With regard to the "National Socialist or Communist Socialist" thing. The historical parallel alluded to was incomplete - that is a fact. In 1939 Poland was invaded by the Germans from the west and by the Russians from the east, acosy agreement that formed part of their Non-Aggression Pact.

If anyone does want to draw on such parallels from history they should do so in a complete, accurate and factual manner. Failure to do so allows inferences to be drawn from the authors omissions.

I note that Ritchies original questions have not been taken up, answered or addressed in any way.
