"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
-Mohandas Ghandi
Not only did National Socialism in Germany protect the average person from greedy politicians and swindlers, it also protected Nature, the environment and animals. In 1935 the NSDAP passed the Reich Nature Protection Act which set aside huge nature areas for protection from development, established the first of their kind air pollution laws and
promoted sustainable forestry among other important environmental laws. Hitler himself was even a vegetarian and refused to drink in public.
On November 24, 1933 the National Socialists passed the Reich Animal Protection Act which outlawed vivisection, (performing cutting and surgery on a live and awake animal) and kosher slaughter, (cutting the throat of an animal and letting it bleed to death) thus saving millions of animals from unnecessary pain and torture. Göring also banned commercial animal trapping, imposed severe restrictions on hunting, and regulated the shoeing of horses. He imposed regulations even on the boiling of lobsters and crabs.
In addition to all the good the National Socialists did mentioned above, we should never forget the advancements they brought about in the war on cancer and for preventative medicine to help guarantee a healthy people.They were pioneers in protecting workers from the dangers of asbestos and educating people to the dangers of tobacco. The National Socialist Office of Public Health arranged free cancer screenings for everyone, rich and poor. This was a big step in preventative health care and saved thousands of lives, it would also save thousands of lives if it was done today.
TIk-Tok, I respect your opinion but simply disagree.
No wonder they kicked you. That isn't disagreement, that's willful ignorance to the truth. If you can't back your position or at least read a rebuttal, then don't get involved in these threads and don't whine about being kicked out of a group for this specific reason.
Unbelievable. Don't waste my time.
Tik, we've had these discussions for years. I joined a clan for it being a scenario/mapmaking clan, not a political one. I will complain for making my viewpoint known (a viewpoint you and EVERYONE has known for years) and now I am kicked. I didn't waste your time by not responding because there is no point in it- we have reached the climax of this debate months ago. I will not change your opinio, you will not change mine. I have never forced my opinion on you and would have expected you not to force it upon me. The only reason I received for being kicked out of the clan was for not being politically correct according to your or other members viewpoints. I joined because I knew you, Aetius, and Pyrrhus as people I played scenario games with in WWII and Legacy of Rome. I joined because I thought I was being apart of a group of friends whom I could then discuss openly my views with. I have said these same views months ago with no problem. So yes, I will "whine" about the hypocrisy I am seeing from a group I thought was against political correctness. I will complain about one day being a part of a clan playing games on at war and the second I make a comment on forums I am immediately crucified. Any rebuttal I would offer for your point of view would immediately be called zionist or western propaganda. There Is no point in me researching my opinion when the end result will be no change in the status quo. I understand you're passionate, but never would have thought you or Aetius to excommunicate me for a single viewpoint.

Everyone is living a myth and it's important to know what yours is. It could be a tragedy- and maybe you don't want it to be.
Your Nazi leaders sent millions to die. By the end of the war, Hitler was ordering German troops to fight till the death. By the time Germany was invaded, he was sending young boys and old men to their deaths.
And those that surrendered died in Soviet gulags or were purposely starved to death in US camps. The 'to the death' order was made because they knew these men would die regardless.
Hitler would have been remembered as a German hero had he died before 1938,
No he wouldn't. He was vilified before he even came to power. Here's a nice quote from 1933 while Hitler was just the head of a democratic German coalition and prior to ANY Jewish supression:
Quote:
The war against Germany will be waged by all Jewish communities, conferences, congresses... by every individual Jew. Thereby the war against Germany will ideologically enliven and promote our interests, which require that Germany be wholly destroyed.
The danger for us Jews lies in the whole German people, in Germany as a whole as well as individually. it must be rendered harmless for all time.... In this war we Jews have to participate, and this with all the strength and might we have at our disposal.

but I'm not going to support a guy that decided to take the easy way out instead of fightign for the nation he ordered others to fight for.
Irrelevant to the convo. Not that you care or are even willing to debate the issue you little rat coward. Go nibble on some cheese.
Died in Soviet Gulags? Yes, Soviets treated POW's horribly. But I disagree with you on the point that German POWs were treated brutally by Americans.German armies repeatedly tried to surrender to the US than the Soviets for this very reason.
All national leaders are vilified by others and I think Hitler would ave been remembered as a person who took power (democratically) and while his policies were disadvantageous for some, he did brign Germany out of hyperinflation and make it strong again.
WHy am I against nazism? Because it's prime architect Adolf Hitler was a coward who shot himself instead of fightign to the death like he ordered his troops to do. But yes, I am a coward for not conforming to your ideals. My bad, didn't mean to hurt the Cult of Tik-Tok.

I don't have an 'opinion' or a 'belief'. I follow data. I seek evidence. I research. You do not. That's the point.

Yeah, to their own demise which Hitler warned them about. No one could have predicted how brutal Dwight "The Dutch Jew" Eisenhower would be to the German prisoners. They killed between 600,000 to a million German POW's. They starved them in camps. German POW's were killed to ensure the occupation of Germany, which remains to this very day, would succeed.
All national leaders are vilified by others and I think Hitler would ave been remembered as a person who took power (democratically) and while his policies were disadvantageous for some, he did brign Germany out of hyperinflation and make it strong again.
I just posted a 1933 source where a Jewish group sought to annihilate Germany and make it harmless for eternity. This was straight after Hitler was elected and leader of a coalition. Do you even read what I type?
WHy am I against nazism? Because it's prime architect Adolf Hitler was a coward who shot himself instead of fightign to the death like he ordered his troops to do.
Because his corpse would have been used to demoralize. He was an old man with Parkinson's disease. He couldn't lift a teacup, let alone a rifle. Better to have the bodies burned, than to let the Soviets drag his corpse through the streets.
Besides, how does that have anything to do with National Socialism as a political ideal? Nothing. You oppose it for one reason. The Nose Knows...
1.) The war against Poland was caused by Polish aggression, hatred against Germans, and battles + skirmishes on/near the border, in addition to the German land, continuously being stolen by the Poles in the country.
Why, yes. We shall forget about the German persecution of Poles, once they occupied the Second Republic. Blame the enemy for everything. Brilliant propaganda.
Hitler believed the Soviets were planning to invade, and much controversy is over exactly when and if, but it's accepted by many that Stalin had made plans to invade Nazi Germany just three weeks after the Reich initiated Operation Barbarossa.
...this is mainly Germany's fault. Before WWII, the Second Polish Republic was being extremely stubborn. Stalin would never, ever have convinced the Polish authorities to let them invade Germany from Polish soil. In fact, Polish authorities were seriously considering a defense pact with Germany against the Soviets (although that idea got thrown out in the end). If Stalin tried to just invade through Poland, well... let's just say that the Polish military was solid, compared to the Soviet one. Especially so, since Britain/France would be backing Poland's defenses like the last time.
The only reason why a Soviet invasion of Germany was even thinkable was because the Second Republic didn't exist as a buffer anymore.
The UK getting involved in the war was just Churchill being a stupid bastard and waged war on Nazi Germany for no legitimate reason, specifically because the UK had nothing to do with Germany's affairs with Poland and the Union. The Nazis gave the United Kingdom many opportunities to reach a treaty and terms of surrender with nothing to lose on the English side, but no avail was ever reached.
Defense of Poland is a solid casus belli. In fact, even if it wasn't, Britain had an excellent reason to declare war on Germany starting March 14, 1939. Threats must be contained. Why do you think coalitions always form against strong nations?
Must we not forget that Churchill was an insane war monger, who made plans to invade the Soviet Union post-WWII in "Operation Unthinkable," who was then kicked out of office a little while after for unrelated purposes, dragged the United States into the war that they could have easily backed down out of, and in part, with Stalin, created the bloodiest conflict in recorded human history.
It's the same defense of Poland. The United Kingdom declared war on Germany with the intention of securing an independent Polish government much like the Second Republic. A Soviet puppet state was not, to Churchill, an acceptable state of affairs in Poland.
TIk-Tok, I respect your opinion but simply disagree.

kay, cause Nazis invading other countries causing WWII was also evil zionist propaganda.
Look at that, I got kicked out of a clan I joined for mapmaking due to having a different opinion than others. For a group that complains about how your views are suppressed in the worlds, you seem to always be quick to suppress those of a dissenting point of view.

Tired of this bullshit. Peace Time Nazi Germany had very low levels of executions compared to the rest of the world. Around 700, all of whom were the very worst violent insurrectionists who were committed to opposing the State and had in the past initiated violent revolutions in Berlin and Strassburg. The National Socialists had fought these people for over a decade in the streets.
Wartime is different. And the war itself was fermented and initiated by the West. The Eastern theatre was also inevitable, the Soviets were planning to invade. The Centre sought independent and the East and West crushed it.
Kidnapping, torturing, killing people in the basements, pulling nails, sticking sticks in their anus, yeah really humane nazis were during 30s in Germany.
And then they start WWII where 80 million people dies. The humanity...

I don't really have much oversight in The Reich as I'm barely on AtWar but The Reich is basically a place for Map Makers and Ethnic Nationalists leaning towards Eurocentrism. Personally I don't mind opposing views but you must have said some startling shit for them to kick you. They're usually quite lenient to a degree.
If you're saying 'nazis killed millions' then you clearly didn't learn anything.

So? There was a Jew that one the Iron Cross (The highest honor), so why wouldn't kentucky be in?
There was also a Half-Jew that attained the highest rank of an officer in the Wehrmacht, General Field Marshal.
So you ignore your ideology, you propagade something just to ignore it? First you attack jews and then you promote them. In other words you are not different than patients in the mental hospitals changing mood 10 times a day.
So you say nazis have mental problems, cognitive personality disorder.

Hitler invaded Poland knowing full well ti would result in war with France and Britain.
He didn't have a choice. The Poles wanted war. Poland was not a peaceful neighbor after 1936 when Josef died and his westernized protege took power. Poland had invaded Ukraine and occupied the capital of Lithuania. During the Czech secession of land, the Polish took their own share. The Polish believed they could be in Berlin within weeks of war due to Allied backing. The US intervened in negotiations and armed the Polish. For days prior to invasion, Polish irreegulars were terrorizing Germans on the border and Marxists were massacring Germans in Dan Zig.
Post War, the Allies have tried to claim this border terrorism was a Nazi False Flag, which is utter bullshit. It has no evidence and the incidents are too many. There has been enormous propaganda since the end of the war to blame Germany.
Quote:
"As a servant of the U.S. Government and U.S. war policy, Jackson came up with the only solution: to ban any discussion on the causes of the war before the Nuremberg tribunal. In other words, not to have a fair trial. In the transcripts of the proceedings, nothing is found on the war policies of the West, Poland, or the USSR since almost all documents and testimonies that would have been relevant in this respect were rejected by the court as irrelevant.
But affidavits like the one signed by Alfred Naujocks, in which he claimed, without any corroboration, that he participated in a German undercover operation to attack the Gleiwitz radio station on the very night that Hitler ordered the invasion of Poland, and blame it on the Poles in order to "justify" Germany's "crime against peace"—this was admitted by the court with no questions or discussion. Naujocks did not appear in person, only his affidavit was put in evidence; there was no opportunity for cross-examination of the witness by the defense."
Even when the latter decided not to intervene, Hitler continued building up to invade them taking over half of Europe.
Not intervene? France invaded Germany days after the German declaration. It was a false invasion to give the Poles a spine, to trick them into thinking help was coming. it wasn't.
Quote:
The Saar Offensive was a French ground operation into Saarland, Germany, during the early stages of World War II, from 7 to 16 September 1939. The purpose of the attack was to assist Poland, which was then under invasion. The all-out assault was to have been carried out by roughly 40 divisions, including one armored division, three mechanised divisions, 78 artillery regiments and 40 tank battalions. The offensive was stopped and the French forces eventually withdrew amid a German counter-offensive on 17 October.
Britain bombed Germany for months but Germany never retaliated. Even after the Polish war was settled, Britain continued to bomb despite Germany wanting peace. Belgium and Holland were to be used as landing bases and attack positions for the allies. They were not neutral so they had to be invaded. Denmark was occupied peacefully with no resistance from its government due to a fear of British occupation. Norway was also occupied when the British illegally mined Norwegian neutral seas and even sent an invasion force in preparation, but the Germans arrived first.
The first year of the war was a scramble between the West and Germany to seize territory for the eventual all out war. A scramble initiated by Britain and France despite consistent calls for peace by Germany, even after France invaded Germany first.
He then further declared war on the United States.
Which was legal. The US was already at war with Germany when it was funding its opposition and sending troops to fight for Britain, protecting British trade while aiding the Soviets. The US was already at war with Germany, Germany merely made it official. Robert, Jackson, the Chief Prosecutor for the United States at the Nuremberg Trial even agreed:
Quote:
"After studying some of the documents, Jackson knew well and emphasized that the German declaration of war on the United States was perfectly legal. Therefore, he pointed out, it had to be shown before the court that the war in Europe was, from the beginning, a German aggression contrary to international law (making it a Crime Against Peace). Thus, the invasion of Poland had to be shown to be an aggressive move with no justification, and no blame on Poland. Further study of the files brought Jackson to doubt that a fair trial would support, in any way, the finding of Germany's exclusive responsibility. On the contrary, he said:
"The Germans will certainly accuse our three European allies to have pursued a policy that has enforced the war. I say this because the seized documents from the German Foreign Office, which I have seen, all come to the same conclusion: "We have no escape, we must fight, we are surrounded, we are strangled." How would a judge react if this is found in the trial? I think he would say: "Before I condemn anyone as the aggressor, he ought to describe his motives."
And that would be catastrophic, Jackson continued, because
"… if this trial leads to a discussion of the political and economic causes of the war, this may cause infinite damage, both in Europe I do not know well, and in America that I know fairly well."
You can be tired of bullshit Tik-Tok but your messiah helped cause a World War.
He's not a messiah. He didn't cause the war. He sought to prevent one while protecting German interests. The US wanted war, the Zionists wanted war. They declared war in 1933 when they sanctioned Germany. Note this, Hitler was still part of a coalition at this time. He was not the supreme ruler, just a party head and no laws had been made to suppress Jews nor was there any sanctioning of any aggression against them. Even German Zionists attest to this. But the World Zionists didn't care:
They even said back in 1925 that should the NSDAP ever take power, a world war would occur.
Quote:
"In 1925 Wise became chairman of Keren Hayesod, while continuing efforts to bring the Reform movement around to a pro-Zionist stance. With the rise to power of Adolf Hitler's regime, Wise took the position that public opinion in the United States and elsewhere should be rallied against the Nazis. He used his influence with President Roosevelt both in this area as well as on the Zionist question
Wise, along with Leo Motzkin and Nahum Goldmann, encouraged the creation in August 1936 of the World Jewish Congress in order to create a broader representative body to fight Nazism."
WWII was inevitable and the West brought it about. They tricked the poles, the tricked their allies and they mercilessly pursued war with Germany no matter the costs or consequences.
You know who agrees with me? Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister who declared war on Germany in the first place.
You're against my viewpoint? That's cool. Unlike you, I don't think opinions should be censored.
When did I censor you? I didn't, so how is that relevant to you talking about things you know nothing about other than a basic lesson in state history class.
Even if this is true it doesnt change the fact that Nazi Germany had official doctrine of eradicating Jewish and Russian population, conquer Russian land, genocide population, settle Germans (lebensraum). Nazis killed jewish civilians who lived 500 years in Europe, they were artisans, vendors, traders, simple workers and nazis killed them in most brutal ways, even small children.
That was a crime against humanity and nothing can change it.

let's just say that the Polish military was solid, compared to the Soviet one.
Poland had better officers and generals, but USSR had more technology, like tanks, rocket artillery, planes, submarines. USSR had bad officers because they were promoted by the party who promoted loyalty and not skill & experience.
So Polish Army had officer quality and not-quality army and low numbers, Red Army had low-grade officers, quality army and large numbers (every soviet performed 3 years service and 30 years reserve).
Which mean Polish Army could pull good strategy and tactics, making good plans and coordinated manouvers, Red Army couldnt do it, but once Red Army soldiers clash with Polish, they get stronger because of strength, numbers and better technology.
Polish Army would have good performance and low casualties but Red Army would be victorious with high casualties.
The only way to beat Red Army over and over again is to use surprise and speed (to outmanouver them). Because Red Army used 'Deep operation battle', that was strategy created by USSR generals, it is basically just different name for Blitzkrieg. So their defense was weak because they position to attack only, not defend or retreat. Of course i am talking for Europe only as that wouldnt work on USSR soil because even if Moscow fall, you cant go further into Russia because your lines of supplies will stretch thin and you wont have food and munition to fight.

Nazis killed jewish civilians who lived 500 years in Europe, they were artisans, vendors, traders, simple workers and nazis killed them in most brutal ways, even small children.
No they werent. they were bankers, lawyers, business owners, lobyists and politicians. It is said that at the time, an average German citizen could not get a loan unless he was Jew or was friends with a Jew. They had infiltrated German politics, they were publishing propaganda and started to incite revolutions throughout all Germany, just like they did in other parts of Europe and Russia.
Now im not saying all the Jews deserved what happened to them, but they sure went poking at the nest and genociding them was the only choice Hitler had. Believe me if there was an other way, Hitler would have done it because organizing and executing the mass murder of so many Jews was a huge drain, both in terms of money, soldiers and time spent. Resources better spent in the actual war and not dealing with citizens.
Also its fucking hypocritical, that everybody mentions only the Jews and the Russians, when talking about Nazi crimes. Shows the amount of propaganda that is out there. Russians did worst and Jews brought this on themselves. Greeks were slaughtered too and they did nothing, they only wanted to remain neutral, their cities were destroyed, their gold and art stolen by the nazis and a loan was FORCED upon them to feed nazi soldiers. But you dont see us crying, all we wanted was our money and we are denied.
All you traitorous capitalistic, communistic, judaistic scumbags only know to cry about bad Hitler and the poor Jews historically and then deny the war reparations and war loan Germany still owes Greece. And then trashtalk Greece internationally and continue to give a pass to the Jew controlled banks. Hypocrites.
Kidnapping, torturing, killing people in the basements, pulling nails, sticking sticks in their anus, yeah really humane nazis were during 30s in Germany.
Really would love to see proof that the German government did this in peace time Germany... I'll wait for a source...
And then they start WWII where 80 million people dies. The humanity...
But they didn't start it. Why is it wrong for Germany to seek German land of German peoples but It's OK for Russia seek land that wasn't filled with Russian people? Of course, you fail to remember that the Soviets invaded Poland and ALL of Eastern Europe. But that's OK is it? Then massacring all the Polish Government and Military was also OK?
The Eastern theatre was also inevitable, the Soviets were planning to invade.
Post proof.
Germany had little defenses on the Soviet border, while the Soviets were amassing an enormous military, all trained offensively. The Soviets assumed the war would cripple the nations involved, allowing the Soviets to step in, with force, and dictate to the weakened parties.
Quote:
Stalin had defined the premise during his March 10, 1939, speech in Moscow:
"Nonintervention represents the endeavor... to allow all the warmongers to sink deeply into the mire of warfare, to quietly urge them on. The result will be that they weaken and exhaust one another. Then... (we will) appear on the scene with fresh forces and step in, naturally "in the interest of peace," to dictate terms to the weakened belligerents."
Of course, that didn't happen. Germany won the war swiftly. While the West fought, the Soviets seized Eastern Europe by force and enacted war against Finland. Germany turned a blind eye under the condition that Romania be left alone. The Soviets agreed to this before but suddenly changed their minds.
Quote:
Moscow had to fear that England would either be finished off by a German amphibious operation, or, due to its military weakness and miserable financial situation, find itself ready to conclude a peaceful compromise with the Reich. The Soviet Union would then stand alone against a Germany that controlled the resources of the entire European continent. Moreover, the Soviet Union saw the danger of a cooperative effort among all the capitalist powers, including the Anglo-Saxons, against the USSR. To prevent this possibility, England had to be encouraged to continue waging war... To reinforce this hope and prevent a German landing operation against England, Moscow had to seek a conflict with Germany. With the threat of Soviet expansion toward Scandinavia and the Balkans in his rear, Hitler could not risk operation Sea Lion (the invasion plan for England). Instead, he had to transfer strong formations of his armed forces to the east to protect Germany's supply sources of nickel lumber, oil and grain.
Here is Hitler himself speaking in a conversation with Mannerheim which was recorded secretly without Hitler's knowledge. In it, he goes into great detail as to why the war in the East had to happen and that is was inevitably directly due to the Soviets gearing for war.
The troops of the Soviet Union had no defensive training. They were entirely geared towards offense. Preparations were made long before for the eventual seizure of Central Europe.
Quote:
The philosophy of the Red Army was attack oriented. The chief of staff, Georgi Zhukov, described the training at the Soviet general staff academy:
"Participants in the course were instructed that wars are no longer declared; the aggressor strives far more to insure all the advantages of a surprise attack... The strategy of warfare is above all anchored in the correct thesis that the aggressor can only be beaten through offensive operations. Other variables of battle, such as counterthrusts, fighting to cover retreats and operations in case of encirclement, were, with few individual exceptions, only touched upon."
Quote:
Stalin lauded the modernization of the Red Army. He rebuffed Gen. Michail Chosin, the director of the Frunze academy, for proposing a toast to the USSR's peaceful foreign policy. The dictator substituted these words:
"Now that we have become strong, one must go from defense over to the attack. To accomplish the defense of our country we are obliged to take the offensive.... We must reform our instruction, our propaganda, agitation, our press to pervade an attack spirit. The Red Army is a modern army, and a modern army is an offensive army."
Quote:
Discussing the preparedness of the Red Army, Stalin heralded its intended employment:
"For us, the war plans are ready... In the course of the next two months we can begin the struggle against Germany. It may surprise you that I'm telling you our war plans, but it has to be. We must take this step for our protection and take revenge for Bulgaria and Finland. There is a peace treaty with Germany, but that's just an illusion, a curtain behind which we can work."
All of this information was found when Russia opened its wartime archives in the 90s but quickly closed them soon after when information like this was found. As the source says:
Quote:
The controversy will continue, at least until the former Allied powers Britain, the United States and Russia, whose governments have liberally exposed Germany's wartime records, release the relevant material in their own archives. The Austrian newspaper Die Presse of April 4, 1997 quoted the Moscow journalist Konstantin Preobrashenskiy about use of the Russian archives. "Once again, the archivists only approve access to the documents when they feel like it. It is regrettable to see how what was accessible yesterday is today closed once more."
What are you all so afraid of?
Oh right... the Truth. I don't expect you to argue this. You wont. You'll decry it all as Nazi propaganda because Nazis are inherently evil and the Communists were the good guys, blah blah. The Soviets wanted war, it was made clear in Stalin's speeches, in military mobilization despite no opposing German mobilization in the East and by direct plans for Central Europe while demanding Germany's only oil source in Romania. The Germans attacked just as the Soviets were readying their surprise attack against Germany. Germany was able to mobilize faster due to more efficient transport and methods.
Quote:
The Soviet general staff, however, had failed to appreciate how quickly the German army, upon arriving on the frontier, could launch an offensive. Shaposhnikov had estimated 10 to 15 days. To the Red Army's unpleasant surprise, the German armored and motorized divisions, right after reaching the border, struck with full fury. The captive Gen. Andrei Vlasov's remarks on the subject in 1942 were summarized by a German intelligence officer:
"The Soviets had been forming up since the beginning of the year, which, due to the bad Soviet railroad lines, went rather slowly. Hitler judged the situation perfectly and plowed right into the Soviets while they were deploying. This is how Vlasov explains the Germans' enormous initial success."
The German offensive only worked so well because the Soviet lines were geared towards offensive and surprise. Not defense. If the Soviets had prepared a defensive strategy, the Germans would have barely even made it to Kiev, let alone Moscow. Moral of the story; if the Soviets weren't sneaky warmongers, the Germans likely wouldn't have invaded or evne been able to invade.
Even if this is true it doesnt change the fact that Nazi Germany had official doctrine of eradicating Jewish and Russian population, conquer Russian land, genocide population, settle Germans (lebensraum). Nazis killed jewish civilians who lived 500 years in Europe, they were artisans, vendors, traders, simple workers and nazis killed them in most brutal ways, even small children.
That was a crime against humanity and nothing can change it.
And the source even goes into great detail the Union between Zionist groups and the Germans to deport Jews to Palestine. Meanwhile Atlantic Jews fermented hate against Germany. No one is going to discuss the Holohoa- *cough* -caust here. Stay on topic. Address points or kindly leave.
The Eastern theatre was also inevitable, the Soviets were planning to invade.
Germany had little defenses on the Soviet border, while the Soviets were amassing an enormous military, all trained offensively. their minds.

I said years ago that Red Army strategy was blitzkrieg - Deep Operation Battle, everyone know that. I dont know what Stalin was talking in 1939 and 1940, but movement of Red Army inside USSR shows that Red Army wasnt on the border with Germany when Germans attacked.
Germans brought 3 million troops to Soviet border while Stalin ordered Red Army to retreat deeper into USSR to show the world that it isnt USSR who started the war, Stalin knew this would happen in future (USSR will be blamed for attack). Soviet foreign ministry contacted German ministry to ask whats going on and why so much troops on Soviet border, and they replied 'those are officers on re-training'. Good one
Even if Stalin wanted to attack Europe or Germany, he didnt, it was USSR invaded, and it entered Europe only in 1944 to defeat Germany. Thats the fact and i dont think i should provide you wikipedia links for that, you know it.
Hitler was stupid as he recieved Soviet resources he can spend on Germany so his regime can live. When he attacked, he lost all resource imports and fought with reserves. His 1000 years reich lived 10, good riddance.

stalin withdrew troops because he knew his army was not ready to fight yet,he was trying to delay the war till 1942 atleast,when ussr would have the upper hand.by withdrawing he wanted to tell germany he wont fight but hitler saw through his plan.
