There is a good book about this subject called Stalin, Hitler, and Europe 1939-1941: The Imbalance of Power. It was written by James E. McSherry an America WW 2 vet, historian and state department employee during the Eisenhower years. In November of 1940 Molotov went to Berlin to discuss an alliance. Molotov listed out Soviet terms which were: 1.)Provided that the German troops are immediately withdrawn from Finland, which, under the compact of 1939, belongs to the Soviet Union's sphere of influence. At the same time the Soviet Union undertakes to ensure peacefil relations with Finland and to protect German economic interests in Finland (export of lumber and nickle). 2.) Provided that within the next few months the security of the Soviet Union in the Straits is assured by the conclusion of a mutual assistance pact between the Soviet Union and Bulgaria, which geographically is situated inside the security zone of the Black Sea boundaries of the Soviet Union, and by the establishment of a base for land and naval forces of the USSR within range of the Bosporus and the Dardanelles by means of a long term lease 3.) Provided that the area south of Batum and Baku in the general direction of the Persian Gulf is recognized as the center of aspirations of the Soviet Union 4.) Provided that Japan renounces her rights to concessions for coal and oil in Northern Sakhalin. Basically Hitler agreed with all but number 2. It became something of an issue . It seems that there was a legitimate attempt to work out a deal bringing Russia into the Axis. Hitler didn't want them gaining control of any other European countries and the negotiations fell apart. Hitler basically came to the same conclusion as Napoleon. England is hoping to open up a second front by getting the Russians involved on their side. If we wipe Russia out England will lose all hope of victory and sue for peace.
Here is a Part of "14 Days That Saved the World", an essay by Paul Ballard that summarizes what Adolf Hitler saw, and what he did, in the summer days of 1941 while Stalin was amassing and positioning a huge offensive assault force along the western borders:
The sources given in "14 Days That Saved the World" appear credible to me. Another good source is the book Stalin's War of Extermination by Joachim Hoffmann, long-time (Jewish) historian at the Research Department for Military History of the German Army, considered the most qualified specialist in Soviet military history in Germany. In chpter two, Hoffmann assembles a mountain of documented evidence which demonstrates that a Soviet invasion of Europe was imminent in June, 1941 -- a fact wellknown to the Germans. I can print here only a few excerpts:
The personality of Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill could very well be a subject of interest to an alienist who, by definition, is a physician who treats mental disorders. There is a saying that the world is governed with very little sense and there are times when one could add to this statement that it often has been governed by lunatics. Churchill was born in 1874 and died in 1965. His father was Randolph Spencer-Churchill, a son of the Duke of Marlborough. The first Duke was John Churchill, one of Englandâs most capable military commanders, who died without male issue in 1722 and the title was given to one of his nephews, a Spencer. As a courtesy, the Spencer family was allowed to add Churchill to its name, separated by a hyphen. Winston always wanted to believe that he was a gifted military leader in the mold of the first Duke but his efforts at generalship were always unqualified disasters that he generally blamed on other people. This chronic refusal to accept responsibility for his own incompetent actions is one of Churchillâs less endearing qualities. Randolph Churchill died early as the result of rampant syphilis that turned him from an interesting minor politician to a pathetic madman who had to be kept away from the public in the final years of his life. His mother was the former Jennie Jerome, an American. The Jerome family had seen better days when Jennie met Randolph. Her father, Leonard, was a stock-market manipulator who had lost his money and the marriage was more one of convenience than of affection. The Jeromes were by background very typically American. On her fatherâs side, Jennie was mostly Irish and on her motherâs American Indian and Jewish. The union produced two children, Winston and Jack. The parents lived separate lives, both seeking the company of other men. Winstonâs psyche suffered accordingly and throughout his life, his frantic desire for attention obviously had its roots in his abandonment as a child. As a member of the 4th (Queenâs Own) Hussars, in 1896 Churchill became embroiled in a lawsuit wherein he was publicly accused of having engaged in the commission of âacts of gross immorality of the Oscar Wilde (homosexual) type.â This case was duly settled out of court for a payment of money and the charges were withdrawn. Also a determinant factor was the interference by the Prince of Wales with whom his mother was having an affair. In 1905, Churchill hired a young man, Edward Marsh (later Sir Edward) as his private secretary. His mother, always concerned about her sonâs political career, was concerned because Marsh was a well known homosexual who later became one of Winstonâs most intimate lifelong friends. Personal correspondence of March, now in private hands, attests to the nature and duration of their friendship. Churchill, as Asquith once said, was consumed with vanity and his belief that he was a great military leader led him from the terrible disaster of Gallipoli through the campaigns of the Second World War. He meddled constantly in military matters to the despair and eventual fury of his professional military advisors but his political excursions were even more disastrous. Churchill was a man who was incapable of love but could certainly hate. He was viciously vindictive towards anyone who thwarted him and a number of these perceived enemies died sudden deaths during the war when such activities were much easier to order and conceal. One of Churchillâs less attractive traits, aside from his refusal to accept the responsibility for the failure of his actions, was his ability to change his opinions at a momentâs notice. Once anti-American, he did a complete about-face when confronted with a war he escalated and could not fight, and from a supporter of Hitlerâs rebuilding of Germany, he turned into a bitter enemy after a Jewish political action association composed of wealthy businessmen hired him to be their spokesman. Churchill lavishly praised President Franklin Roosevelt to his face and defamed him, with the ugliest of accusations, behind his back. We owe a thanks to Mr. Eliot Roosevelt, stepson of FDR, to learn that fellow zionists FDR and H. Morgenthau had no respect for him. But hence, Winston, corrupt as he was, was "their man" in Downing Street No.10.
He helped Zionism, and in 1937 he tried to help Jews by writing "How the Jews can combat persecution". More here. He wrote that Jews "have been partly responsible for the antagonism from which they suffer." Obviously, to suggest that Jews have misbehaved is anti-Semitic. We must say that Jews are flawless, and all their problems are due to anti-Semites. Churchill was mentally ill, like most Zionist puppets, not anti-Semitic, as you can see here and here. Judicial-inc has this and this on Churchill
Strangely, you neglect to mention the fact that churchill, on his mother side was american, scarcely alluded to it-nor did you mention his books, or any of the content of his lecture tour of the usa, which he visited twice, BEFORE he became chancellor of the exchequer, prior to becoming prime minister. Yes, its obvious he hated america, you fucking twat. Piss off.
How can you blame Hitler for winning a war that he didn't start? You don't have to be a Holocaust revisionist to accept the abundant amount of evidence that proves that Hitler didn't start the war. All there is for evidence supporting the opposite are some undefinable claims found in Mein Kampf, which where written when the bitter taste of WW1 was still in the Fuhrer's mouth. Then, why would you support war against Hitler, but not against Stalin - who long betrayed Trotskyite principles, murdered many more innocents than Hitler did - even if the most royal Holocoastian estimates are correct, and was a tyrannical dictator acting under the veil of Marxism. Which, despite my distaste of the former, was less of a bloodthirsty ideology than the one practiced by Dzhugashvili. With the above in mind. Don't you think that the least thing we can say is that we went after "the wrong enemy"?
No, I don't think we went after the wrong enemy. The Allies defeated Hitler and Mussolini, and Tojo in Japan. Could Stalin have been stopped? Maybe, but what would a failure there have meant? There is no guarantee in war. To my understanding, Russia...as we know it...has never really been defeated in a war by an invading force. Pretty damn big country to think you can occupy and control. Think nuking Moscow right after Hiroshima would really have done the trick? I don't know about some Americans, they truly think we can rule the entire globe...
Interesting. Sounds as if you advocate might is right. Since the Tri-Axis was "beatable" it was a worthy fight by the U.S. Since Stalin was unbeatable it's proper that we fought his enemies. If one were to list Russia, China, Italy, Japan and Germany on a list, how would you categorize them in order of human rights, military oppression, social mores, justice ect. My guess would be Russia (enemy of the Tri-Axis) and China (enemy of Japan) would top the list of "bad guys". The nations that the U.S. and Britain fought would be on the "good guy" list. Peculiar?
