THIS DAY IN HISTORY – Stalin issues Order No. 227—outlawing cowards – 1943

Via History.com

On July 27, 1943, Joseph Stalin, premier and dictator of the Soviet Union, issues Order No. 227, what came to be known as the “Not one step backward” order, in light of German advances into Russian territory. The order declared, “Panic makers and cowards must be liquidated on the spot. Not one step backward without orders from higher headquarters! Commanders…who abandon a position without an order from higher headquarters are traitors to the Motherland.”

Early German successes against Russia had emboldened Hitler in his goal of taking Leningrad and Stalingrad. But the German attack on Stalingrad, thought foolhardy by Hitler’s generals, because of Russia’s superior manpower and the enormous drain on German resources and troop strength, was repulsed by a fierce Soviet fighting force, which had been reinforced with greater numbers of men and materials.

The Germans then turned their sights on Leningrad. Stalin needed to “motivate” both officers and civilians alike in their defense of Leningrad—hence, Order No. 227. But it was hardly necessary. On the same day the order was given, Russian peasants and partisans in the Leningrad region killed a German official, Adolf Beck, whose job was to send agricultural products from occupied Russia to Germany or German troops.

The Russian patriots also set fire to the granaries and barns in which the stash of agricultural products was stored before transport. A partisan pamphlet issued an order of its own: “Russians! Destroy the German landowners. Drive the Germans from the land of the Soviets!”

I was just wondering …. why are Breaking Bad and Falling Down anti-white?

Got answers?

I haven’t seen Falling Down in a long time, but it was directed by a jew and the stereotypically white main character is played by a jew, who after flipping shit, has a run in with an over-the-top creepy hollywood nazi and the main character rejects racism.

Breaking Bad was just horribly written beyond the original plot. I don’t recall racial themes, but I’m not saying it wasn’t there. That show was just a terrible waste of time.

So, are you implying that ol’ Joey Stalin & Ilk are like Dr. Pepper … so misunderstood?

I don’t like commies or Nazis. Neither of those turds have a clean end to hold.
I’ve always thought Peckinpah’s “Cross of Iron” was a pretty good film that showed the German soldier as being regular type guys stuck in a shitty situation. Pope Benedict was in the Wermacht for a while. I have an elderly friend from my ancestral area of Bavaria who was in the German Naval Infantry. Neither had any choice in the matter just like the millions in all the other armies.

The NAZIs tried to stop the gathering communist menace, and if hadn’t been for the unlimited supplies the USA and England were pouring into Stalin’s gov’t (at the expense of our boys in the Pacific) and the worst winter in 50 years, he might have succeeded. Instead, large swaths of the world fell into the communist abyss and another 80 million people died at the hands of the red filth. And America is teetering.
The John Birchers and Joseph McCarthy were right.

There seems to be an endless supply of willfully misinformed Jew loving Nazi haters on the site. They haven’t got a clue what Nazis or Fascists were but love to spew Commie hate mail willy nilly.

When did a Fascist take over a country and immediately begin murdering it’s own people. Mussolini was in power from 22 to 43 and his greatest crime was wiping out the Cosa Nostra(Jewish Mafia). Did Vargas or Peron wipe out their own people. Neither expelled any Jews. What about franco. The Spaniards had it pretty good for the 30 years he was in power. He broke the commie/Liberal Jewish cabal that started the civil war but he didn’t slaughter millions. Niether did the badly maligned Adolf. I don’t dare say Hitler lest I bring down the wrath of commie water carriers on here. All the above mentioned leaders save Franco were ousted by guess (((who))).

Luckily he was so brilliantly ignorant about warfare and leadership or he might have won.

He might have been ignorant, and his style of leadership was disgusting, but he did win. The sheer number of people and amount of material and not giving a shit how many died took care of that. Actually, his military and domestic policies were pretty much the same, kill your own people if they don’t do exactly what you want.

Oh wait, you meant Hitler. Yeah, we’re real lucky, just look at how great everything is. If he would have won, there would be whole nations of white people out from under the thumb of the bankers, and entire continents that weren’t getting Blacked as we speak. We wouldn’t even have the freedom for children to change sexes. Thanks, greatest generation!

I think he meant he would have won the entire war, not just half of Europe. The only true winners of the war were the (((Banksters))).

B.S. He was right about most of the tactics, he meddled too much in development of some weapons.
It wasn’t the “fierce Soviet fighting force,” it was the unlimited materiel Churchill and Roosevelt poured in and the worst winter in 50 years. All so your grandkids can have tranny story hour at the library, kneel to grotesque negro felons, and see men dressed as women in their bathrooms/locker rooms and Ibram X Kendi dictate their curriculum starting in grade school. Wake up, boomer dumbasses

The Jews in Hollywood will never admit that they are more evil than any other historical examples. Why should they when they have convinced most of the white goyim that the opposite is true?

Now the usual race traitors will say, “oh here we go again with the irrational jew hatred”, to which I say: Think of the 3 body problem. What is the solution? For the same reasons we must use stereotypes and blanket statements. The issues are too complex to address any other way. Still, without treating multiple bodies as no more than 2, technological achievement would have ceased long ago.

Jews don’t want White Boys to know whites are Israelites and they are imposters.

I was skeptical, but it looks believable to me. Its just an interesting historical documentary on its own.

Ken, this is the one I use when there are a lot of badly mal informed on a site. Not that TBP’s are badly informed but regarding this topic they have been told in and out of church an outright lie about who Israel is.
I have better ones that go into more detail but it went over like aids at a wedding reception here. Another ptroblem is some of the sources use it as an excuse to condemn all others to hell which is another lie at the opposite end of the topic. We were sent to enrich and love the unsaved and preach Christ crucified to the captives and behave as a priestly class. How badly we have performed that task lately.
