When did i say anything even remotely like that just that soviet denazification wasn't as thorough as some like to pretend?
Are you saying Stalin shouldnt have stopped at Berlin?
Ok sorry misread your comment then
How could the soviets been more thorough in your opinion?
some were given a pass for convenience and even if much much less than the west "ex"-nazis still about 10% of large parts of east german goverment and people like Arno von Lenski and Kurt Nier got away with their crimes, maintained power and shielded friends because they agreed to collaborate with soviets letting this happen the wrong call .
