  • One of my favorite memories from undergrad was when our professor gave us a weekend writing assignment that was something to the effect of “How could the Nazis have won WW2?” Queue 8:45 Monday morning and he spends the whole class period tearing into everyone’s paper explaining how bad the ideas were.

    Basically, he said that “There’s no argument to be made for the Nazis winning WW2 that doesn’t rely on changing the meaning of the word(s) ‘Nazi,’ ‘won,’ and/or ‘WW2.’” Barring a miracle for Hitler & co., the outcome was was decided in 1939.


  • No. Germany had no direct access to oil, that’s what the eastern push was for. Not to mention the fact that Stalin had expansionist plans himself. If Germany didn’t invade Russia, Russia would’ve simply invaded Germany sooner or later.

    Sure, there are some things that could’ve helped Germany hold out longer or given them leverage for peace negotiations, but Germany was doomed the second they became a hostile middle entity in an already divided continent.
