The lack of intelligence that you have demonstrated to us today is so intensely profound that I'm not even sure where to even begin to combat the painful stupidity emanating through your posts.

Edited by Pahat Pojat: 6/14/2013 12:39:53 PMGood, I would have not wanted your country to join WWII anyways.

Edited by Pahat Pojat: 6/13/2013 11:28:46 PMI wanted the Communists and Russia arrested, and put them on trial in the Nuremberg Trials after WWII.
-
We supported them for their military power. Part of the reason that Truman authorised the dropping of the atomic bombs in 1945 was to intimidate the USSR. Both sides knew a cold war (and potentially a hot one) was coming, and neither supported the other.
-
They could have given Patton a green light to invade the USSR in 1945 or they could have just stayed out of the European conflict and let Germany and Russia wipe each other out from the face of the Earth since they had also been allies due to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.
-
Idiot... Had Patton been granted a Green light the US would have faced the same disaster [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url]-Germany faced. And there was still uncertainty about the Pacific campaign.
-
If Patton knew they could have done it, then they certainly could have done it. The Russians were devastated after WWII, at that point they were already low on fuel, they had practically no air force, and they were dependent on the Lend-Lease provided by America. If given all the support, Patton could have rearmed whatever was left of the German forces to help the Allies out in liberating Eastern Europe and ultimately have their army march into Moscow.
-
And what of the Pacific Campaign? US resources were stretches then with that Campaign and occupying and providing stability for formally occupied Europe... And you can sure as hell bet the US would be alone on it.
-
Anytime between 1945-1947 would have been a good time to attack the USSR. Britain had already issued the ''Operation Unthinkable'', and most of all, Germany would have helped the Allies in their effort and certainly the Eastern European countries (namely Poles, Estonians etc..)
-
Aye... But the cost in Allied lives and materials would be enormous. An who says Russia would be alone?

Edited by Pahat Pojat: 6/13/2013 6:31:48 PMNobody would have supported Russia. In fact, during the first year of Operation Barbarossa the Russians considered the Germans to be liberators, but it wasn't until after Stalin ordered that any Russian who surrenders their family must be killed, and when the Russians realized the Germans were going to treat them even worse than Stalin's Russia did, that was actually when the Russians started to fight against the Germans.
