I was going to find an example of a country being invaded by two major powers that weren't working together and yeah, there's not very many, but its a churlish point to make that misses the actual argument. I do see your point. Calling it 'whitewashing' is a bit of a stretch, but I can see how it underemphasizes the degree to which the nazis / soviets were coordinating.
