counter–blows by operational and strategic
reserves." The response to this, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

attack was repelled and even met with counterattacks that left the XXIII Corps with very little
progress towards the town. Another important feature of the XXIII Corps was "make it a priority to
establish contact with the XLI Panzer Corps east of the Ponyriy and participate in the defense of the

along the Orel–Kursk highway in order to gain the high ground near the rail line. This would

13. Essay on The Great Terror in Russia
Under a backdrop of systematic fear and terror, the Stalinist juggernaut flourished. Stalin's purges,
otherwise known as the "Great Terror", grew from his obsession and desire for sole dictatorship,
marking a period of extreme persecution and oppression in the Soviet Union during the late 1930s.
"The purges did not merely remove potential enemies. They also raised up a new ruling elite which
Stalin had reason to think he would find more dependable." (Historian David Christian, 1994).
While Stalin purged virtually all his potential enemies, he not only profited from removing his long–
term opponents, but in doing so, also caused fear in future ones. This created a party that had
virtually no opposition, a new ruling elite that would be ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
By imprisoning and executing members that opposed his views and were potential threats to his
position, Stalin was able to keep control over the USSR by using fear. Hence, this raised up a new
ruling elite that he found to be more dependable, as no one dared challenge him for fear of their life.
The purges not only impacted those openly opposed to Stalin and party members, but had
devastating effects on ordinary people too, also resulting in the prevention of progress in the Soviet
community, impacting it's future. During Stalin's rule of the country over 20 million people were
sent to labor camps of the Gulag, where nearly half of them died. Fear of losing his power and
dictatorship led Stalin to believe that the educated would be most likely to challenge his authority.
The origins of Stalin's lower class background are rumoured to have left him feeling inferior
towards the educated class, also leading to obsessive determination to remove the threat.
Subsequently, scientists, doctors and engineers, became targets, and were also imprisoned and
killed. As a consequence, the execution of Russia's educated during the Terror, stopped the social
development and growth in the Soviet initiated after the revolution, predominantly in the area of
science and technology. Many people in Russia believed everything Stalin said, with most blinded

The Battle of Stalingrad in 1942 was one of the major turning points in World War Two. It was a
major turning point for a number of reasons, the first being that Germany lost considerable amounts
of manpower and equipment in this battle; losses from which they never recovered. In addition, the
Battle of Stalingrad had a sizeable effect on the German's and the Allies moral that ultimately led to
Nazi Germany's downfall. Moreover, the Battle of Stalingrad stopped the German advance into

crippling the German army. Finally, the Battle ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
They were relying on the capture of the Russian oil fields to supply their army with fuel after their
stockpiles had run out. Their lack of fuel is evident even in this battle as Friedrich Von Paulus, who
was commanding the sixth army's assault on Stalingrad, advance towards the city was very slow due
to the fuel rations and at one point his army was even brought to a complete halt outside Kalach, as
they had completely exhausted their fuel supply. The outcome of the Battle of Stalingrad
exacerbated the Germans shortage of fuel, limiting the vital supply for their planes and tanks.
Without fuel, the German panzer tanks and the mighty German Luftwaffe would be useless, thus
rendering two of Germany's greatest assets worthless. The Germans could not win the war without a
reliable source of fuel. Therefore, the Battle of Stalingrad was a turning point in World War Two
because it stopped the German advance into Russian thus denying them access to the Caucasus oil
wells, exacerbating Germany's fuel crisis and crippling the German army.
In addition, the Battle of Stalingrad also caused great political unrest in Germany, causing many to
question Hitler's leadership. Hitler had the opportunity to withdraw his numerous troops after they
were surrounded by the Russian army. However, against his Generals' advice, he chose to let them

17. Stimulating Patriotism and Promoting Economic Prosperity...
World War II was of great importance to the United States of America. Women also had an
important role in this war. The war effort stimulated patriotism and promoted economic prosperity.
American industry quickly transformed to war production in order to contribute to the nation's
military necessities. When the men left to fight in war, women were left with the men's duties back
on the home front. During World War II, approximately 350,000 women served in the U.S. on the
home front and overseas. The working industry instituted a campaign urging women to do their part
to meet wartime manufacturing quotas. It wasn't common for women at this time to work outside the
home, but this war needed every helping hand possible, woman or man. World War II brought about
the new trend of women earning their own money for themselves instead of always having to rely
on their husband's money. This gave a sense of independence to women of this era. Besides working
on the home front, some women also volunteered for war service and join a various amount of
women's branches in the armed forces; such as the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps, which
eventually became the Women's Army Corp (WAC). The Women's Army Corps was the first time

19. The Battle Of Defending The Red Army Essay
The date is August 15, 1942. 19 year old Alexei Petrov has been on edge for the last two days as
German forces continue to siege the city of Stalingrad. Alexei and 100,000 other soldiers of the Red
Army are tasked with the arduous mission of defending the city at all costs. Joseph Stalin has
ordered a no retreat policy, and made it clear that it is paramount to win the siege of Stalingrad. It
has been a year and a few months since the Germans invaded the Soviet Union and it seems as
though nothing could exacerbate the German advance. Alexei Petrov was born May 28, 1923, to a
family of 2 sisters in St. Petersburg. His father was a shopkeeper and his mother was a secretary. His
family was not wealthy, nor insolvent. A year and a half earlier, Alexei was working in his father's
shop and was his apprentice. He was a tall, muscular young man who was very athletic. Also, he had
pale skin, with light blue eyes, and dark brown hair. Alexei was an erudite young man, with a
promising future. Alexei had morals and was an honest young adult. He had no ambition of joining
the army as he did not condone killing a human being. However, in the summer of 1941, he was
drafted just as most men his age were. He had been fighting on the front lines for almost a year and

One of the classic "what ifs" of the World War II is what if the German invasion of the Soviet Union

optimistic though he could and all he had to do was to "kick in the door down" and the "whole rotten

Barbarossa was considered a complete failure, in many respects the operation was a complete

weather, which was nothing during this unusually cold winter. A lot of their number succumbed to
the cold. At the point when the winter finished, things improved, the defrost that originated from the

27. How Did Operation Barbarossa Invade Russia
1941: Operation Barbarossa
Russia tried to avoid war with Germany at the start of World War II, but this changed on June 22,
1941. Operation Barbarossa joined Russia into the World War II. This was the largest German
military attack, and unfortunately for the Russians, a very well planned operation. Operation
Barbarossa's name originated from the Holy Roman emperor, Fredrick Barbarossa, who set out to
conquer the Holy Land. This name was completely appropriate since the goal of Operation
Barbarossa was to capture the capitol of Russia, Moscow. Operation Barbarossa was an attack by
the Germans to join Russia into the war with Germany.
The plan of Operation Barbarossa started in July of 1940. Hitler decided he wanted to make an
attack on Russia. He saw a threat to his oil supply in Romania who was one of Germany's allies.
Hitler signed the first order of Barbarossa on December 18, 1940. Germany was breaking a non–
aggression pact with Russia on August 23, 1939 with this operation. Although, it wasn't just
Germany who was paranoid; Russia was also suspicious of Germany. Germany's bold idea of
attacking Russia wasn't just to take over Russian territory, but destroy the Red Army (Soviet army)
with large battles and enormous amounts of demolition.
After much strategy and months of preparation, Germany invaded Russia on June 22, 1941.

Bukharin was put on trial, he admitted to nearly everything except, conspiring to plotting the murder
of Lenin. These trials made the Russian people believe that there was a conspiracy going on and that
anyone could be in on it. This made workers suspicious of anyone who did not produce as much as
their fellow workers, this meant that everyone worked hard. This was a brilliant way of getting the
workers to produce more to push crash industrialisation along, if there had not been the conspiracy
theory then Russia would not have acted like a Totalitarian State and therefore not have been as
productive. The theory scared the Russian people from even thinking anti–communist thoughts in
case they were taken away to labor camps. This fear gave total control to Stalin over all areas of
Russia as no one wanted to be sent to the labor camps, so this was a very effective way of
controlling the people of Russia. Another reason for Stalin

31. Stalingrad Turning Point
In August 1942, Hitler's massive Sixth Army marched to the city that was named after Stalin.
During the five–month siege, the Russians fought to hold the city and were determined to hold it at
any cost. The book Stalingrad shows the roles of soldiers on both the Russian and German side, as
well as fighting in inhuman conditions, and some of the experiences from civilians who were
trapped in the battlefield. Antony Beevor interviewed some of the survivors and discovered new
untold stories and facts in a wide range of German and Soviet archives. Some of these included
prisoner interrogations and reports of desertions and executions. As a story of cruelty, courage, and
human suffering, Stalingrad is extraordinary and unforgettable. Many historians argue that the Battle
of Stalingrad was "the turning point" of WW II in Europe. During the course of war, changes in
moods, thoughts, and impressions of the Germans, Romanians and Soviets were easily depicted. It
documents the impact on the psychological changes of the war but justifies how it changed the
history of modern warfare as we know it. Stalingrad is a story of the well–known Battle of
Stalingrad that took place on the Eastern Front of Europe during World War II, which is written by

33. The Situation Between Latvia And Russia During World War...
The situation between Latvia, Germany, and Russia during World War II was complex and that
complexity left many Latvians vulnerable to Stalinist repression when the Soviet government first
ordered deportations in 1941 and when deportations began again when Soviet occupation of Latvia
returned in the October of 1944. With the signing of the German–Soviet Non–aggression Pact in
1939, the Soviet Union gained a sphere of influence over west Poland and the Baltic States. On June
16th, 1940, the Latvian government received an ultimatum from the Soviet government. The Soviet
government instructed them to form a new government that would comply with the implementation
a Soviet–Latvian mutual assistance pact and to allow the Red Army unrestricted entry and
movement throughout Latvia or have it done so by force. The following day, June 17th, the Red
Army entered Riga, the capital and the Latvian government was dissolved.
The Soviet government became concerned with resistance to their occupation of Latvia during the
spring of 1941. In May 1941, Beria agreed with Stalin on a draft decree of the Council of People 's
Commissars and the Communist Party and the Communist Party Central Committee "On taking

The Soviet–Afghan War spanned nine years from late 1979 to early 1989 encompassing the terms of

War" it too was a war of technology and power against a hardened and adaptive guerilla militia
know as the Mujahedeen (people doing jihad) that lead to an undetermined victor and a withdrawal
of Soviet forces.
In 1978 the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan was a poor, agrarian and socialist government.

That same year the Saur Revolution ended the rein of the ruling monarchy and transformed
Afghanistan into a socialist–based democratic republic and friendship treaties were signed with both
the United States and Russia. In early 1979 middle–east unrest reached a culminating point and a
key U.S. ally, the Shah of Iran, was ousted by the Islamic Revolution and the U.S. Ambassador to
Afghanistan was kidnapped and subsequently killed in a raid carried out by Afghan police and
Soviet advisors, this led to a breakdown in U.S. – Afghan relations.
With radical Soviet–influenced changes to the current Islamic culture encompassing land ownership,
marital law, education and social rights by the new Afghan regime tens of thousands of people in
traditional Islamic society fled Afghanistan or were imprisoned and executed by the government.
This began an Afghan civil war and the rise of the Mujahedeen in 1979. The United States took this
as an opportunity to coerce the Soviet Union into war by covertly arming the Mujahedeen in order
to fight the communist–backed government. With the Afghan government losing credibility with the
Afghan people and control of the Afghan military by the desertion of soldiers willing to join the
Mujahedeen they called on their Soviet allies to provide military assistance. During the summer of

took the official name of "Workers' and Peasants' Red Army" (It was only renamed "Soviet Army" in

attacking the new Communist regime. During WW I, a huge Imperial Russian army (estimated at 19
million soldiers and officers representing over 15% of the Russian population) had been fighting
Germany on the Eastern front with little success. Under–equipped, poorly trained and supervised, it
had lost close to 9 million soldiers through desertions, deaths, wounded or prisoners. In July 1918,

These squads had instructions to shoot retreating soldiers or possible deserters (note that such
squads had been in history already deployed within the Roman Empire conquests as well as in
Napoleonic battles). To ensure political compliance with Bolsheviks principles, each battalion had at
his helm a Political Commissar in charge not only of educating the troops, but also holding the
responsibility to counter–sign all decisions from high level officers. By October 1919, all three
White armies (vastly outnumbered by the Red army troops) had been defeated. One could say that
Trotsky saved the Soviet regime from falling into oblivion. Another primary element of the Red
army dominance is most probably the effective use of well crafted posters. These did impress by and
large naive illiterate peasants–soldiers trusting the new Bolshevik regime would bring them a better

Later that night the Revolution began. The primary objectives were to take command of railway
stations, post offices, telephone centres, banks, bridges, and the Engineers' Palace (the military
headquarters). This objective continued into the morning of the 7th, and on the evening of the 7th
November 1917 Trotsky and his Red Guard stormed the Winter Palace and arrested the ministers of
the provisional government. On the 8th November, an announcement was made that the provisional

Again we see that even the leader of Nazi Germany would underestimate the Soviets.
Another factor was that the use of German Allied troops to support critical positions within the east,
these reserves were used as the German's didn't have enough troops to support their war effort and
had essentially spread themselves too thin. Due to this it enabled the Soviet forces to break through
the German lines during the winter of 1942 and destroy the 6th and 4th Panzer Armies. This was a
loss that the Germans could not fully recover from. Relating this back to the question, the loss of
two major divisions would impact on both the morality of the Soviet and German forces, it would
also stop the Germans from advancing in that route.
A second point to consider is the lack of Air superiority within the German forces, due to the fact
that the Luftwaffe did not have long range bomber, this stopped them from attacking the Russian
sources of production and as a result we can see that the Soviets were able to out produce the
Germans in weapons. The fact that the Germans could not keep up with the Russian production

The Russo–Finnish War, or Winter War, began on 30 November 1939 when the Soviet Union
invaded Finland. The objectives of the Red Army were simply, conquer and subjugate all of Finland
and re–establish the borders that existed prior to the First World War. The Soviet Union held the
advantage in manpower, equipment, and resources, but the Finnish Army inflicted casualties on the
Red Army that far exceeded their own. Not a single Red Army unit reached its initial objectives and
Stalin was forced to come to the negotiation table and make a peace that left Finland as a sovereign
state. The Finnish military was successful because the Red Army lacked competent leadership,
didn't have the proper equipment to fight in subzero temperatures, and the Finnish Army was able to
adapt to a changing environment and use their smaller numbers to their advantage. The gaping holes
in Soviet military capabilities helped fuel Hitler's willingness to initiate Operation Barbarossa.
Additionally, by invading Finland the Soviet Union turned a disinterested and essentially neutral
into an enemy that had the capabilities to strike into the heart of Russia. The winter of 1939–1940
was abnormally cold, the temperature rose above freezing only ten times during the entire campaign.

however the city never fell. At the same time, one army group reached the outskirts of Moscow but

army defended itself from invasion by the German army. This battle essentially stopped Germany's
determined advance into Russian territory. This marked a huge turning point in the war for the
Allies. It was a very important war because it crippled the German offensive as well as destroying
much of its army. The German army lead the offensive into Stalingrad using the German 6th Army

Still, from Berlin, Hitler ordered the army to continue the fight and promised General Paulus that
reinforcements would be sent. The Russian army would not give up. They trapped the weakened
Germans in the city. In January, General Paulus sent a message to Hitler requesting permission to
surrender. He knew any victory was impossible and the only thing certain for the Germans was
death. Hilter denied his requesting saying that the German army had to stand firm until the last man.
Hitler's pride was one of the biggest reasons the German's lost to Russia. Had he let his men retreat,
regroup and fortify themselves they would have stood a much better chance. Hitler was operating
solely on an out of control ego at that point and not rational thought. On January 31, General Paulus
surrendered to the Russian army. Hitler was furious with Paulus. The German's defeat at the battle of
Stalingrad was the beginning of the end of the Nazi regime. Hitler's control over his army and his
army's confidence in him was extremely weakened. All over Germany morale had sunk. During this
time, Hitler made many false promises to the people of Germany. One being that they would never
be driven out of Stalingrad. After their complete and utter annihilation at Stalingrad, the German

62. Hitler 's Second World War Essay
On the morning of June 22, 1941, three German army groups, consisting of over three million
soldiers, 150 divisions, and three thousand tanks, attacked across the frontier into Soviet territory.
The front covered nearly two thousand miles and took the Red Army almost entirely by surprise.
Adolf Hitler titled the invasion "Operation Barbarossa", and it was the critical turning point of the
Second World War. The goal of Hitler's Directive Number 21 was to destroy the Red Army's fighting
capabilities in the West, create a buffer that denied the Russian Airforce the ability to attack territory
of the German Reich, establish a general line along the Volga River to Archangel, and ultimately
destroy the Soviet Union. For many people it's not surprising that Operation Barbarossa failed and
forced Germany to fight a two front war against a coalition possessing superior resources, leading to
the eventual defeat and destruction of Hitler's "Third Reich".
The "Third Reich" wasn't the first Empire to be defeated in the vastness of Russia, barely 120 years
earlier, Napoleon suffered a staggering defeat that led to the dissolution of the First French Empire.
With what history has taught us it seems like common knowledge that a land invasion of Russia is
doomed to failure, but in 1941 it wasn't too farfetched of an idea to think that the German Army
would be able to defeat Russia. Hitler felt that Operation Barbarossa would be successful and

Stalin authorized the covert operation but did not interfere with the details. Part of the reason for its
success was due to this unified command. Stalin, in contrast to Hitler during this period, listened to
reasoned arguments. He surrounded himself with a small group of competent advisors, listened to
the advice of field commanders and usually accepted it. The Red Army strategically out maneuvered
and virtually annihilated the Axis force during the operation but they were also helped by excessive
German ambitions and in cohesive military strategies.
Hitler concentrated too much of his military strength on Stalingrad. The capture and destruction of
the city was of more symbolic value than strategic advantage. The military high command was in
disarray due to a combination of disagreements and dismissals. Hitler frequently interfered in
detailed operations overriding the decisions of his military commanders. This caused confusion
throughout the chain of command and resulted in a distinct lack of unity. One consequence was the
existence a long and vulnerable flank along the Don River manned by troops from Hungary, Italy
and Romania. These troops lacked motivation and were left ill equipped, making the task of the Red
Army an easier one. It is interesting to speculate that had Hitler kept out of military planning, events

66. Why the Bolsheviks Won the Civil War Essay
Why the Bolsheviks Won the Civil War The Russian Civil War raged from 1918 until the start of
1921. During this time the Bolsheviks faced massive opposition to their rule in the form of the
White Armies, led by the former officers of the Tsarist state, and also from intervention by the forces
of foreign countries. The Bolsheviks were surrounded, and often outnumbered by their opponents,
and had no experienced military commanders. At times, their situation seemed hopeless. Yet, by the
start of 1921, the Bolsheviks had defeated their enemies and gained a complete victory. The
establishment of Communism in Russia went ahead unchallenged.

No one person was in charge of the White forces, whereas the Bolsheviks had Lenin, the Whites had
several rival people, such as Yudenich, Wrangel, Kolchak and Denikin vying for control. They were
all ambitious men and each was determined to take control of Russia for himself. As a result, there
was virtually no co–operation between the various White Armies. They had to move their forces and
supplies over huge distances, making it difficult to maintain effective control. The lack of effective
railways was an added complication to the existing communication difficulties between them.
Whereas the Whites were disunited, the Bolsheviks maintained absolute unity through the Terror. It
was this skilled leadership of the Red Army, paired with the divided leadership of the White Forces
that was a key factor in the Bolsheviks winning the Civil War.
A second reason why the Bolsheviks won the Civil War was geography. In 1918, the start of the
Civil War, the Bolsheviks had the advantage of holding a central position – between Petrograd and
Moscow (including their factories.) Most of Russia's railways were in this area, making
communication between various battlefronts much easier, Trotsky was able to move troops and
supplies rapidly to areas under attack. The Red Armies were in possession

68. Analysis Of Stalingrad
THE BATTLE OF STALINGRAD
In August 1942, Hitler's giant Sixth Army marched to the city that was named after Stalin. During
the five–month siege, the Russians fought to hold the city and were determined to hold it at any cost.
The book Stalingrad shows the roles of soldiers on both the Russian and German side, as well as
fighting in inhuman conditions, and some of the experiences from civilians who were trapped in the
battlefield. Written by historian and author Antony Beevor, Beevor interviewed some of the
survivors and discovered new untold stories and facts in a wide range of German and Soviet
archives. Some of these included prisoner interrogations and reports of desertions and executions.
Many historians argue that the Battle of Stalingrad was "the turning point" of WW II in Europe.
During the course of the war, changes in moods, thoughts, and impressions of the Germans,
Romanians, and Soviets were easily depicted. It documents the impact on the psychological changes
of the war but justifies how it changed the history of modern warfare as we know it. As a story of
cruelty, courage, and human suffering, Stalingrad is extraordinary and unforgettable.
Throughout the war Hitler and Stalin made many mistakes and errors, Hitler's ego was dangerous to
the Germans and his own political power. Hitler's biggest mistake was to stop listening to his
generals who were giving him advice based on experience and impose his own will on the army .

Soon the Fatherland had recovered from its deep economic slump, and before long the massive rise
in nationalism led Germany to war. By 1942 Hitler seemed indestructible and the world seemed at
his mercy. While Germany's power grew in the West, the Eastern giant of Russia was awaking as
well. It would be unavoidable for the two to collide in war. Like Germany, the Soviet Union had
established a new nation and created a large military power in the aftermath of World War I. Czarist
Russia had converted into the immense Soviet Union and transformed into a world superpower also
in the wake of the Great War. For centuries before the war the man with complete control over the
Motherland would always be the Czar. But the total power of Russia's monarchy would eventually
lead to its demise. During World War I, Czarist Russia went through famine and economic
breakdown. The demoralized Russian army suffered several severe military losses and many of the
troops deserted the front lines. Discontentment with the monarchy and its policy of continuing the
war effort rose, and soon the present Czar was forced to step down. Soon after that, a revolution
began and the Party of the Soviet Union, led by Vladimir Lenin, took political control. Yet there

72. Blitzkrieg Fail German Germany On Nazi Germany
When Blitzkrieg Fails Nazi Germany on the Eastern Front
Throughout of the duration of World War Two, Germany's offensive tactic of Blitzkrieg served her
well; vital in the invasions of France, Poland, Belgium, and numerous other attacks. Yet, when
Germany faced trouble in the Battle of Britain and turned to the Eastern front instead, this tank,
infantry, and Luftwaffe method proved unsuccessful. Operation Barbarossa first began with little
resistance, as Germany swept quickly into the Soviet Union. It is not until winter set in that
Blitzkrieg began to fail, and the weak remainder of fighting on the Eastern front following the rough
winter finally showed Germany's weakness as their iconic tactic proved to be beatable.
Operation Barbarossa began on the morning of June 22nd 1941, when Germany attacked on the
front stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea, first breaking the Nazi–Soviet Non–Aggression
Pact. Experts at their Blitzkrieg tactic by then, Germany pushed 50 miles into the Soviet Union in
the first day. Stalin, left with a weakened Red Army after purging past generals who would have
proved critical in this attack, enforced the scorched earth policy, in which his people burnt
everything left behind when they retreated; leaving nothing for the Germans. At that time, Hitler
anticipated only an 8–week war. This seemed to be a reasonable idea initially, as they took Kiev, laid
siege to Leningrad and key cities on the way to Crimea all before winter. They had taken

76. 1945-1940: The Battle Of Stalingrad
The Battle of Berlin, which lasted from April 16, 1945 to May 2,1945, marked the final major battle
of World War II in Europe. There was virtually no hope for the city of Berlin defenders against the
superior and dominant Red Army, but nevertheless, the city defenders put up a fierce and substantial
battle, turning it into the second most ferocious battle following the Battle of Stalingrad. The heavy
resistance was fueled with the Nazi propaganda regarding the Soviets. After the unsuccessful
Ardennes Offensive in late 1944 and early 1945, which was a last–ditch effort, the Nazis were left
with insufficient forces to defend its border against the Western Allies and the Soviet forces. Hoping
that a decisive victory would impel the Western Allies into peace negotiations and enable him to

his generals, Zhukov and Ivan Konev, to race to Berlin. According to several speculations, Stalin
desired to capture Berlin before the rest of the Allies so that the nuclear secrets could be

Instructor: SMSgt Steve Kramer Joseph Stalin: Unethical Visionary Leader
Introduction:
Visionary Leader Throughout World War 2, several events highlighted Joseph Stalin's actions and
identified him as a visionary leader who failed to successfully implement that vision with his
subordinates due to his own ineffective use of key team building, diversity and leadership concepts.
Ethical Leader Joseph Stalin's decisions and actions during World War 2 proved that he was an
unethical leader who fell into numerous ethical traps and lead through fear and positional power
rather than inspiration, motivation, flexibility and integrity. Although there are numerous examples
of Stalin's behavior that could be referenced, three specific events have been selected to highlight his
unethical leadership style. The first of these events was Stalin's failure to mobilize the Red Army
prior to the German invasion in the spring of 1941. Prior to 1941, Stalin had allied his nation with
Germany in the hopes of gaining crucial territories through mutual treaties. According to McNeal
(1988), Stalin continued to build up his military at a staggering pace. In 1941, the Soviet military
reached its pinnacle of 4.2 million personnel and more tanks than the rest of the world combined!
