In Europe, World War II compressed into a three-week time frame with a series of huge events. On April 16, 1945, the Soviet Red Army began its final attack on Berlin, and five days later occupied the neural center of the supposed Millennium Empire.
By the time the hammer and sickle flew over the destroyed city, Nazi leaders, including Hitler, opened up good efforts in Führerbunker, part of a reinforced underground complex that formed two stages (1936 and 1944), was a huge, strong, strong carnival. Here, reality finally shatters the top Nazi denialism of the Nazis, rooted in the incredible failure. Hitler committed suicide on April 30.
Fascist compatriots Cardillo Benito Mussolini is not very lucky. On April 28, he was caught by Italian guerrillas while trying to escape to Switzerland and publicly executed. His body was then taken to Milan, where anti-fascists hung it from a metal beam above Piazza Loreto, one of the city’s main squares.
On May 2, German troops surrendered in Italy. On May 7, at the headquarters of General Eisenhower in the United States, in Rems, northern France, German General Alfred Jodl signed the unconditional surrender of all German troops. At the insistence of the Soviet Union, the second ceremony was signed at the Soviet headquarters in Berlin on May 9, this time Marshal Wilhelm Keitel.
These two events explain the obvious anomalies of two separate victory marks: European Victory (VE Day), observed on May 8 in Western Europe and Victory Day, which is a public holiday in the Russian Federation on May 9.

In France where I live, it marks a day of public holidays that retain some quiet dignity. Under the Nazi occupation, no part of France avoided barbarism, whether in the form of leisure, daily humiliation or periodic eruptions of extreme violence. You can feel the echoes of the past in the commemorations that are still being held nationwide: the formal occasions are the flag bearers wearing medals, the local big Wig, the dwindling congregation of aging citizens, and perhaps a group of flowers children mobilized by historic teachers. A wreath of tricolor flowers is laid on the town’s war memorial. The mayor read aloud the speech sent from faraway Paris. Marseille, the exciting triumphal French anthem, whose revolutionary origins are often overlooked today, are conveyed through public broadcast systems.
Then everyone is repairing SalledesFêtescommunity halls in every town and village for friendship surface refreshments.
Such commemorations—the plain local gatherings are filled with a lofty respect for the pain of the past—are sure to diminish with time and the passing of those who have died, or to be killed or direct shadows in the emergency of global wars. I think it’s better than the alternative: intentional modification and rescheduling of World War II; it transforms it into some kind of template for the Western government of the 21st century, seemingly dissatisfied with everything in military matters.
This continued reshaping is evident in a simple statement about the character of war. We are guaranteed politically by Banks and the captured media, a “war of justice”, a “democracy war”, a huge marshaling of all these “values” that mark Western Europe and the United States as outstanding moral forces in the world. Therefore, it deserves our passionate, non-critical embrace; its inspiring qualities must be regained into the suppression of the present enemy.
For current European leaders, from the gray standout of Friedrich Merz, to the new minister of the noble queen of the EU, Ursula von der Leyen, there is no doubt who constitutes the continent’s number one enemy. No one is more threatening than Vladimir Putin. There is no greater threat to world peace or human spirit, and beyond the scope of Ukrainian conflict. On May 9, Von der Leyen was placed in Von der Leyen on May 9 as Russia commemorates its 80th Victory Day. “Justice in Ukraine is beginning to take shape.”
Russia’s exclusion
Given this way of thinking, excluding Russia from the main 80th anniversary event in Berlin has never penetrated the minds of institutions or caused embarrassing problems like a comfortable media bubble. Russia: The successor state of the Soviet Union, whose Red Army won the war undisputedly, was the blood sacrifice of 27 million people (soldiers and cruel, hungry and massacre civilians) that would always constitute the behemoth, which is human estimate beyond our understanding. All of these spray guns disappeared.

Just as truth has the habit of surfaced in times of inconvenience, so is the horror of history, the cynical manipulation of the past, and appeals to the language of reality.
On the morning of May 8, mainstream French television channels (such as their peers throughout Europe) were busy working for the war (sorry, “Victory Memorial”). Among the guests invited by BFMTV were Lyon’s lawyer Alain Jakubowicz, who served as president of the French major anti-racist organization Licra (International Anti-racist and Anti-Semitism Coalition).
On the camera, Jakubowicz seized the opportunity to describe La France Insoumise as the Left Legion of the French Prime Minister as the “fascist movement” and compared its leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon to a propaganda campaign by Hitler. Almost as shocking as a complete slander, it was the silence of all those present saying hello. Panic and disclaimer are set later only. Melenton has begun legal proceedings.
Back in the real world, the actual life, breath fascists and travelers are already suggesting that they enter the Victory Day celebration. In London, a Ukrainian army was added to the main British military parade, causing criticism of the awareness of Ukraine’s vague records and open fascist elements in Ukraine during World War II, including the currently infamous Azov Brigade.
In Paris, the C9M’s neo-Nazis were founded in 1994, preparing to show themselves every year with military muscles, scheduled for May 10. All of this is in Paris after 80 years of victory in Europe.

Back in London, the Metropolitan Police paid tribute to the present moment at that moment, declaring that most of the capital’s scope was against the anti-Zionist Jewish protesters mobilized on May 9 to support Palestine. Ban Jews from entering specific areas of the large Western capital: Who would have thought 80 years ago?
Therefore, the end of the phase of the elimination of Palestine and Gaza: The final solution: Redux, which is televised, is huge in our eyes, and must always be admitted, never give the day light, those who have the ability to end it immediately.
Somehow, the anti-Zionist Israeli Alon Mizrahi, a firm, eloquent supporter of the Palestinian people, found words that express emotions that were shared by millions of people on the planet. In a May 8 comment, he wrote: “Don’t rain in any man’s parade, but if two million breathing humans can be marked as destruction and starved to death at the center of human concern, with continued international support, then World War II may have ended, but Nazism has not been defeated.”
