And BTW. They are not 'simple people'. They are solders. Good solders don't surrender.
Has there been any evidence to back either side's claims on who started it? I think not.

It's one's word against the other's.

And as for the "Good soldiers don't surrender"-bit, have you been in a war? Have you experienced how it is to be in the frontlines, fearing and praying 24/7 that the next bullet doesnt bear your name?

That's why when Finns in 1944 got in pinch they immediately changed sides
and started shooting Germans in the back.
Finns just wanted to be alive with whoever is the strongest one.
Right?
Honor? Which honor?

I dont see how this has anything to do with what I asked from you. Have you been in a war, in the frontlines?

Personally, I think that nobody, who havent been in the frontlines, shouldnt make statement like you did. And that is my personal opinion.
