      One of my favorite quotes has always been amateurs talk tactics professionals talk logistics. My family are Czechs so I got no love for the third Reich but the idea that the Germans were out to enslave humanity like in The Man in The High Castle. I've gotten into so many arguments with people when they'd say something as ridiculous as well if it wasn't for the United States we'd all be speaking German. They neither had the manpower, materials, or even the slightest intention of crossing the Atlantic to invade our country. Japan was way worse than Germany was in World War II but people have a bad habit of glossing over some of the stuff they did. Most people can tell you what the Holocaust is but when you ask them about Nanking you get that blank fluoride stare.

      @@rc59191 Japan was forced into war with the US. Poland's regional aggression against Germany was used by the United Kingdom to start the war in Europe. China's regional aggression against Japan is what did so in the Pacific. It's from the same proxy war playbook that we have seen again and again, most recently with Russia and Ukraine.

    You cannot produce these videos fast enough for me! Frankly I’m surprised this channel hasn’t been shut down by now…? It isn’t just the lack of propaganda and better objectivity, but rather the incredibly detailed research for the truth surrounding historical events. I have been a student of the circumstances surrounding the events in Europe from 1917 to 1945 for over 20 years. No subject has opened my eyes more than my pursuit for a greater understanding of world war 2, no subject has been more propagandized, lied about and used for political/ideological reasons. I cannot believe how naive I was when I first began trying to understand it all….it has made me much more critical of history in general.

    I'd really like to understand why the Allies were so hell bent on defeating Germany, both in WW1, but especially WW2.
    Knowing that Wallstreet the US and Britain had helped Trotsky to power, as well as the Lend Lease act to USSR, there was incentive to have a USSR for reasons I'm not quite aware of. But why Germany had to be crushed, I don't quite undertand, apart from someone not wanting Germany to be a central competing force in Europe, and of course Jewish groups wanting to stay and play an important role.
    I've heard that NS money wealth creation out-competed the newly created fiat system of the US Federal Reserve, and in time Germany would have become wealthier and more dominant.
    The same goes for the current crisis with Russia, Germany suffered a great loss from gas trade being cut off from Russia.
    Follow the money is my thesis. I just want to understand.

    Allies invading Soviet Union in 1940 was either the most intense fever dream Allied leaders ever devised or more likely completely made up. Britain had almost no army in the beginning of 1940, they managed to scrape together only 380k men to France by May.
    The Red Army mobilized up to 5.3 million men by September 20th 1939, they demobilized later and by September 1st 1940 'only' 3.4 million men were on active duty.(Source Viktor Suvorov - The Chief Culprit) Although even he parrots the idea that Allies were seriously planning an invasion of Soviet Union and Soviets started to demobilize already in January 1st 1940 once the Allied intentions of not invading somehow became clear.
    Germany and Soviet Union together would have rolled both the French and the British empires with ease.
    They fed these Baku and Murmansk invasions to Finland all throughout February 1940, intensifying the fantasies after Soviet Union offered peace to Finland, trying to keep the Soviet invasion of Finland going. They pressured Finland quite heavily to stop negotiating for peace and gave false promises of help. Göring told Finland to accept the Soviet peace offer 1 day before Soviets gave the offer on February 23rd 1940. The British and the French governments were very against the peace between Finland and Soviet Union, as was almost the whole Soviet leadership, except for some reason Stalin.

    Between 41 and 42
    Malta taken and Egypt conquered, this would of gotten Spain into the war and with that the whole of the Mediterranean would of been secured.
    The soviets would of most likely attacked in the summer of 42 and though initial advances would of been made, these spearheads would of been cut off and destroyed. These encirclements would have been more devastating than the ones made in 41. Also this obvious aggression would have mobilized most of Europe to have a pro-German stance.
    The one big mistake that decided the war was Hitler's reluctance to get Germany on a full war footing from the start of the war.

    Nice vid and I agree with your general assertion that given the threats to Nazi Germany u cite, massive Soviet military buildup and their aggressive behavior and also eventual US entry into the war Barbarossa not only made sense but perhaps Hitler had no choice. However you can't neglect Hitler's Nazi ideology as a driver for Barbarossa as well. The timing of Barbarossa yes was driven by military necessity but Hitler's identification of Bolshevism and Judaism as being not only one in the same but Nazi Germany's arch nemesis was the ideological driver for invasion with the goal of total annihilation of the threat. And it would be the brutal racial policies that would undermine Barbarossa's chances for success. Not just against the the Nazi's perceived Bolshevik/Jewish threat but also the Slavs of the East in general. The German Ostplan called for the elimination of 30M Slavs and enslavement for most of the rest. This is why Hitler was ideologically incapable of seeing that granting Ukraine or other regions in the USSR partial autonomy for their assistance in the war against Stalin was really his only chance at victory.

      Poland, just so by the way, took chunks of Czechia when it was opportune, there are records of nearly two hundred border raids into Reich territory, but most importantly: it occupied Danzig and mistreated the Germans within its majority German parts.
      Hitler's ultimatum was to end the occupation and the mistreatment of Germans. He didn't even request an immediate resolution of a transit between Danzig and the Reich. Nor did he want any pre-1914 German lands back.
      Yes, Poland incited a German invasion, and Britain used it to declare war, which it escalated into the Second World War with the attempted invasion of Norway - a *neutral* country. That's what Britain's warmongers wanted, and Poland had no more weight for them at that point.

      Germans had NO legal right to private property after the Reichstagbrandverordnung 1933. There were extensive socliast policies such as retirement benefits for the aging, wage subsidies for the poor, landreforms, etc. They had the biggest union in history and a central planned economy.
      The only difference is that one divides by class while the other divides by race. They went to war over who was the predominant socialist, the "real" one.

      @StefanR-h1l 11 дней назад

      @kayako128well they pretty much did. The Wehrmacht squashed the red army, taking their main food supply in Ukraine which would’ve meant mass famine by 42 . The gigantic relocation of Soviet industry (that almost halted all Soviet war production) ? Impossible without lend lease. Lend lease saved the Soviets from starvation , gave them the opportunity to go all out; emptying their stocks to slow down the Germans (as lend lease material was coming). Lend lease , combined with the gigantic allied bombing campaign that crippled the German supply lines AND the opening of two fronts in the west pushed the Soviets into Europe - take one of those things away and they never ever see the borders of the Reich. The 27mio death would’ve been child’s play without western help .

    • @StefanR-h1l
      @StefanR-h1l 10 дней назад

      @kayako128 the civilian - casualty figures are a bit suss - the Soviets were known to inflate numbers & after Stalins order for a total partisan warfare basically every farmer was a potential soldier.
      It’s like you didn’t read half the points I was making:
      1. after the Ukraine was lost the Soviets faced total famine - that’s a fact. Unless communists don’t need food like regular people they’d be starving by the 10s of millions by 42.
      2. the first lend lease goods arrived in late 41 - the knowledge of a secured supply of material allowed the Soviets to go all out; no need to worry about supply chain issues.
      3. the US sent
      From October 1, 1941, to May 31, 1945, the United States delivered to the Soviet Union 427,284 trucks, 13,303 combat vehicles, 35,170 motorcycles, 2,328 ordnance service vehicles, 2,670,371 tons of petroleum products (gasoline and oil) or 57.8 percent of the aviation fuel including nearly 90 percent of high-octane fuel used,4,478,116 tons of foodstuffs (canned meats, sugar, flour, salt, etc.), 1,911 steam locomotives, 66 diesel locomotives, 9,920 flat cars, 1,000 dump cars, 120 tank cars, and 35 heavy machinery cars. Ordnance goods (ammunition, artillery shells, mines, assorted explosives) provided amounted to 53 percent of total domestic consumption. Add 1/3 of all explosions to that. Basically the entire Soviet Air Force was lend-lease supplied. The trucks used to transport the troops fast on crucial battles? US made. All critical equipment (waterproof cable , communication equipment)? US made.
      If that’s „a small aid“ I wouldn’t want to see what you quantify as „big help“. Lend lease was the reason we got a red Eastern Europe , China , Korea & Vietnam. Did the Soviets recover after 42? Sure . But who bridged that gap? Lend lease.
      The US - mainly FDR - wanted Germany crushed , not the Soviets. FDR liked Stalin , Churchill wanted to bring down Germany - at all costs. If they would’ve stood by & stopped the help for the Soviets the communists would be done by 1942.
      Many Soviet leaders admitted to the fact that lend lease saved them - many in private like Zhukov. It’s „the big Russia lie“ to think they would’ve withstood the onslaught the Germans hit them with .
