The European Atrocity You Never Heard About

[muon2]

I actually did learn some of this as a student in the 70's. I grew up in the heart of the Cold War, and the history of the formation of the Warsaw Pact was part of the curriculum. Discussion of the size of the Warsaw Pact included a description of the mass relocation to establish the modern borders. Of course the deportations of Germans from Soviet-controlled areas were presented as a Stalinist idea and the Allied role was ignored. All blame to the USSR in good Cold War fashion.
