      Oof this ain't it chief. The Nazis expected a lengthy siege, it was part of their plan to exterminate the entire population. If they had surrendered it would have been even worse. Russia's invasion is imperialist nonsense but they aren't exterminating anyone ffs. Do yourself a favor and delete this

      Except Leningrad held, tied up millions of Nazi troops, and prevented army group North from achieving further advances.

      And you know, they won. At terrible cost.

      These were 13 almost unarmed guys on an island who got immediately bombed into the aether. For nothing. Save a fucking livestream.
