LiannaSilverwind: The problem is that our own nation had enough people who supported
such things, during wartime it's called collaboration and is
considered being treachery - if your side wins.
It's very easy to blame other people, nations, regimes for things *some* of our own people have supported. No excuses towards those who made decision to invade and no excuses to those who called for such help. There are many great books in Czech language written about who made the decision and how it all ended.
There is no need to blame full nations for decisions made by few, such generalizations are very popular amongst modern radical groups - it's all "Someone Else's Fault, Not Ours". As I have said - there were persecutions inside Soviet Union and other countries towards those who demonstrated against invasion of Czechoslovakia. These people supported our nation. Let's not forget their sacrifice as well.
Let's not forget our own people who have decided to fight the regime.
Let's not forget how many of our own people did support the regime...
If you forget your past, you are condemned to relive it.
P.S. And no excuses for monsters you have mentioned. For sure.
