| Response - Biggest mistake of ww2
This is a response to the "Biggest mistake of WW2 question that I ran across on Google. (Brothers in Arms site)
Any comments??
yeah im with the rest of them. i think the worst thing he done was declare war on russia, after all, it was in russia that the germans recieved their first crushing defeat. i dnt think hitler unleashed anything when it comes to america, remember their hearts were in it to beat japan more than germany. and remember, the americans had, and still do have a habbit of killing thier own people, after all, they shot down more british pilots than the germans did. maybe britain would have been better off alone, maybe all they need was sometime to gather their thoughts, their strenght, but perhaps mst importantly their morale. thats just my thought.
"We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing".

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."
(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
