he got tricked by britian and america.... the allies made several BLOW UP tanks and put them on the easter front of England. Hitler's spy planes saw them and prepared for an invasion by Britian and failed to guard the Normandy beach...which allowed for easy access for us and allies, on D-DAY.

Hitler sucks anyway,

Mainly invading Russia really. And he should have listened to his generals more perrhaps, but his generals thought that Britian and France would invade Germany if Hitler remilitarised the Rhineland. when Hitler did it nothing happened, at all. so the generals can't have been that trust worthy.

no. those people still helped the nazis cos of a feelgood factor and genral support. the facts are:
-hitler took personal control of the army so often & he had no idea how to run a war
-internal strife in the admin system didn't help
-blitzkrieg tactics wouldn't work on the defence
-vital succsesses were not followed up

Manstein was good on the defensive; I think a more crucial detail was the control of the army that Hitler exerted, as you say - it was the deciding factor in the failure of the blitzkrieg on Russia.

Hitler went phsyco and wouldn't allow any troops to retreat, so they all had to sit there and get blown up by the Russians

If hippies were around they would have convinced Hitler that "Love is all you need" and he would have danced around with flowers in his hair and hugging all the Jews

I don't think flowers in his hair and flared trousers would have suited him. Not that anything would have suited him. Maybe that was the problem, he invaded Poland because he was butt ugly.

Hitler looked so goddam cool. Nice hair, cool suits, amazing symbology, a brilliant salute and a 'tache that would make Stalin jealous.

no wonder Hitler got elected. forget about the economic situation, or hatred of the treaty of versailes and wiemar government, they voted Nazi cus Hitler had style.
