Germany could have easily won that war hitler was an idiot
statlin didn't even know what artillery was like 10million soldiers just cut off with no food or anything running up against machine guns with no medics nothing
hitlers army invaded stalingrad and they would have taken it had they brought some winter gear
also everyone in ukraine was still pissed at statlin when the nazi's arrive so what do they do? they start purging the populace of foreigners turning ukraines allegience back to russia not to mention all of their hard laborers they could have fed instead of starved
nazism actually killed Germany not the other way around... though they did kill a lot of people too

Oh, no doubt.
hitler was a moron of historical proportions and too few realize this.
Just read about his command structure and how twisted and confusing it was to the point that it bogged down any military decision-making.
Or the fact that he invaded Russia in the first place b/c of his racist view of Slavs and hatred of communism, when if he simply focused on the Western front, he could've overpowered Britain before U.S. could even get involved.

He was a complete fucking moron, but because he had a powerful German war machine (here's a tip: Germany was a dominant military power for the past 100 years or so by that point, they didn't just suddenly become so strong) and some talented generals, he's often thought of as some sort of evil genius or great conquerer. It's disturbing and sad.
