World War II...
This has been my favorite subject of late. I am fascinated to learn about it. My sources of information include 10th standard NCERT textbooks, though i haven't learned much from them. I was really moved by the way Spielberg depicted the lives of people of occupied Poland. They were besiezed of their fortunes and forced to live in a ghetto(a closed area). Later many were sent to concentration camps. I saw a picture of a person tormented in a concentration camp in my 10th standard textbook. It was horrible. I could never imagine even in my wildest dreams a person in such a dismal condition.
There are many movies which presented their perspectives on world war II. But i was even more fascinated to learn about the world war II in the words of a person who witnessed it(though not directly but through newspapers). He is my grandfather and he is 81 now. He told me a great deal about Stalingrad war and how germans were defeated in that war. He also told me about Stalin, the dictator who acted despotic for the well being of his nation.
Stalin is a great man in a sense that he worked to glorify his country. He never eyed any foreign land unlike Hitler. His policies are communism and socialism. They are very effective but they have their trade-offs. Communism expects every individual to work for the government without expecting salary in return. Instead the government would provide all the amenities to the citizen. He/She shouldn't be owning any kind of assets or fortunes. There is no corporate in this system. Though communism played in vital role in carving USSR as the world's super power, it didn't sustain. People are selfish. No matter who and where they are. Everyone would wish to possess something. This human psychology built the corporate. This corporate ultimately led to the death of USSR. After the breaking up of USSR all the statues and idols of Stalin were destroyed. People hated Stalin but didn't recognise his role in carving USSR into a super power.
These were the memoirs of my grandfather during and after the II World War.
