Was Patton right all along?

BTW in the end we did it right and defeated the soviets without resorting to nuclear war.
No, you sold us (millions Europeans into Asiatic , barbaric , totalitarian slavery ) to the dirty commies for many years . you ´d listen more visionary people (who know the drill) , and by the way. Moscow horde hate the cowards ...

Gen. George S. Patton suggested that after Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by nuclear gravity bombs, we, meaning the US, subject the Soviet cities of Moscow and Stalingrad to the same treatment. My thinking is Truman should've absolutely listened to Patton. Why? Well...
1. This would've likely stopped or at least stemmed the worldwide spread of Communism
2. Averted a 45 year Cold War between the US and the USSR
3. Stopped Stalin's continued human rights violations
4. Ensured US worldwide Supremacy
Had this happened, I don't think we would've had the Communist/Socialist cancer on the US like we do now.
MacArthur was "faded away" by Truman because he wanted to cross the Yalu River from N. Korea and continue on to Peking (Beijing) and Moscow accomplishing the same end result. The world would look a lot different today if they had been listened to.
 
They are reasonable and fairly if not precisely accurate.

the communists in general were far more murderous and barbaric than the nazis
How do you know they are accurate? more barbaric than the Nazis behave yourself, they didn't try and wipe the Jews of Europe out in industrial death camps and didn't invade half the World.
 
You need a link for that.

Patton was not heard or quoted in any history bookds as having said that. It is true he despised the communists and suggested that we use our European troops to fight on and take Moscow but in fact he is never known to have advocated nuking anyone.

I admire patton a great as well and not just for his brilliant service but for his staunch oppositionto communism. However if you are going to invoke him do not attribute things to him which he never said.

But now you can't let it go and want to destroy Russia even though the Soviet Union has been gone for decades.

It's what it would look like that's the problem even if it managed to exist at all.

They genocided millions of Russia Christians, they still hate Christians today. The executed and tortured the Clergy. They mass raped Nuns in Spain, dug up the bodies of Priests and Nuns and put them on public display. They did or tried to to overthrow the governments of Germany, Spain, Italy, France and of course succeeded overwhelmingly in Russia.

We know as much about the mass murders and negocides of communists as we do about the nazis and the holocaust. Soviet Archives which were made available gto the west after the fall of the USSR prove they were worse than Hitler.

It does not matter if you are trying to wipe out Jews or Kulaks genocide is genocide. Yes they did gave industrial death camps, they were simply called the gulag. Yes they did spread and in vade far more of the world than the nazis.
 
Interesting that both generals are considered great by many Americans, yet they wanted to use nukes on Russia and China.
In 1945 nukes were just considered bigger and better bombs. There wasn't the horror of using them that exists now.
