Debatable.
Goerings massive overspending on the German armed forces casued the Economoy to overheat. (Only with newly conquered and millions of slaves was Albert Speer able to sort out the econmy in 1941)
The extra year would have enabled the UK a hige amount of spending, it had already gone up by over 20% in the 1938/39.
That's all I was saying :x Do you think there's no scenario in which he could've won? Or at least held onto what he had already grabbed?Debatable.

I like history, I have done a huge amount of reading on history in general,which has lead to reading several dozen books on world warII. As for hitlers fatal flaw it was not going into russia,or the time frame. It was the fact that he tried fighting on multiple fronts. If he had stuck with the plan and quickly ate up peices of land on singular fronts,he may have possibly won the war.
And do not think he would have not invaded russia. he pretty much outlined his plan in meinkampf long before he rose to power,and his whole idea was to take the russian steppes for german expansion. He started war with the west to distract them and try to keep them out of his russian war. That was his flaw. And one more reason all these people who say he was a great leader have no idea what they are talking about.

But 14 year olds are the biggest procrastinators in the world. I still remember the night before the deadline, almost the entire class was sitting in the computer lab doing some "final changes", that's what we called it. :P
Great uncles: one was a Parl Habor servivor the other was a Iwo Jima Surviver (Japanese POW for a year). I also worked with two differnt WWII vets, one was a P51 Pilot and the other was an infrantry over in Germany. Then I studied it a little back in College.
[QUOTE="aaronmullan"]Mr.Withers! My 3rd year history teacherhorgen123This poster here, you would be amazed to learn how much he knows about WWII :o Hah! I remember how a trench works, that's about it :P
School has taught me the most about WWII. TV has been a close second. Videogames don't really teach me anything about the war. Shad0ki11The History channel, Call of Duty, and a little research of my own. Although, i didnt actually know what CoD was based off of until i actually did some research.
My dad. He said Germany would have beaten the Allies if Hitler would have been more pacient.BrainSplatter89Proberbly true, i know from my time playing RTS that two fronts is about 5x as harder to fight than one front.
my own research taught me the most about WWII. or rather laid out the real stories behind who was who and why it happened
Finding out about the Bushs involvement back then and how Prescott was more or less the banker and supplier of weapons for the 'Nazi' movement was pretty much an eye opener into the activities undertaken by the Bush family
