Anyone got any layman friendly resources on, one, the invasion of Poland, and two, the war with Finland, that I can lightly sprinkle into liberal discussions on either?

Also Polish government and central command ran off to Romania shortly before, leaving still fighting army without command and with explicit orders to not fight against the Soviets.
And then when the Soviet Union liberated Poland, the government in exile had the nerve to call them evil tyrants despite the USSR extending cooperation and allowing elections.
That government was also repeatedly fucked over by their western allies, there is even suspected murder on its head by the British (probably it was really an accident, but the fact Brits are prolonging the reveal of their own documents about the case do cause suspicions).
