Well, saying Stalin threw citizens into the war is pretty hypocritical when you consider Nazi Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, France, etc. all had drafts too. In fact, deserting the German Wehrmacht warranted the death penalty. And Albert Einstein, a Jewish German actually fled to the United States and was a major scientist in the Manhattan Project (the creation of the atomic bomb), but you are correct. Germans do have a history of being extremely smart. The sewing machine was invented in Austria, the automobile was invented in Germany, and they sure did revolutionize warfare.
