As an aside, and comparison between Nazi Germany under Hitler and Stalin's Soviet Russia, at the end of WW2 with Stalin intent on installing Russian friendly governments in Eastern European countries he built some 16 new camps and allegedly reopened camps on sites at both Auschwitz and Buchenwald in order to hold dissidents from Poland, Germany and Hungary etc. Stalin's great purges had begun in the 1930s but now escalated again as the "iron curtain" fell down. By 1950 some 2.5 million prisoners were being held in camps and gulags in both Eastern Europe and Russia itself. Stalin's regime was also anti-Semitic and whilst it may not have resorted to the horror tactics of Hitler's Final Solution, it was certainly brutal and equally murderous. Most historians agree that Stalin was ultimately responsible for far more deaths than the Nazis.
