This is how Churchill expressed inability to predict what Soviet Union will at the start of World War 2. The timeline below show why he could be puzzled:

a) August 23,  1939 - Soviet Union and Germany sign non-aggression pact

b) September 1, 1939 - Germany invades Poland (then ally of Britain and France).

c) September 3, 1939 - Britain declares war on Germany as a consequence of German's invasion of Poland.

d) September 17, 1939 - Soviet Union invades eastern Poland. Poland is defeated and partitioned between Germany and Soviet Union.

Therefore from Churchill standpoint: Soviet Union is allied with Germany, whom are at war with Britain. Go figure what Stalin is going to do?

Write a short literacy analysis about “Home sweet Home” By Jonathan G T Tan
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think I should have seen Home Sweet Home Alone as a method of torture. If I used to watch the two original movies every year during Christmas, he was born with a witty tiger and watched them every year during Christmas. This Christmas movie is a reboot of the home lone franchise, and now it is a Hollywoods fourth attempt of making a home lone movie without Macaulay Culkin. Did anyone ask for that movie? No. Did anybody expect this movie to be good? Negatory. Now, I’m not a clear one. What am the hell did I watch my only dog?

John Hughes and Chris Columbus crafted two classics with Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The teen he was in, he acted in the most beautiful and emotional films. Home Alone 3 is notable only because it is due to the very young Scarlett Johansson. And let’s be honest. No one on the planet has ever enjoyed watching Home Alone 4: Making the House Back or Home Alone: Holiday Heist. But since Disney acquired 20th Century Fox and became a director of this business, they decided to do what they do with everything: make a sequel.
