what do you think about Stalin´s Torch-men-Order N 0428?

in order to understand extreme brutality of WW2 in Belarus, and Belarusians who fought Muscovite occupiers (not just in 1941-45, but from 1798 to 1991) we have to start with reading stalin´s Torch-men-Order N 0428 "All settlements, in which German troops are found, up to a depth of 40 - 60km from the main lines of battle, are to be destroyed and set on fire, also 20-30km from the roads. For the destruction of the settled areas in the required radius, the air force will be made available, also artillery and rocket-launchers will be used extensively, as well as intelligence units, skiers and Partisan divisions, who are equipped with bottles with flammable liquid. These hunting expeditions in their activities of destruction are to be dressed to the greatest extent in German soldier's uniforms and uniforms of the Waffen-SS looted from the German army. This will ignite hatred toward all fascist occupiers and make the conscription of partisans from the outlaying areas of fascist territories easier. It is important to have survivors who will tell about "German atrocities". For this purpose every regiment is to form hunter-units of about 20- 30 men strong with the task to detonate and incinerate the villages.

We have to select brave fighters for this action of destruction of settled areas. These men will be especially recommended to receive bravery awards when working in German uniforms behind enemy lines and destroying those settlement outposts. Among the population we have to spread the rumor that the Germans are burning the villages in order to punish the Partisans" a LONG article on this subject from American radio svoboda : https://www.svoboda.org/a/29648156.html

It's an embellished hoax propagated by Holocaust deniers.

The actual text of Stalin’s Order 0428 rendered above is interesting not so much for what it contains as for what it does not contain. No passages about Soviet troops disguised in German uniforms committing atrocities against their own population are contained in that order. This means that the version of that order containing such passages is not authentic, and that said passages are the product of a falsification of the original document.

Headquarters of the Supreme Command

Order
dated November 17, 1941 No. 428

on the creation of special teams for the destruction and burning of settlements in the rear of the Nazi troops

Moscow

The experience of the last month of the war showed that the German army is poorly adapted to war in winter conditions, does not have warm clothing and, experiencing enormous difficulties from the onset of frost, huddles in the front line in populated areas. Arrogant to the point of insolence, the enemy was going to spend the winter in the warm houses of Moscow and Leningrad, but this was prevented by the actions of our troops. On vast sectors of the front, the German troops, having met stubborn resistance from our units, were forced to go over to the defensive and were located in settlements along the roads for 20-30 km on both sides. German soldiers live, as a rule, in cities, in townships, in villages, in peasant huts, sheds, barns, baths near the front, and the headquarters of German units are located in larger settlements and cities, they hide in basements, using them as shelter from our aviation and artillery. The Soviet population of these points is usually evicted and thrown out by the German invaders.

To deprive the German army of the opportunity to settle in villages and cities, drive the German invaders out of all settlements into the cold in the field, smoke them out of all rooms and warm shelters and make them freeze in the open - this is an urgent task, on the solution of which the acceleration of the defeat of the enemy largely depends. and the decay of his army.

The headquarters of the Supreme High Command ORDERS:

1. To destroy and burn to ashes all settlements in the rear of the German troops at a distance of 40-60 km in depth from the forward edge and 20-30 km to the right and left of the roads.

To destroy populated areas within the specified radius of action, immediately abandon aviation, make extensive use of artillery and mortar fire, teams of scouts, skiers and partisan sabotage groups supplied with Molotov cocktails, grenades and subversive weapons.

2. In each regiment, create teams of hunters of 20-30 people each for the explosion and burning of settlements in which the enemy troops are located. In the team of hunters to select the most courageous and politically strong fighters, commanders and political workers, carefully explaining to them the tasks and significance of this event for the defeat of the German army. Outstanding brave souls for their courageous actions to destroy the settlements in which the German troops are located, to present to the government award.

3. In the event of a forced withdrawal of our units in one sector or another, take the Soviet population with us and be sure to destroy all settlements without exception so that the enemy cannot use them. First of all, for this purpose, use the teams of hunters allocated in the regiments.

4. The military councils of the fronts and individual armies systematically check how the missions for the destruction of settlements in the above-mentioned radius from the front line are being carried out. The rate every 3 days with a separate report to report how many and which settlements have been destroyed in the past days and by what means these results have been achieved.

..
Yes, everyone knows this; we've known it for 80 years. Starving out the Germans and destroying shelter was the strategy Stalin used, copying what the Czar did against Napoleon. That part is true.

The lie is that the order contained directives for the Soviets to burn while dressed in German uniforms. Some Holocaust denier made that part up.

Nazi atrocities did need to be magnified in the occupied territories.

The Einsatzgruppen slaughtered upwards of a million innocent civilians in the wake of the invading army aided by their Lithuanian lap dogs.

Nazis bad.

Litwin, your claim that the Soviets conducted “false flag” attacks was debunked. Get over it.
