- Duff 16y agoThey were more like allies than enemies at that point. The pact carved up Polish (and other nations) territory a few weeks in advance of the German invasion.
- stcredzero 16y agoWell, the kind of allies who are looking for the prime opportunity to knife each other in the back because they think the other is a egregious evil that has no honor nor deserves to quarter. If it wasn't for this mutual utter disdain, the allies might not have won WWII.
