Which is also why the Russians hung their flag when they took Berlin, not America.
April 16, 1945 - Soviet troops begin their final attack on Berlin; Americans enter Nuremberg.
April 21, 1945 - Soviets reach Berlin.
Besides Russia, Britain was doing air raids on Berlin.

I don?t know why I am wasting time responding to such nonsense but the Berlin Wall's only relation to WWII is the fact that, because East Germany and East Berlin were in the Soviet zone after the war, those areas fell under Soviet influence and therefore suffered under Communist totalitarianism. The Wall was put up to stop the influx of people trying to flee East Berlin to freedom in the West. The wall became a symbol of Soviet oppression which is why a piece of it stands in Riga today as a memorial to the 1/3 of the Latvian population that was destroyed in the Soviet gulag. Anyway next time you want to show off your history "knowledge" at least have some semblance of an idea what the fuck you are talking about please. Idiot.
