hunter07 is an unknown quantity at this point
To my understanding Russia started the war against Finland for two reasons.
1. To establish defensive possition in case Germany decided to invade Russia from Finland. Stain was not a complete idiot, he knew that the war against Germany was coming.
2. Russia wanted to test out its new military strategies, which by the way, obviously did not work.

I agree that Finland had the right to the territory that it lost during the 1939 war but to join Nazi Germany in its conquest, in my opinion, was a moral mistake.
