You 'justified' the rape of someone because the Nazis committed terrible crimes.
The truth is, however, that it doesn't matter how many crimes or gruesome acts the Nazis have committed, there is no justification to rape anyone, not even when she raises her right arm and yells
Heil Hitler! right in the Russian soldiers face(s) right before it happens.
So the principle is the same, shoving the responsibility for a crime onto the victim - or any other circumstances - when in the end the sole responsibility for such an action always lies by the perpetrator(s).
There is no shared responsibility.
