As most inventions could not have been possible without a previous invention, the turning point of WWII could be argued was Hitler’s decision to declare war on the United States in December of 1941. Ever wonder what would have happened if he had betrayed the Japanese, faked horror over the cowardly attack on Pearl Harbor and declared war on Japan instead?


Early on, Britain was on the brink of defeat, Churchill was oiling his personal shotgun and German landing crafts were being assembled on the French coast when Hitler stupidly redirected his Luftwaffe from attacking the RAF to civilian targets. The RAF managed to rebuild, fortify and make a remarkable comeback in the Battle of Britain. Undoubtedly, Doolittle learned from Hitler’s mistake and never turned his back on the German fighter plane.


Stalingrad was another glaring mistake by Hitler, but hardly a turning point. Unless you believe the Communist propaganda, it was more like Hitler 0, Stalin 0 and the Russian winter 1.


North Africa? North Africa? It would appear that Germany and Britain found a non-strategic no man’s land in which to conduct training exercises for a future conflict, I fail to see what the fuss was all about.


At least I’ve finally found commonality between the English, French and Russians. They still cling to the foolish misguided notion that the United States wasn’t responsible for the German, Italian and Japanese defeats in WWII. Blind brain washed fools one and all!
