I respect the german soldiers because contrary to popular belief they fought for Germany not nazism a lot of them didnt believe in nazi ideals like Rommel who refused to obey hitlers criminal orders like executing free French POWs
@DonMeaker not everyone in this time of ww2 had fun by killing people, how you see. in my oppinion stalingrad 43` was the most cruel, brutal and sadly place of war in this time. i cant put it in words how awful it was, to fight there. either, they were killed by russians or they freezed to death. it was hopeless. my grandfather (we are germans) told me about it. he had more luck....
@TheMeAgainst We have to keep in mind that the Nazis began by killing Germans. They ended killing Germans. In the middle they killed Spaniards, Jews, French, Belgians, Russians, Ukranians, Poles, Finns, Canadians, Australians,Norweigians, Italians, Brits, Americans, Netherlanders, Danes. and others. Most German soldiers, were conscripted, forced by perverted law to fight a horrific war for a terribble cause. And of those Germanscaptured at Stalingrad, few survived the POW of the Soviets.

Or people at war. Now if u had a guy that wants to kill u and would shoot you if he had a rifle and u saw a chance to shoot him what would u do? Let him get a pistol and then start shooting. If so u are very dumb.
@Killjoy45 Realistic movie would be short, with the Russians mostly dying in the first few frames. Most of the Germans would die during the movie, spaced out.
That doesn't make for a good story, so they make crap up.
Well, actually all of the protagonists died in this movie and very many others.
You think the story wasnt good in this movie? Well, thats your opinion, but I think this movie shows very clearly what war actually was and how normal soldiers saw it.
There isnt hero story, just bunch of guys trying to stay alive. Very good film!
@DonMeaker Just because the soviets didnt have good strategies and tactics for the most part (steroetype)
That doesnt mean they werent still people that could think, they wouldnt actually send everyone straight at the enemy right out of nowhere, besides the russians were defending the factory in this movie, wtf would they run at the enemy for? think first and dont be stupid, i could only imagine you poking your head up out of your fox hole because you have been told russians cant shoot for sh**
@JesusofCalgary Soviet technique was to make plans at a higher level: squad attacks planned at company, company attacks planned at regiment, division attacks planned at Army group. That prevented individual initiative. The Soviets lost over a million second lieutenants in that war, an entire generation of the best and brightest. How sad.
@JesusofCalgary Of course the Soviets had people who could think. They also had Communists who thought most people's lives were worthless. On the way to the Communist utopia it was a good year that a million people didn't die, killed by their government. Soviets did their planning the way they did because they thought it more effective. Sometimes it was. Sometimes it wasn't. "Having done what men could, they suffered what men must."
hitler would of done better if he just cut the river volga and not attacked stalingrad,his move to the caucausas was also a bad strategy,if he learned anything he could of held his lines for the winter and massacred the soviet offensives
This movie is really good. It's realistic, dark and brutal. It shows the reality of war, not the Hollywood bullshit we often see where one man takes down hundreds of enemies and once.
I think that German was wearing a cloth (or similar material) cover for his helmet, a standard M35 I believe(correct me if im wrong). But it sort of does look like a modern helmet with the cover on.
it wasnt a para helmet. it was really hard for regulars to get those helmets. some tankunits got some cause it was possible to wear them AND use the eadio as well. that was not possible with regular army helmets
u r defintely an idiot and a traitor,or probably one of those immigrants that have managed to sneak your way in and doesnt respect the land that feeds and sustains them
brito-american supplies were "crucial only in 1942. From then on, they were a good help in letting the Soviet industry concentrate on tanks and aircraft production instead of making the canned goods the US provided, which caused stomach illness by the way. read about it some more before making comments
When my dad was growing up (1959+) he told me that all they learned was the "heroic landing at D-Day" about WWII. The Soviet Union was NEVER mentioned. The schools treated Russia like it didn't exist.
Funny to read all this "if USA didn't enter the war, we'd all speak German now" bullshit. But thats the way they teach 'em in US schools, so they grow up really believing in this. The simple truth is - USA lost 365 thousands in dead and wounded in whole WW2, Europe and Pacific. Taking over Berlin ALONE took lives of 300.000 Soviet soldiers and officers. 87.8% of German casualties - Eastern front.
u r an ignorant fool,u r ignoring ecnomic aspects as welll as the fact that 2 million german soldiers were fighting us in italy and in western front,to think the russians could overcoke 2 million EXTRA germans is inconceivable given the HUGE losses they had suffered
All you want to do is give USA more credit about the war and yet bash the Soviet contributions. We destroyed 80% of the Third Reich...you didn't even come close to that number you stupid stubborn american.
well actually the russian is right. as a german i can tell you. that germany still is obsessed with the eastern front. not with the normandy shit. americans came pretty late and the germans shifted most of their power to fight the russians which were considered the more important target. yet still americans think they were in this war alone. wake up! arrived 1944 for real and fought an allready semibeaten german army which only send what they could spare from the eastern front to fight you.
The Us fought against Germany since 1941, remember the battle of the atlantic, the landings in africa 1942, the fight in Tunisia 1943, the battle of italy 43-45. The bombing operations against Ploesti, the oilfields, defeating the german airforce and destroying the factories, veen if it didn´t work completly, it took a large toll of germany´s power. Have you ever heard of Lend-Lease? If you see the logistics of the Red Army you will see that most of the trucks in 43-45 were US-made
All of the battles in the area of, oh, I dunno, Africa/Asia were commanded by Brits, used American soldiers as cannon fodder, and then sent the Canadians in to clean up the mess, jeez get your history right.
ha lol....thats right...but just remember that Germany had better Technology and so on and on and on..they were just not enough people to win the war...but be happy about that cause i donht want to live in Nazi fortress europe!!
we gave the soviets money, weapons, tanks,and equipment, so I think the US did more than enough to take down the third reich, if there was no invasion on the western front, all the german tanks, men, planes, and equipment that was used to fight the allies in the west would have been used against the russians
well I dont think russia helped the US in the pacific. unless you call their declaration of war on japan help, it came three days after WE dropped the Atom bomb on japan, then that same month japan surrenderd
First of all, the Pacific War was like a small sandbox compared to the Eastern Front. Second, we occupied Manchuria and were one of the factors to cause Hirohito to surrender.
I'll give you that, Japan had no chance against the US, USSR, and UK, but when we dropped the Atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Japs, didnt know if we had any more and they didnt want to risk one being dropped on Tokyo or any other city, and the russians didnt have to worry about using their navy to the extent that the US used against japan and we also had to use the army/marines to invade islands, the germans and russians didnt have to fight over an entire ocean with islands in it
That's again American narrow-mindedness... Soviets would sooner or later defeat Germany - because USSR overpassed Germany in every terms: resources, manpower, will to fight to repel the agression... And remember, Soviets overcame Germans on all battles suing THEIR OWN ARMS, not American, or British. All Soviets benefitted was American food.
no they didnt,in 1941-42,the soviets had lost 80% of their industrial power it was lend and lease that helped them survive,even in 1945 90% of vehicles like studebakers and jeeps used by the reds was american made,america also aupplied huge amounts of food and ammunition to the soviets,given the lethality of the german army(the german army suffered only 1/3) of the deaths it caused,it is foolish to think russia could have won alone or with brit help
You might as well put a cork in your mouth dadserse...too much shit is pouring from your mouth. I think you want to make us laugh at saying that by 1945, 90% of the Russian weaponary was American. You might as well say you US was the first in space, built the AK47 and crumbled the Roman Empire. By the way, the Soviets never lost 80% of their industrial power in 1942. When the Germans invaded, factories and industries were moved behind the Ural Mountains. From there, came the majority of supplies
shut up moron,i am quoting figs from your own russian official history as well as sources like vasilevsky and zhukovs memoirs,go read a book before you shoot your mouth,you seem to know nothing about your own historry much less that of the war
Alright. I have recently argued with many american hussies and they say the exact same thing. "you don't know shit" or "go read a history book stupid commie". whatever. live in your world.
yes, 90% of all soviet weapons where american munitions, but the few the soviets had.
and the AK47 was designed from the StG44.
and the same man that designed the StG44 (schmeiser)worked at the same kalasnikov factory as mikhail kalasnikov after the war in 1949, where he perfected the AK47 and fixed
all the snags it had for field use, something mikhail could not do.
Actually its not. the only "copied" thing is the idea of ammo - shortened rifle round. The mechanics are different. For example: the rotating bolt (AK) instead of a tilting bolt (StG), magazine output and some other things. The AK was also based on the Russian assault rifle, Federov which in fact was the first used assault rifle in the world. And I don't which part of your ass you pulled out the bullshit about schmeiser himself working for the Russians and the "Facts" about american lend leases.
That is false. For example the PPSh-41 was largely copied from WWII's best SMG, the Suomi M/31 submachinegun. Its drum magazine for example was a direct copy of this Finnish SMG's very reliable magazine.
besides ideology, Germany at the time was the most powerful nation in the world for military knowledge and equipment. For sure Stalin would have not resisted so much if the Allies did not support him with supplies and far better equipment in the beginning, and for sure the entrace of USA in the war turned the tide. At least for the numbers and industry production.
u r the moron! in 1944 well after D-day-on the northern and central fronts the germans were still in russia,they still occupied whole balkans,poland,baltic states as well as greece,there is no WAY without american ecnomic aid AND the western front as well as americas effort in defeating the german AF and navy,russia could NOT have won
Americans entered the war when the outcome was clear...but looks like you, like any other brainwashed american patriot, do not want to know the truth. btw was it USA who defeated Napoleon in 1812?
the germans were fighting in MOSCOW,all of the baltic states,ukraine,belarus,poland and most of russia were being occupied by germany,5 miilion prisoners and 3 million rusian soldiers were dead-this is all symptoms of victory
"...the soldiers didn't know the jews were killed"
many were asked what they knew about the holocaust. they said they knew they were transported away (i mean, you could definately see it on the streets) but they didn't know what happened to them.
if you ask yourself why they didnÄt care about them to be brought away....well...it was war...i think you have a bigger problem if you have to fear that your house will be bombed or if you're a soldier that has to fight the soviets...
Well - I do not feel you contradict me, you add something. History is like viewing an obkect in 3D. Hitler began with Verseilles, nowadays we know it. Still, even Verseilles was incorrect, doesn't conclude a world war had to be waged including the holocaust. I mean - take back Rhineland, restore the order, finish. Out of an inferiour complex to go for a world power was a bit too much or simply madness or a psychosis. That is ill, that was ill.
i see you're american :) to be honest, i'm fine with history. usa is the world power and i'm fine with that. germany lost two wars and is nowadays europe's richest country. we seriously can't complain.
although i think germany should concentrate more on its military, like the usa (even france has a bigger military) - due to our historic duty to prevent genocide (darfur etc)
The single soldier cannot be blamed for having committed war crimes. Only a few knew as well as a few of the people in Germany knew. Out of the 6 million departed jews came 200.000 from Germany. Under the circumstance that there was no free press it is hard to imagine that the holocaust was spread out.
"The single soldier cannot be blamed for having committed war crimes"
that's what i'm trying to say :)
"The Wehrmacht provided the entire logistics"
it was a tool to reach the jews, you're right. but first of all hitler wanted to create his so called weltreich with its capital germania (berlin) which had way more space (lebensraum) - that's what they were fighting for. (adolf was some crazy bollock, yes)
What if the USA is losing its world power strength because they kind of reach as well for the stars? And what if the US cannot afford the two front war - one outside one inside? What if the US is trapped? What do you think? How stable is the US really?
China is not the problem. It'll grow fast but the inside development will not grow with it. The US faces - in my eyes - a self destruction. Bin Laden layed out a trap, the US stepped in it. The US can bring up a shattered Europe but an Europe will not be able to help a falling US. The US is like Germany - a force that has to stand still and only move when it is called or necessary. Strong is who manages the powers around oneself. Strong is not who shows its powers.
"The US is like Germany - a force that has to stand still and only move when it is called or necessary" - that may be right and good for the usa - but not good for the world. no other country has so much power to act for western interests.
"China is not the problem. It'll grow fast but the inside development will not grow with it."
- but imagine if they get the idea of war being a sexy alternative to enforce THEIR interests! or of war being a sexy alternative to create THEIR new weltreich!
Ja - but how? China is still busy inviting foreign architects and copy foreign products. It can buy up western componies and gain strength through that. China is a big baby but with a remarkable culture and wisdom.
...but they already have trouble with india about nepal etc. they already want to gain power in africa etc. believe me, china doesn't only want to raise its economy....
Bismarck hadnot created a world power. He fought 3 wars in order to unify Germany. After that he had no further territorial claims. Germany needed to be unified in order not to drown within the European powers. The 3 wars were agains Denmark, Austria & France.
It is not idiotic at all to link the Wehrmacht with the holocaust. The Wehrmacht provided the entire logistics. If Rommel would have won in Africa, concentration camps were already planned.
Tough guy you - WW1 started because of this emperor Wilhelm 2nd who had losened Bismarcks military treaties within Europe and the fact that the European nations were very nationalistic. A German farted in Paris and France would attack Germany - a French pissed in the streets of Berlin and Germany would declare war on France. Very hot-blooded atmosphere back then.
WW1 was because an unsmart change of Bimarcks thorough worked out settings after 1871. WW2 began because of an unfair Versailles treaty, a lack of identification with the Weimar Republic and an economic depression. Hitler as a spounge had a feeling for what is necessary to heal the wounded German soul, blamed the jews, brought up the econmy on making depths & therefore had to wage war against Russia to balance the national budget.
The Wehrmacht was the backbone of Hitlers power. In the first case in the tradition of the Prussian army, in the second case treated to get back up and get through the holocaust.
In the end Germania should have been born as a super power, Russias resources financing it. In the end the world is overthrown and everybody speaks German, producing wonderful blond haired blue-eyed kids with leather-skin and steel brains. Wonderful vision.
You don't take in the wounded German soul, the lack of order for the young men who needed a father figure which the Hitler-system provided. All in all to work on something big and great, the 1.000-jähriges Reich - in the end to have destroyed a 1.000 years of the Reich with a seperation f the country for 40 years.
"treated to get back up and get through the holocaust."
- i don't understand that? ;(
"In the end Germania should have been born as a super power, Russias resources financing it. In the end the world is overthrown and everybody speaks German, producing wonderful blond haired blue-eyed kids with leather-skin and steel brains"
- yup, as i said: "adolf was some crazy bollock, yes"
The SA was only to get to power. Hitler got rid of Roehm (you know that of course) because the SA was just a bunch of bumps. The SS was the political arm. The Wehrmacht was the actual force, creating the space for instance within the concentration camps could be build. And of course the Wehrmacht also executed killings but has not run the camps.
yup i really know that :) röhm wanted to get the reichswehr togther with the sa, so hitler thought he wants to become too powerful for him ;)
the wehrmacht was first of all, as i said, the force to create his weltreich. and yes, they we're a tool to reach new jews. and yes, the did shootings in russia.
your dumb reaction makes as much sense s that the indians will ask the white americans to leave the country or the aboriginals ask the whites to leave australia.
th russians raped the germans before they killed them?
who do you think started this mess called WO II?
and the wehrmacht were innocent in your eyes?they killed so many russians.man,u should be shot right in place for saying stuff like you do.
Calm down, I think you are funny. But what is your point? The Wehrmacht was not full of nazi-believers, a lot of them were though. Under the shield of the Wehrmacht the SS had exectuted the holocaust. Russian soldiers have raped - on command order - German women, yes, after having entered Germany. I have maybe just misunderstood your comment down the page. Still you're funny with your "pls go home and die".
SS is not Wehrmacht but the Wehrmacht had committed war crimes. Basically the German general staff was not anti-nazi. In the end of the war the noob-soldiers were very nazi indoctrinated young kids, the Waffen-SS was anyway. 42 people still believed. The war was a blood rush in the head for the Germans. And I think they were very, very arrogant in their believe to be a superiour race. This tooth had to be drawn.
As long it is interesting for others to listen to our conversation...
"Under the shield of the Wehrmacht" the holocaust took place. No Wehrmacht, no holocaust.
I do not hate neo-nazis although it is difficult to approach them. I think it is wrong to hate anyway.
The whole III. Reich still has an attraction for people all over the world. Why is that? Answer: Many, many reasons. It has do to with the evilness, the develishness and the paradoxy that the out of the evil comes the good.
And it was a scream by the German people also for unity. Germany is a country in which it is not certain that it is held together. Different states within, all powerfull for themselves (Bavaria & Prussia i.e.), different dialects, customs.
The 2nd Reich was called out by Bismarck in 1871. In the republic of 1919 people felt not home & couldn't deal with the democracy. They've wanted the Reich back, the deepness of the mythology and their history. Hitler has sensed that and promised "the healing". Something like that.
well you know alot about history ... that is good :)
but you make some mistakes:
"The whole III. Reich...attraction for people...Why...?"
1. because it changed the world (cold war, usa/udssr etc)
2. admiration for an army that conquered the whole continent in only some months...
"No Wehrmacht, no holocaust."
the wehrmacht fought, because hitler told them to do for his plans. they didn't fight for the holocaust, i do even affirm the soldiers didn't know the jews were killed.
"They've wanted the Reich back, the deepness of the mythology and their history"
not really. bismarck created 1871 a new wolrd power. after france's ultra-harsh "peace"-treaty of versailles after ww1 (i suggest it was the main reason for hitler's rise) and due to the global economic crisis in the 30ies voters were attracted to political extremists like hitler.
the republic of weimar never really had a chance handling the conditions the french had given to them.
and if you really had to, you could have transported the jews to palestina(alive) or some place like that.there is no excuse for killing those people.even when you don't like them at all you don't do that.
renato pls go and die or at least learn some history you fucking homo-princess. noone denies the holocaust and the wehrmacht had nothing to do with it! yes the germans killed the russians, but the russians raped the germans before they killed them! who is worse now?
Monty, what are you talking about?Pls go home and die is funny - so you are saying the Russian soldiers have raped the German soldiers? I mean, there were no women in the German army so you have to mean men-sex. Do you have more of your pillow biting theories?
wow you truly are ignorant, please try and make certain parrellels between nazi germany and the effects of their actions with the current us govt and their one insignificant war that has cost no where near the amount of lives in almost 5 years as all of germany did in about the same time period, and at least in the US, they have something called a "regime change" that is inevitable every 4-8 years, unless an assinsation occurs, then its sometime shorter...
GermanicReich, you have disturbing fantasys about Nazi-Germanys plans. I am german and i am sure you aren't. I think you are american because the people there don't get an objective view told by their teachers (or even a view, american histroy class = only american history). Don't be angry you others....but you have to admit this!
i think they were - and are - as savages as any other people lol. Human likes to say they are God´s creation, but they are only animals and a barbarian civilization - or civilizations.
I am glad they all died there.Both the Germans and the Russians.Too bad America and what was left of Germany didn't hook up after the war to take on Russia.The whole Cold war could have been averted.
I fought in Viet Nam Buddy.I know 1st hand what war is. It's Hell. But ,I still stand by my comment.The cold war could have been averted and millions would not have been killed by communist creeps if we had taken Russia when we had the army there to do it.
With the Soviets? No..your war was against the Jews.If it was the Soviets why invade Poland and all of Western Europe? Why make a deal with Stalin to split Poland?It was a war so all the Jews in Europe could be murdered...that's why.Every Nazi then and now should be either killed or in prison.
I respect the german soldiers because contrary to popular belief they fought for Germany not nazism a lot of them didnt believe in nazi ideals like Rommel who refused to obey hitlers criminal orders like executing free French POWs

They have both the regular Stahlhelm, just one with a cloth cover. The modern design copies the older German model, that's why it is similar.

I think that German was wearing a cloth (or similar material) cover for his helmet, a standard M35 I believe(correct me if im wrong). But it sort of does look like a modern helmet with the cover on.

Funny to read all this "if USA didn't enter the war, we'd all speak German now" bullshit. But thats the way they teach 'em in US schools, so they grow up really believing in this. The simple truth is - USA lost 365 thousands in dead and wounded in whole WW2, Europe and Pacific. Taking over Berlin ALONE took lives of 300.000 Soviet soldiers and officers. 87.8% of German casualties - Eastern front.

The bombing operations against Ploesti, the oilfields, defeating the german airforce and destroying the factories, veen if it didn´t work completly, it took a large toll of germany´s power. Have you ever heard of Lend-Lease? If you see the logistics of the Red Army you will see that most of the trucks in 43-45 were US-made

That's again American narrow-mindedness... Soviets would sooner or later defeat Germany - because USSR overpassed Germany in every terms: resources, manpower, will to fight to repel the agression... And remember, Soviets overcame Germans on all battles suing THEIR OWN ARMS, not American, or British. All Soviets benefitted was American food.

no they didnt,in 1941-42,the soviets had lost 80% of their industrial power it was lend and lease that helped them survive,even in 1945 90% of vehicles like studebakers and jeeps used by the reds was american made,america also aupplied huge amounts of food and ammunition to the soviets,given the lethality of the german army(the german army suffered only 1/3) of the deaths it caused,it is foolish to think russia could have won alone or with brit help

You might as well put a cork in your mouth dadserse...too much shit is pouring from your mouth. I think you want to make us laugh at saying that by 1945, 90% of the Russian weaponary was American. You might as well say you US was the first in space, built the AK47 and crumbled the Roman Empire. By the way, the Soviets never lost 80% of their industrial power in 1942. When the Germans invaded, factories and industries were moved behind the Ural Mountains. From there, came the majority of supplies

yes, 90% of all soviet weapons where american munitions, but the few the soviets had.
and the AK47 was designed from the StG44.
and the same man that designed the StG44 (schmeiser)worked at the same kalasnikov factory as mikhail kalasnikov after the war in 1949, where he perfected the AK47 and fixed
all the snags it had for field use, something mikhail could not do.

Actually its not. the only "copied" thing is the idea of ammo - shortened rifle round. The mechanics are different. For example: the rotating bolt (AK) instead of a tilting bolt (StG), magazine output and some other things. The AK was also based on the Russian assault rifle, Federov which in fact was the first used assault rifle in the world. And I don't which part of your ass you pulled out the bullshit about schmeiser himself working for the Russians and the "Facts" about american lend leases.

monty2288 4 years ago
Well - I do not feel you contradict me, you add something. History is like viewing an obkect in 3D. Hitler began with Verseilles, nowadays we know it. Still, even Verseilles was incorrect, doesn't conclude a world war had to be waged including the holocaust. I mean - take back Rhineland, restore the order, finish. Out of an inferiour complex to go for a world power was a bit too much or simply madness or a psychosis. That is ill, that was ill.
easystreets70 4 years ago
i see you're american :) to be honest, i'm fine with history. usa is the world power and i'm fine with that. germany lost two wars and is nowadays europe's richest country. we seriously can't complain.
although i think germany should concentrate more on its military, like the usa (even france has a bigger military) - due to our historic duty to prevent genocide (darfur etc)
monty2288 4 years ago
The single soldier cannot be blamed for having committed war crimes. Only a few knew as well as a few of the people in Germany knew. Out of the 6 million departed jews came 200.000 from Germany. Under the circumstance that there was no free press it is hard to imagine that the holocaust was spread out.
easystreets70 4 years ago
"The single soldier cannot be blamed for having committed war crimes"
that's what i'm trying to say :)
"The Wehrmacht provided the entire logistics"
it was a tool to reach the jews, you're right. but first of all hitler wanted to create his so called weltreich with its capital germania (berlin) which had way more space (lebensraum) - that's what they were fighting for. (adolf was some crazy bollock, yes)

China is not the problem. It'll grow fast but the inside development will not grow with it. The US faces - in my eyes - a self destruction. Bin Laden layed out a trap, the US stepped in it. The US can bring up a shattered Europe but an Europe will not be able to help a falling US. The US is like Germany - a force that has to stand still and only move when it is called or necessary. Strong is who manages the powers around oneself. Strong is not who shows its powers.
easystreets70 4 years ago

Bismarck hadnot created a world power. He fought 3 wars in order to unify Germany. After that he had no further territorial claims. Germany needed to be unified in order not to drown within the European powers. The 3 wars were agains Denmark, Austria & France.
It is not idiotic at all to link the Wehrmacht with the holocaust. The Wehrmacht provided the entire logistics. If Rommel would have won in Africa, concentration camps were already planned.
easystreets70 4 years ago
"Bismarck hadnot created a world power...."
yes, you are right, i know that, and yes he created the world power. that is why ww1 even started.
monty2288 4 years ago
Tough guy you - WW1 started because of this emperor Wilhelm 2nd who had losened Bismarcks military treaties within Europe and the fact that the European nations were very nationalistic. A German farted in Paris and France would attack Germany - a French pissed in the streets of Berlin and Germany would declare war on France. Very hot-blooded atmosphere back then.
easystreets70 4 years ago
"WW1 started because of this emperor Wilhelm"
- not 100% correct
"the fact that the European nations were very nationalistic" - that's correct ;)
bismarck was a genious in diplomacy, wilhelm wasnt...but you can't blame him all alone...
monty2288 4 years ago
So I conclude:
Politics is facts and psychology.
WW1 was because an unsmart change of Bimarcks thorough worked out settings after 1871. WW2 began because of an unfair Versailles treaty, a lack of identification with the Weimar Republic and an economic depression. Hitler as a spounge had a feeling for what is necessary to heal the wounded German soul, blamed the jews, brought up the econmy on making depths & therefore had to wage war against Russia to balance the national budget.
easystreets70 4 years ago
Conclusion cont'd:
The Wehrmacht was the backbone of Hitlers power. In the first case in the tradition of the Prussian army, in the second case treated to get back up and get through the holocaust.
In the end Germania should have been born as a super power, Russias resources financing it. In the end the world is overthrown and everybody speaks German, producing wonderful blond haired blue-eyed kids with leather-skin and steel brains. Wonderful vision.
easystreets70 4 years ago
"WW1 was because an unsmart change of Bimarcks thorough worked out settings after 1871"

- no, the weltreich germanien was HIS idea. germans needed a strong man for the so called "revision des versailler vertrags"
monty2288 4 years ago
You don't take in the wounded German soul, the lack of order for the young men who needed a father figure which the Hitler-system provided. All in all to work on something big and great, the 1.000-jähriges Reich - in the end to have destroyed a 1.000 years of the Reich with a seperation f the country for 40 years.
easystreets70 4 years ago

monty2288 4 years ago
The SA was only to get to power. Hitler got rid of Roehm (you know that of course) because the SA was just a bunch of bumps. The SS was the political arm. The Wehrmacht was the actual force, creating the space for instance within the concentration camps could be build. And of course the Wehrmacht also executed killings but has not run the camps.
easystreets70 4 years ago
yup i really know that :) röhm wanted to get the reichswehr togther with the sa, so hitler thought he wants to become too powerful for him ;)
the wehrmacht was first of all, as i said, the force to create his weltreich. and yes, they we're a tool to reach new jews. and yes, the did shootings in russia.

Calm down, I think you are funny. But what is your point? The Wehrmacht was not full of nazi-believers, a lot of them were though.

SS is not Wehrmacht but the Wehrmacht had committed war crimes. Basically the German general staff was not anti-nazi. In the end of the war the noob-soldiers were very nazi indoctrinated young kids, the Waffen-SS was anyway. 42 people still believed. The war was a blood rush in the head for the Germans. And I think they were very, very arrogant in their believe to be a superiour race. This tooth had to be drawn.

The 2nd Reich was called out by Bismarck in 1871. In the republic of 1919 people felt not home & couldn't deal with the democracy. They've wanted the Reich back, the deepness of the mythology and their history. Hitler has sensed that and promised "the healing". Something like that.

2. admiration for an army that conquered the whole continent in only some months...
"No Wehrmacht, no holocaust."
the wehrmacht fought, because hitler told them to do for his plans. they didn't fight for the holocaust, i do even affirm the soldiers didn't know the jews were killed.
monty2288 4 years ago
"They've wanted the Reich back, the deepness of the mythology and their history"
not really. bismarck created 1871 a new wolrd power. after france's ultra-harsh "peace"-treaty of versailles after ww1 (i suggest it was the main reason for hitler's rise) and due to the global economic crisis in the 30ies voters were attracted to political extremists like hitler.

I am glad they all died there.Both the Germans and the Russians.Too bad America and what was left of Germany didn't hook up after the war to take on Russia.The whole Cold war could have been averted.

I fought in Viet Nam Buddy.I know 1st hand what war is. It's Hell. But ,I still stand by my comment.The cold war could have been averted and millions would not have been killed by communist creeps if we had taken Russia when we had the army there to do it.

If Great Britain, France, and the U.S would have just stayed out of our conflict with the Soviet Union history would of have turned out for the best.

With the Soviets? No..your war was against the Jews.If it was the Soviets why invade Poland and all of Western Europe? Why make a deal with Stalin to split Poland?It was a war so all the Jews in Europe could be murdered...that's why.Every Nazi then and now should be either killed or in prison.
