I think that it is impossible to say that the Red Army was a glorious force of liberation in Europe... what the Soviet army did to Berlin was perhaps more extreme than the rape of Nanking several years previously.
Well, it's actually not a good example. While Russians could have behaved in a more... civilised way (English also suffered greatly, not as incredibly greatly as Russians though, but they maintained discipline. I don't count Americans, because their civilians did not suffer at all. Also Poles who fought on all fronts were not raping etc.) I actually understand them (a little). Germans were diong terrible things to the Russians, so Russians did terrible things to them.
It is also clear that noone wanted to "liberate" Germany, but to capture it. Russians though tend to name their all conquest a "liberation". It's a very tricky, but unfortunately cannot be considered "true liberation".
Just imagine, spending three years being tortured and starved in a concentration camp, and then liberated for a day, only to be put into jail for a further twenty years for something that you had no reasonable control over.
Imagine also this - you fought with Germans in 1939. You retreated then to the east of your country and was captured by Soviets. Then you were sent to Siberia. After German attack on Russia you suddenly became Russian "ally". They offered you to join Soviet controlled "Polish Army", but you refused. You followed one of your generals to Iran and then to Palestine. Then you fought all the way through Africa and Italy. After the war your country was encouraging you to return. You returned, and they put you into prison. Released after few years, but for many years you were oficially called "a traitor". That's also disgusting.
As for the Warsaw uprising, I think (and this is only what I gleaned from about 10 different sources, both Russian and Western) that initially, the Soviet Union wanted the uprising to succeed, because it would be a blow to the German occupation of the city, and the Red Army would find it easier to capture it.
Initially - they did completely nothing. They also were actively preventing western Allies from helping. So it is not true.
However, material support was too difficult to provide, as the Germans had plenty of army divisions between the front and Warsaw.
They were ~10 km from them. Russians had an advantage. There was no plenty divisions - moreover - it was clear the Germans will bring reinforcements and crush uprising if Russians do nothing. And that's what they did - both sides. Russians did nothing, Germans crushed the uprising.
Possibly, the Soviet Union could have succeeded in helping the Warsaw Uprising
Russians had no interest in helping the uprising. From their point of view two their enemies started to kill themselves. Would you do something different than sit, bring popcorn and watch?
I doubt that it was possible to do an airlift or bombing run without half the planes being destroyed by German anti-aircraft fire.
112 out of 637 Polish and 133 out of 735 British and South African airman were shot down (about 12% of the 296 planes taking part in the operations were lost). Now imagine that you don't have to fly through half of Europe to do it. You just take off from Soviet airport, fly to Warsaw, drop supplies and return to Soviet airport.
So it's not an excuse.
What you are explaining is Polish version of events.
You did not write anything about access to Soviet airdrops, arresting of the AK soldiers and disarming those who were going to Warsaw to help the fighting Poles. I am trying to present facts (arrests, lack of access to airports, disarming etc.).
It is absolutely clear that we have different versions, but someone's has to be right, and someone's has to be wrong. I believe I presented few interesting facts that shows us the Soviets wanted uprising to fall, that's it.
If you are unhappy that site intended to commemorate Soviet veterans, doesn't fully reflect Polish victimhood, write your own articles.
I am not unhappy of commemoriating Sovet veterans, I am only pointing few innacuracies in this presentation. They surely deserve memory and you should be proud of their actions for your motherland, but we should all remember the truth, not "nice and sweet articles which glorify things not actually worth gloryfying". I am sure this presentation is excellent in presenting defense of the Soviet Union, but not all things presented there have to be perfect. You are simply generalising. It is clear that this presentation was made to present Red Army and Soviet Union in the good light. Our job is to remind that in fact it was not so good light.
We write our own articles, and you are free to point inaccuracies in them. All you have to do is write them and explin why do you think so. I did it.
You would, and it will be difficult for you to explain how Russians having 7:1 advantage, suffered defeat under Radzymin. And after that, during all August, desperately tried to secure Magnushev bridgehead (BTW, driving many German forces away from Warsaw). Something was wrong with their "advantage".
I'll try to find something as soon as I can, right now I really have no access to any data. Keep in mind that I am not saying that you are surely wrong.
The site doesn't contain propaganda, it gives factual information without interpretations. It is commemoration of veterans who fought to drive Nazis off from USSR and Eastern Europe, including Poland. If you feel that people who fought Nazis on your soil don't deserve to be respected and that they are described as "too good" in this commemoration, you'd better read special Polish sites which are "free from Soviet propaganda".
It was made by Russians and is presenting pure Russian point of view. I do not blame them for this. But after the war we had an occasion to learn "Russian view on history". How do you think World War II looked in comunistic books?
No word about Ribbentropp-Mołotov, 17 IX 1939, Katyń Massacre etc. Entire history was falsified only to look "better". Russians had a purpose to force others to believe in "liberation", "good Red Army" and forget about such things as cooperation with Nazis in 1939 (also military cooperation and after that - a joint Nazi-Soviet parade in Brześć
and arresting AK soldiers. World War Two (or Great Patriotic War as they call it) was an amazing struggle for them, won by them. It is natural they consider them nearly as saints and great heroes and can't understand why someone other may don't share their opinion.
Not so long ago I asked a Russian a one thing - imagine a situaton:
You see a woman being attacked by a man in a dark alley. You of course rush to help her. ou knock down a thief and grab a money he stole. What do you do after that?
If you return her money and help her reach home, then you are a hero.
But how could we call you if you punch her in the face and run away with her money? That's definatly not a heroic action.
The guy who returned her money is American, British, Pole etc. They truly liberated other nations. The guy who punched her in the face and run away with money is a Russian. That's what they did with half of Europe.
Half of Europe have no reason to consider Red Army "heroes" - Russians have and only them. The main problem is that they cannot realise this and want to convince all others to their point of view. Right now we can sit down and calmly look at the history and decide what are the facts - what all those people did and what they did not. And facts tells us that in Uprising's case they Russians did not do anything to help it and wanted it to fall.
Do not get it personal - I'm not your enemy.
But, as far as I see, you seem to run away from few things I wrote here.
The most significant is the fact that when uprising started suddenly all soviet aircraft disappeared from the sky above Warsaw. The practically non-existant Luftwaffe was totally safe and could bomb Warsaw with its remaining Ju-87. Add to this closing soviet airfields for allied planes.
