I can see the comparisons people make, but;


 * 1. They both had their reasons; "lebensraum", "protecting ethnic Russians".


 * 2. Most true of them all, "cultures and traditions".


 * 3. The Olympics are chosen by an independent committee, merely a coincidence they both hosted them.


 * 4. Everyone has allies, some different from us.


 * 5. They both saw/see them as trying to control and contain them without their say or involvement.

Like I said, I can see them comparisons people make, but let's hold them off until Putin sets up concentration camps in Siberia.
