[quote="Sgt Stryker":9626d]Actually Hitler tried to invade Russia because there was no way in hell Germany could support their war against the UK without new resources, especially fuel.
Of course at the time he thought that people would rally against Stalin (because like you mention Stalin was not an angel either).
He forgot one thing, love for the "motherland" goes deeper than loyalties to any particular leader/party (ie communists/stalin), funny that Hitler overlooked this because one of his own generals (Rommel) loved Germany but didn't like the Nazis.[/quote:9626d]

actually germany had all the oil it needed from the oil refineries in ploeste, romania. hitler invaded russia because he was a dumbfuck.

[quote="{1CAB}ThiRTeeN":22894]Well I was supprised that The Counter-Sniper mentioned Canada being part of the War effort. I know some U.S. history classes that don't teach anything about Canada in WWII. They wer in operation: Overlord for christ's sake!!![/quote:22894]

bullshit, canadians in ww2 were nothing but bullet magnets. the only countries that made a difference in ww2 were germany, soviet union, japan, china, and the US. the allies didnt have shit unless OUR factories made them.

Yeah the Nazi is very stupid biggrin:

madmartagen your an ass "bullet magnets"? you are the bigest moron on earth what about poland,croatia,ukraine what were they and all other countries ww2? useless vegtables? You really piss me off

Hey Go read some books. You don't know Shit about ww2. You Missed Italy,France,U.K,and Poland. Sure Canada did not do much but they were a team but i guess there no U.S.A in team you rascit pig leran your fucking history.[/quote]

Well the U.S. in gerneral only care about what THEIR millitary did.

People, People, everyone did their part, the only reason why us, Americans, think that we did everything is because of hollywood and ignorant teachers/textbook makers, i mean for christ sake, Werent there like 500,000 peeps land on the beaches of Normandy On D-Day, lets see how many WERENT US, hmmm, like 275,000 probably, oh yeah the axis was in a 7 front war, atlantic, France, japan, china, italy, russia, and africa, the japanese may as well have been on their own, they probably got Shit from germany and Italy. The U.S, Canada, and Australia Were a huge factor in WW2. And mexico almost turned on us in WW1, fyi. Ahh, i thinks thats all i have to preach about.. so yeah. Wait no about hitler, he was the craziest and most satanically insane person in europe, Id say stalin was a hair behind. At least he didnt want total domination did he? oOo: zooka: flamethrower: flamethrower: flamethrower:

Hitler was an asshole, period. He was militarily stupid as well as the most evil dumbass in history. He had good generals who were responsible for Germany's early victories, but when "Der Furhrer" started calling the shots, Germany started losing. He got his ass kicked by the Allies, get over it! FREEDOM WON! USA, Canada, UK, France, Poland, Australia, (there's too many allied nations to mention here, there was around 50 by the end of the war). Anybody that believes that Nazi bullshit should do the world a favor and follow their leader and stick a pistol in their mouth, pull the trigger, and blow their damn brains out!

If he was so great, why did he and his "master race" get their ass whipped?

If the western allies hadn't carried out Overlord, either Stalin would have sued for peace or the Red Army would have liberated western Europe, putting it under a Communist regime almost as bad as the Nazis. For the Canadians in Overlord, if they and the Brits had not guarded our left flank and widened the invasion area, the Americans would have been driven back because the Germans could have concentrated on Omaha and Utah, and if the US had not taken Omaha and Utah so the allies could get Cherbourg, the supply line would have dried up. It was a team effort. Neither US or UK or Canada could have done it alone.

I may be arrogant, but you're stupid, you Fascist dickhead!

The Soviets could of beat the Germans alone but it would of taken a very long time

I was play frontline and this german was running i shot him he ended up sliding into some barrels that blew up the rest of his group. Talk about live together die together on that one.

Let me set the record straight.

Hitler was a politcal genius, but a HORRIBLE military stratigist.
He was both the savior and the curse of the Nazi party.

Hitler was very smart in some ways, and extremely dumb in others. For example, when he invaded Poland, he basically got Britain and France to declare war on him, and the rest of the world to sympathize with the Allies. In addition, when he attacked Russia, he had to focus his military attention on two fronts instead of one. The Battle of Stalingrad alone was the worst military battle in history, with literally millions of soldiers dying there.

Hitler was also a very poor military leader. He made bold attempts at seiges and blockades when he could've concentrated his forces elsewhere.

Overall though, the Nazi thing aside, I have a great deal of respect for the German military. It was basically them against the world, and they did a pretty good job of putting up a fight.

to the guy that started the topic...

maybe the nazi said THE HOUSE IS CLEAN instead of De Houst es Clein!

becuase his eyes got bigger the DINNER PLATES, EH? EH? EH?!


lol just kidding

[quote="Punk_Bitch":c868f]Yes the Russian's did break through, but remember the U-boat U505? US took control of it and got the codes broken so they could find and destroy the Hitler U-Boats (over 100 of them). That was a major part. And the Omaha Beach breeching played a roll too.....Germany got flanked from both sides. BTY the German sub U505 is about 35 miles north of my hometown in Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Neat exhibit, a must to see when in Chicago.[/quote:c868f]

yes very awesome exhibit

Never knew Canadians were a race..but I guess he is racist? Well, no. I think that Mexico was the real power house in WW2. biggrin:
