The friendship of the German and Soviet peoples is "cemented by blood" and "has every reason to be lasting." Stalin said in December of 1939 in a message to the German foreign minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop (later to be executed as a war criminal), acknowledging congratulations on his 60th birthday. Stalin participated in what The London Times starkly called "the rape of Poland" when his armies spread over the eastern half of that conquered land. But eventually Poland, then Russia itself, was a German-Russian battleground, and Stalin said of the non-aggression pact which Hitler ripped to shreds: "No peaceful nation could refuse a peace accord with a neighboring power, even if such monsters and cannibals as Hitler and Ribbentrop were found at its head." In the same speech he said: "History shows that invincible armies do not exist." And then he proved It.
