I love how much mileage is gotten from the right (and Liberals) over the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. The Soviets made a deal with the devil! And are therefore eeeevil! Not a single question over the dozens of pacts and even alliances the United States has made with Right wing dictators the world over. And the nature of the relationship between the US and these military dictators has been one of active engagement and assistance, the US providing weapons, intelligence, and kill lists. But these relationships get a total blind eye.
