In South Asia, Britain was also defending its colonies and commonwealth against Japan. On the face of it, especially in the long term and even with Lend-Lease aid from the United States, it is difficult to see how Britain could have continued the war without the entry of the United States into the conflict on its side.
Presumably, Winston Churchill would have had to sue for peace, or endure a German invasion of the British Isles once the Nazis had consolidated their military strength in Europe. That did not happen, of course.
After Churchill heard that America had been attacked at Pearl Harbor, he rushed to a secure telephone to call Franklin Roosevelt. His Memoirs of the Second World War relate the following:. In two or three minutes Mr. Roosevelt came through. President, what's this about Japan? We are all in the same boat now. No American will think it wrong of me if I proclaim that to have the United States at our side was to me the greatest joy.
I could not foretell the course of events. The fact that U. They are the ones that committed the worst crimes during the war.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki anyone??? Actually the atomic bombs that ended World War II in the Pacific probably saved more lives than they took. If the US had had to invade Japan, it would have been a blood bath. Far more Japanese are alive today because of the atomic bombs dropping and ending the war than would have been had the bombs not been dropped. I was about to say that. The Japs thought that surrounding would kill their emperor either through suicide or death penalty.
Also btw what did the Russians do to end the war with Japan? Sorry for grammar! LOL the worst crimes committed during the war was what Japan did to China. Nanjing anyone??? Capricorn, you are a moron. Try actually thinking sometime. The fanatical Japs made it clear that they were not going to surrender without an invasion. It was estimated that an invasion would have cost the Allies a quarter million deaths, and over a million Japanese dead.
Look at the death tolls of Japanese from relatively most invasions like Iwo or Saipan. Try reading a book about the war sometime before spewing Eurotrash propaganda. Fair point, however, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were a lesser evil.
It is projected that fatalities would have been much higher as the Japanese at this time, and still are, to an extent, some of the most tenacious people on earth. For example, such forms of ritual suicide are common today and socially acceptable in Japan to protect honor and standing. Also, we tried to warn them. LeMay leaflets, anyone? However, to let it sink in, this was not morally correct, however, the alternative would likely have been a far bloodier and longer war.
However, the neat thing about humanity is that we can learn from these political mistakes. This is why fascism and totalitarianism has a bad rap to this day. For example, how do you think the North Koreans would act when they see a place like the US, Britain or the rest of Asia.
This specific country is told by the Kim family that they the Kim family are gods and that the rest of the world is even worse off than they are. Communism and Fascism yes, socialism in all forms belongs here too are the real problems, as they are are extremist systems that have to eliminate dissenters just to stay afloat.
Not to mention the disastrous effects on the economy. You must be a kid. War is evil and you must be evil to win. It is the guy that won the war. He is the one that writes history and will naturally make himself look good and the loser bad. If Hitler won, we would say he has virtue and Allied were evil.
Since he lost we say Hitler is evil and Allied are good people. It is life. The Nazis were…that alone makes them the bad guys. Germany was trying to invade them. And your argument might be that people decide whether or not someone is evil by their own opinion.
If you see a child being starved to near death would you believe that the parents are evil? Yes you would because they had a responsibility to feed them and they intentionally tortured a little child by not giving them food. Nazis and Japanese could have world war 2 main mistake made by Japs is attack on pearl harbour which made to fight with united states the mistake made by Nazis is they created two way he should have completed invasion against the Britain he should not have been canceled the invasion.
This way you have the oil and you can avoid the winter which also led to the Nazi defeat. But to answer the question; Yes Germany absolutely could have won. Tell Japan to not invade America until Europe is dominated first 2. Save the Final Solution until after the war 3.
Defeat Russia with Japan 7. Bomb Japan into submission 8. Nice list. Japan does not bomb Pearl Harbor. Skip the Final Solution entirely. The British Empire is on the ropes at this time. Churchill will fail a vote of no confidence in Parliament. Britain capitulates under the new Labour leadership. Britain is nothing without the Empire. Leave the U. There is no U. Defeat Russia with Japan! At least discourage Japan from signing a non-aggression pact with Russia.
The stupidest thing the Axis allowed was to have Japan bring the U. No coordination! Why bomb Japan? Is half of the world under German domination not enough? Easier said then done. It was hard then to bomb America, given its distance from Europe. Japan was fortunate and never really keyword got a good second chance to bomb it. Plus, America has a lot of natural resources and mind-power.
America was probably the second strongest country next to Germany able to take on the rest of the planet. Germany and its new allies would have a tough fight. Russia and other country would be hesitant to join Germany bent on world domination. Leaders want more power and not less- and certainly not to Hitler. On top, America would of had played on that and it did.
A reason why Japan attacked Pearl Harbor is because America was aiding its enemies. Japan attacked the U. A because we embargoed the hell out of them. They had no oil and no food. This attack worked because of sheer luck. The radars towers did pick them up, but they thought they were allied transport planes and the times matched up the real transport planes came during the attack and were shot by friendly fire.
The ships were being cleaned out and had maintenance — all the windows, hatches and doors were all left open so they all sunk easier than normal when attacked. Moreover, the resource and manpower question, together with diminishing returns as regards mobilization and the incredible size disparity, makes it harder still.
No Operation Sea Lion success. This one sticks though. Berlin steps up efforts to consolidate integration of continental Europe particularly central Europe, always at the core of long term planning — Schacht plan, etc — utilizing the enormous human capital resources and economic complementarities. It gains from this enforced period of stability in a medium term — year Cold War context, see Erfurt and the post-war German boom for further evidence as to feasibility to develop the economic and technological resources along with enormous manpower which can ultimately bring down the USSR, with the tacit acquiescence of the USA which had defeated Japan and ending in a Brezhnev style stagnation or nuclear war.
The challenger to liberal democracy was always going to be Fascism or Communism, no one knew which one though — it was a close run thing. Hitler could have won if he: 1 United the Islamic nations into the Islamic empire again as quick as possible instead of making the kingdoms,sultanates,and republics after he freed them and giving them to Turkey Ottomans so they can rebuild the empire and get the once 2nd largest empire to his side 2 He could have invaded his enemies separately other than attacking everyone in the same time 3 He could have helped his new lands Poland,France,Scandinavia,etc.
The for reading!!!!!!!! YouTube:ahmed real there are two accounts Wanna share this share it with the username ahmed real The again. Hitler could have won the war with better public relations. Yeah, he needed Spartans whose shields can stop bullets, tanks and nuclear bombs. Greece was probably what he admired, but it was irrelevant to world conquest. Not really. It is hard to get conquered people to join you takes a long time and some brainwashing.
When Britain was about to seize Jamaica from Spain, Spain asked the Natives to join the fight and promised them benefits. The Natives ran into the caves at the first chance they got and left the Spaniards alone to taste English lead and swords.
It is hard to conquered a piece of land and then rest and try to conquered more. If you do that, the potentially-conquerable people would wise-up and get better prepared. Plus, it was not of much value during the war hard to defend given its isolation. Arabic nations were immaterial during World War II. They were dirt poor pun intended and had no resources oil boom came later. German military was stretched thin.
It could not really added more defense or things like that. It tried to do too much and own too much. Well Germany did cut-off Britain from the empire? Black-outs were imposed because of bombing raids. Hitler believed Britain could be persuaded and could be made an ally, but he got that all wrong.
In fact, he has pictures of some of the atrocities committed that were taken by his regimental photographer with him in the photos, so tell me how that could be faked in the s?? WW2 is one of the only wars in history where you can clearly point to a good side and an evil side.
The bombing of Dresden and nuking of Japan were both necessary actions, the point was to send a clear message that the actions of Germany and Japan would not be tolerated ever again. Looking at Japan now, it appears to have worked.
Furthermore the bombing of Dresden was done deliberately in the line of Soviet advance to send them the same message. Whether technically war crimes or not, they were necessary and done for a reason, not on a whim or out of spite, and not comparable to genocide. Bombing specific railway lines was extremely difficult in WW2 and would not have stopped the holocaust in any meaningful way. If you truly believe that the Allies and Germans were comparably wicked I have to ask, have you ever actually studied any of this, or are you just reciting BS pro-nazi propaganda?
Losses under the British empire, a lot. Wantet to give a full answar — yes I know very well what the nazies did.. Typical neo-Nazi bullshit. Your side lost-and all decent people including most present day Germans-think that was a good thing. Hitler could have won? Would he have united Europe and the US against Communism and listeded to his Generals, he would have won the war! People really over-estimate the effectiveness of the U-boats, sure they were extremely powerful at the start of the war and took a heavy toll on supply lines, but by the middle and end of the war they were little more than death traps because we learned how to deal with them, and they were made even more obsolete after we cracked enigma.
This biggest butchers perhaps of all times? China and the United States. The U. Be careful when you judge preborn children to be not human. You think they really would have a pretty good shot at winning, right? Now go shake your fist at your pictures of Emmanuel Goldstein… or Hitler or whoever. Salute your pictures of Roosevelt… or Stalin or whoever. You know the truth. Done then there will be a civil war and all countries freed theirselves with about countries starting a death match they created new kind of weapons there is peace for a long time but the fire nation attacked and everything changes.
I can only see Hitler winning the WW2 in one way. If he succeeded in dvelepoing the atom bomb he could have easily won against both the US and Soviets. The events after that just closed his coffin and buried it. And the aftermath of the WW2 if Hitler won is also impossible to tell. But anyway my answer is -Yes Hitler could have won the war-. Hitler was 8 weeks away from launching a nuclear bomb on London, that would have been the end of the war!
The map of modern Europe, in terms of the break of countries is very similar and who sits at the top of the tree in the EU. All the Germans need to do to win was 1. Not attack the Russians until they had conquered everyone else including the u. Finish what they started in Britain and crush them completely stopping the u. Use the new Britain they conquered to make tons of boats and attack the u. He blatantly ignored advice from his inner circle of generals and although Rommel did plot against Hitler, he may have won in the Africa Korps had Hitler actually accepted his requests for resources.
In the end, we not see actions themselves nor the aftermath in a discussion about fiction as if the tables were turned, Britain, America, and Russia would be tried for war crimes against German citizens. Understanding Enigma traffic contributed to victory in the Battle of Britain, assessing the German threats to invade England, and was especially important during the battle of the Atlantic, on which British survival depended in — It is challenging to measure the precise value of the work done at Bletchley, where Italian and Japanese traffic was also broken.
Fundamentally, the European Axis — and Japan — lost because they were much weaker than the Allied coalition. To the Axis leaders, world resources — both overseas and in territories within Eurasia — had been divided up unfairly and without their participation, in the Treaty of Versailles and before.
There is no space to discuss Italy or the smaller Axis satellites; they too had a sense of entitlement, but could never have won without Germany. This failed: by late Hitler faced a situation where he could not invade Britain nor control more than the deep borderlands of the USSR. Because they were weak, they failed. Sign in.

By Ben Shepherd Western Allied industrial, maritime and air power were fundamental to destroying the German war machine. How were the final months of battle experienced across the continent? What did it mean for Britain to fight a war whose conclusion was so hard to predict?
Relive the moment of victory itself, told through the voices of soldiers and civilians who experienced it. Food, materiel and fuel shortages for the Axis powers ran across the board. Watch: Are we in denial about our role in WW2? Keith Lowe explains — in 60 seconds. Hitler studies a map of the Soviet invasion, With the Eastern Front now locked in a stalemate and without an end to the war in sight, negotiations between the key players commence — peace without victory is now the most likely outcome.
The Americans drop the atomic bombs on Japan but does it have the same effect as in our timeline? There is a growing theory amongst historians that it was the threat of invasion from the Soviets that forced the Japanese to surrender, not the American atomic bombs. In this altered timeline, Stalin is unhappy with the lack of participation in Europe from the Western Allies and so refuses to help America with the Japanese.
How long the fight for the Pacific now goes on for one can only speculate, but American global influence will almost certainly not be what it is in our timeline. With the continued existence of Nazi Germany, will the world slip into a Cold War with three countries involved?
If it does, the Europe of today will be unrecognisable. What if D-Day had failed? Hitler Battles. Scenario 1 - Allies launch a second offensive on to mainland Europe. The balance of power during the forthcoming Cold War is drastically changed. Scenario 2 - Allies focus on aerial bombardment. Scenario 3 — Allies retreat and consolidate, the Nazis move resources to the Eastern Front and hold on long enough to successfully sue for peace. Chip Number One — the Americans go into isolation after D-day.
Chip Number Two — the reinforced German forces are able to hold off the advancing Soviets. Embedded video. Letters of Love in WW2 Trailer. Read more about: Battles The man who didn't shoot Hitler.
