first of all the alied nation could careless about the jews the only reason they got involved is because of attacks on them. the allies new that the jews were being killed. did they help in the begging no it took a long time before they got involved. if it wasnt for the russians, britian would not be here today. The russians won the war they were the ones who put up the biggest fight which made the germans move alot of their force to the russian front. if u think the jew had friends then why did it take 6 million dead jews to let their "friends" rethink and help them kinda off topic but the thing i dont get is why couldn't the germans land troops on england. they had uboats going almost in striking distance of america. surely they could have invaded them. if anyone knows i would really like to know.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
The English had lots of ships in the channel, as well as platforms and observation posts, to spot submarines.
And neither the Russians nor the Allies could have one the war alone. And Russia did well only because it had plentiful cannon fodder.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
The Russians are a formidable opponent on their own turf. Look how far they were driven back. It was the harsh winter and the torching of their own townes to starve the German armies that did the most damage.
Fighting Russia was, by far, their worst mistake.
I don't buy the figure of 6 million, but that's just me.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Our empire is to vast to be conquered. there is know doubt in my mind that stalin would have burned Moscow to the ground if it wasnt for the victory near the city. he would never let stalingrad fall however. Russian's have bin at war with the germans since Alexsader nevsky defeated the Tuetonic kinghts on a frozen lake athousend years ago. even without the help of the other allies russia would have not sucembed to Fritz. even if it meant 100 of war.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Hitler was a great military leader on the grounds that he fought a war on 4 fronts and nearly and should have won.
He fought I world war one and got a medal for doing so. He knew what he was at and he knew that the allies would invaded in Europe or from north Africa. His only real mistake in that invasion was that he sent bulk of his forces to North Africa to fend of the invasion there.
His biggest mistake was that he attacked Russia too soon and pushed to far to fast and then was to weak to push on. And the harsh winter killed of all hope of victory in the east.
He had the entire world of the smartest scientist and decided to get technology on his side with the jet engine, the atom bomb and the assault rifle.
If he had succeed with this he would have being unstoppable and he wouldn�t have invaded the UK or America because in his diaries he said he wanted Britain and the USA allies

i agree he had incrediable technology. they had a "super cannon" which was huge and angled properly so that it could be fired i think over 50 miles away maybe more. the only draw back was it could only be shot once and then had to be rebuilt. it fired so high that it reached the atomoshperic limits travling in space for a period of time, then rentering the atomshpere. this allowed it to cover great distances.

and if the nazis empire had won there would be very little disease and the world would be so technologically advance becuase of hitler love of technology and the human testing on the jews.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
I dont think he loved technology. What are you talking about? Nazis were in general a Green kinda party that would have rather phased technology out of everyday life. Technology would be applied for warfare and to control the lesser racial element laborers. The Germanic aristocrats would not apply as much technology on an everyday basis as we do.

since when did Hitler start loving technology? The first law the Nazis passed was the banning of vivisection, not really the actions of someone who loves technology.
Hitler a great leader!? You are 'avin' a larf, mate. The brits were on the brink of surrender at Dunkirk, yet he let them escape. Attacking Russia was insane, and not oly did he attack Russia, he did it in the winter for fucks sake.
Anybody can sort out an economy by going to war and building too many roads.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
What did i say about the Jews??
Anyway, some interesting points have been raised, most of them covered here beofre but here goes.
The Russians managed to push back the russians after Moscow due to the fact that Stalin had held his reserves back in Siberia. These were the same troops that had fought the Japanese years earlier. There is too much to discuss concerning Russia, but one more point is that russia only managed to keep the steamroller on the Germans is down to the fact the Americans and British continued to supply arms and ammunition and tanks.
This was so helpful that the russian government recently decided to give medals to all the brits who sailed to Russia against the odds to supply them.
The germans didn't invade Britain because they lost air supperiority early in the phoney war. The fleet attacking would have been spotted miles out and attacked, in fact they wouldn't have been able to assemble because the British air fleets would have stopped it.
Regarding Dunkirk, the germans didn't think the British could get out of France so quickly. It was only due to factors outside reasonable thinking that they actually did get them off the beach.
Hmmm, 6 million dead, i remember something about if there are so many holocaust victims, who did Hitler actually kill?

Hitler is far from my idea of a fine human being. However, I do believe in giving credit where credit is due. Yes, because his duties as a dispatch runner in WWI would technically qualify him as a "glorified postman", this is a cheap propaganda diminuation of Hitler's personal courage in battle. Remember, these dispatch runners were a high priority target on both sides simply because taking one of these guys out could and did distrupt the command structure. Hitler survived four years in the trenches, no small feat for that war. He was also awarded the Iron Cross, 2nd Class...a pretty heavy duty hero badge. I fully agree that Hitler's 'ability' to lead the German Army during WWII is non-existant, but personally, Hitler was no coward. Nox

The reason why Hitler did not attempt to cross the English Channel (an amphibious assault) was because of the great difficulty in conducting amphibious operations against an adversary that can mount a strong defence. Also do not forget that England has a relatively small land mass which makes it easier to concentrate force on particular points. Israel demonstrated this concept in 1973, and while the technology is different, the principal applies. Also see John Mearsheimer, especially where he talks about the "stoppage power of water" as it significantly limits the number of troops and equipment that can be employed against an enemy.

Hmm I answered this but it did not show up. I am new, as you can tell. There is a book by John Mearsheimer where he explains how water limits the ability of projecting power. Also England was then a relatively small (in size) "great" power and hence can concentrate force on certain points (see Israel in 1973). I think if the Germans tried to land on England they would have been sent home.

"they should have attacked and landed troops on england"
In order to invade Britain Hitler need air superiority over the English Channel. Which is why he started the Battle of Britain, the fight for air superiority. Hitler lost, very badly, thanks to the dedication of the RAF and some stupid tactical errors, eg changing the focus of the bombing campaign from RAF airfields to cities.

No, There were bigger, faster, and more powerful Battlewagons that Hitler had, There was the Bismark, Tirpitz, Scharnhorst, Gneisnau(spelling) and he had more then 46 U-Boats when the war broke out.
I could go on about Hitler's Navy. He had alot more then most think that he did.

It doesn't matter whether the stretch of water is big or small, what matters is what is in the air, and on the sea. In D-Day, they had much air and sea cover.

Exactly, you need that air superiority, combined with naval forces. Japan was a good example of that (the US didn't land on Honshu but they were preparing to). As was Normandy (as you say).

hitler when he invaded poland and thus starting war had two things wrong with his army.
his navy was underdeveloped and he did not have the capablities to fight a long war
plus in the war records book it says that hitler had 46 u boats and the few battleships he had where no more than 10,000 tons. but as the war progreesed he had a few brutes is rite

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
i state once again that hitler was a brillaint leader of the army beacuse of his assault on frnace and other western europen countries.
His attack on france against a larger force and Hitler himself chhose this way against all his advisors.
He changed the way war was fought and this beat of all opposition. His tactic of a coloumn of 10 high speed panzers and glider troops and using his air force as artillary quickly and with ease overwhelmed the allies.
Only Hitler was afriad of spreading his forces to thin he called for a 48 halt and this allowed the british forces to evacuate, and only for this engalnds army would have being destoryed.
Hitler as i said before never wanted to take over england and thus offered peace to england and said something like "i dont want to see a empire destoryed" it was refused and hitler started on britain with air power and he hoped this alone would force england to surrender. He didnt want a sea assualt because his naval fleet was greatly under powered.
In the battle of britain it was bad luck and a stupid general that lost them that battle. And the fact that england cracked evry german code they had.
and Hitler success in Yugolsavia (sp) and greece also shows his skill as a leader and military mastermind.

I question your use of the phrase 'success in Yugoslavia'. I see the Yugoslavia as an ordeal. Hitler won a tactical victory in taking over the country. However, strategically, he brought Tito firmly into the Yugoslav scene and created a forum for unity not seen in that region either before or since. The partisan war Tito unleashed was exceedingly costly for the Third Reich. I'm not as well read on the Greek campaign so I'll not comment on that. Nox

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
The question is: how much of Germany's economic success during the 1930s and ingenious military tactics were directly attributable to Hitler, and how many of these successes were due to the inspired planning and attention to detail of others in the Nazi regime? Some will argue that Himmler was mainly to blame for the implementation of Nazi racial policy and Hitler's role in this was minimal; surely it is also fair to say that Hitler is sometimes given too much credit for the industrial rebuilding, the moulding of the Wehrmacht into arguably the greatest fighting force ever seen, and the use of Blitzkrieg tactics to devastating effect on the Western front.
Most of the blame for the bad decisions of the German's can be placed upon Hitler's shoulders - the switch from attacking the RAF to attacking London, the disastrous failures and refusal to withdraw on the Eastern Front. Hitler's undoubted personal charisma and magnificent oratory powers, and his single-handed transformation of the fledgling German Workers' Party into the Reichstag's largest party show the characteristics of a great leader. But his decision making during the war was often irrational, bordering on the whimsical - a man so far-removed from reality that he continued to draw up architectural masterplans for the Reich as Soviet tanks rolled into Germany.

That's a poor analogy Vene, Bush's actions are more the result of his puppetmasters, than his advisors. Hitler, right, wrong or indifferent, was at least his own man, in regards to the general direction, he was taking Germany. ___
I agree w/ FOAD, in that he became withdrawn from reality. And, the resource draining Russian front, logistically affected all other concurrent actions.

No, There were bigger, faster, and more powerful Battlewagons that Hitler had, There was the Bismark, Tirpitz, Scharnhorst, Gneisnau(spelling) and he had more then 46 U-Boats when the war broke out.
I could go on about Hitler's Navy. He had alot more then most think that he did.
I'll give you the Scharnhorst and the Gneisenau, although they were only just about ready when the war officially started, but the Bismarck and Tirpitz were only operational around 1940, the Tirpitz slightly later than that.

And they weren't even actually "battleships" as I understand the definition. Including his pocket battleships.

Its hard to catagrise them because the Germans had several restriction and built their ships around those therefore basically having their own catagories.

I'll disagree. The Nazis had the wrong idea. By trying to stop the mixing of cultures in order to "save" their culture they would actually destroyed their culture. Cultures need to mix to grow and survive, if they don't they become stagnated and die. Look at Britain, Britain has mixed culture throughout it's history, Celtic, Roman, Norman, Saxon, etc, etc, Britain became the most powerful country on earth.

There are alot of reasons why a country is poor, culture is just one of them. My point was about the survival of culture. It needs to mix with others. Even more so now than ever before. If culture's don't mix they die.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
LB, I want you to explain how exactly the mixing of cultures is needed for cultures to survive. That statement seems to contradict itself - You are saying that a culture needs to be overrun by other cultures, or the culture will die. However, when a culture is overrun by others, it dies anyway and becomes something else. When cultures clash, they don't just mix into a happy medium. One culture dominates, or total clashes occur divided upon ethnic/religious lines. Cultures only survive by maintaining integrity.
Do you think Amish culture will only survive if they import a bunch of Japanese cityfolk into their communities?

"LB, I want you to explain how exactly the mixing of cultures is needed for cultures to survive."
Culture is not a static thing. It evolves. Cultures that don't evolve, stagnate and die. Internal forces alone are not enough to keep a culture evolving, it needs outside influences. The outside influences come from other cultures.
"You are saying that a culture needs to be overrun by other cultures, or the culture will die. However, when a culture is overrun by others, it dies anyway and becomes something else."
No I'm not. I'm saying that cultures need to mix. Not be overrun.
"When cultures clash, they don't just mix into a happy medium. One culture dominates, or total clashes occur divided upon ethnic/religious lines."
Yes, they don't mix together straight away in a happy medium, it takes time.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
When cultures mix, aspects of those cultures are lost.
When cultures develop, they grow stronger.
A culture can internally develop. Take for example Ancient Sumeria. It was surrounded by deserts, of which the only inhabitants were barbaric Akkadians, without any real culture. Sumer kept developing right up until those barbarians conquered it.
Cultures never truly stagnate. They're either developing or decaying. Often the source of the decay is external contamination.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Cultures decay when new ideas are spread that weaken the old convictions, usually the result of an alien culture in continued contact with a native one. If the early colonists had as large numbers of neighbors Imperial Japanese people, they would not have been against the king strongly enough to rebel. There would always be a million nay-sayers who cite how they think their Japanese neighbors had their shit worked out. If Nazi Germany survived but in every fourth household was a hippie commune, the youth would not scramble to become good Hitler Youths.

Can't say as I totally agree with this. Remember, Adolf had to have a special session to figure out the definition of what blood mix constituted whether one was a Jew or not. If my memory is correct, if you only had one grandparent who was Jewish, you were not a Jew, but if you had two or more Jewish grandparents, then you were a Jew (Someone needs to help me on this). In any event, there were specific critereon established because of the intermixed of Aryan/Jewish blood through the centuries (not to mention conversions). As a sidelight, our buddy Louis Farrakkan has the same problem in identifying blackness. Nox

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Modern Jews are usually the same as the populaces of the countries they're from, physiologically. I've seen Jews with blonde hair, medium-brown hair, and red hair.
And slow growth is a viable plan. The US achieved it's economic power by constant slow growth.
Lingual evolution is minute, and your particular example involved internal evolution. All the same, I'd rather be speaking Anglo-Saxon than modern English.
I agree with Defiant on his opinion of your comment.

Only in cases of mixture. Its not like they looked at an archetypical Jew and couldnt figure whether to group him with the jews or the germans.

this scale was made possible by the fact that a plain ol Jew is easily identifiable, as is a plain ol German.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?

This is a true statement. I am curious: Just what were the Allies supposed to do? They were already at war, and they eventually did invade and 'liberate' the camps. I will use but one small example, Dachau (located near Munich, Bavaria). Assuming Eisenhower, et al were actually aware of what was going on in those camps (and something tells me they really did): What were they supposed to do to stop it? Munich is a long way from the coast. Were they supposed to have a paratrooper drop? What about the Luftwaffe? Were those boys going to sit around and let an airborne armada deposit soldiers on German soil uncontested? I think not. Was the Red Cross going to stop anything? I think not. Could the Pope stop anything? I think not. At this point: Could the German people stop anything that Hitler and the Nazi thugs were doing? I think not. And before you do-gooders start jumping up and down, remember, by this point in the war, the 'Big Three' (Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin) had already decided upon Germany's 'unconditional' surrender. Now if you are the average German citizen at this point in history, you are painfully aware of what got shoved down Germany's throat after WWI by the Allies, and that was a negotiated peace. Now these same benevolent Christians (some, not all) want you to give them a blank check (unconditional surrender) for the latest conflagration. No way. So we come back to the initial question: Just what was anyone to do about the concentration camps (whether they knew what was happening or not)? I will not jump into the frey about the numbers...I tend to agree with Mouse on that issue. But regardless of the numbers and/or ethnicity/nationality of the victims, I submit, that there was little anyone (other than Adolf himself) could do to stop the carnage in those camps. Do I like that answer? No. But unfortunately, that is a cold, hard reality. Nox

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
quote: Originally posted by irishsniper: The nazi did the get the idea right?
It�s interesting that a subject that starts out as quoted, turns out to be mostly about Hitler and his (non)brilliance as a military leader at war. But what was the Nazi "idea" behind it all?! What was their "hidden agenda"?! Funny thing is, that if you look at what�s happening in Europe right now, you see a main part of "the Nazi idea" being worked out and fullfilled... The Thule society and their forerunners, and other affiliated quasi Masonic groups, had their hearts set on reviving The Holy Roman Empire of The German Nation (I�m not sure that�s the right name for it in English, but I hope you understand). The Habsburgs who had lost that throne wanted it back, and they were among the conspirators. It was those guys who started the Nazi party, and decided that the agitator Adolf Hitler was the perfect "leader". Franz von Papen, one of the conspirators, who also "happened" to be a Knight of Malta, was the man who persuaded President von Hindenburg to make Hitler the Chancellor of Germany. At that point, and for a long while after, Hitler was far from being the leader, even if he officially had that position. But that�s another story... The next Nazi "idea" we might consider, is the question of the Jews (obligatory, so we might as well do it sooner than later). That question was considered a problem all over Europe, and the Nazi�s original plan was not the death camps. The leaders of the SS worked together with the Zionists (!) on the, now fullfilled, plan to give the Jews Israel as their own country. The fact that the Habsburgs then, and still, hold the title Emperor of Jerusalem, has probably got to do with it all, as the Nazi version of Israel most likely would have become a part of the new empire - The Third Reich, if you heard about it?! Others within the Nazi leadership were against the idea of Israel, and Hitler�s own agenda of revenge on the Jews started to take over, as Hitler got more and more real power within the party. As many already know, there were also a lot of occultism going on. The Thule society was so called because Ultima Thule (where I come from, approximately) was by many occultists considered to have been the real Atlantis. Most of these muddled ideas didn�t exactly help, when the Third Reich was supposed to be built. The Nazi "idea" to keep Germans a clean "Aryan" race, was not wholy a Nazi idea. From the latter part of the 19th century, scientists had worked in different ways on those ideas. The Thule guys and the Nazis added their occultism and esoteric knowledge. People from the SS went to India and Tibet, to search for proof of the (mythological) Aryans, who invaded India from the north a long time ago. The north European and Teutonic people were supposedly their descendents (and descendents of the Atlanteans). On another level, the ideas of the Swedish scientists Alva and Gunnar Myrdal, was significant in what is now considered Nazi ideas about race. Yes, this comes closer and closer to getting moved from here to Fringe, but it was part of the Nazi "ideas" and it had a significant impact on what they were doing. At one point or another, the Habsburgs must have had a fall out with the Nazi�s, because when the Nazis finally went to war, Hitler immediately went to Vienna and picked up the Spear of Longinus, belonging to the Habsburgs up until then, and now again. A special branch of the SS also searched the Balkans and southern France in particular, and verywhere else, after all the other christian relics, and all the "missing papers" from the Cathars and others. Something the Habsburgs had been doing for a long time, and still do I guess... Shortened like this it becomes confusing, and even more so if you read some books about it. But all this seemingly gibberish had a lot to do with who the Nazis were and why they did what they did... As we all know, their plans failed. But not long after the war, Otto von Habsburg formed the League for the United States of Europe. This time he kept a strict lobbying agenda, and little by little what is now the European Union was formed. Otto himself is now well past 80 years of age, and holds an ordinary, independent seat in the European parliament. Funny thing is that most of the people sitting around him don�t have a clue he�s their actual boss! Europe is now also closing it�s borders, more and more, exactly as the Nazis planned to do, had they come that far. The Nazis failed to overthrow the Communists, wich was also on their agenda, but in the late 1980ies, Otto von Habsburg, the Vatican and Opus Dei had a big part in the fall of the Soviet Union and the Eastern Block. I don�t know if the Nazis had the right ideas, but I do know that some of their main ideas have come true today, and are considered as positive developement. But, then again, most of it wasn�t Nazi ideas in teh first place... Ewige Blumenkraft!

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
The European Parliament is the lowest in the hierearchy and have elected politicians of all colours, from all the member countries. In the parliament they are put together with their political friends, into blocks; the Socialist block, the Green block, and so on. But some doesn�t fit into any block, for various reasons, like having a fall out with their party, and choosing to keep their seat. Those people are independent from the blocks, and put together in the independent "block".
So the seats are certainly not inherited, and I don�t have a clue how Otto von Habsburg managed to be elected into the parliament.
But it�s funny that he chooses to hold an ordinary seat in what is only advisors to the real European "government": the European Counsel and the board of the Ministers (once again I�m unsure about the names in English here). and it�s both funny and scary, that most people around him don�t have a clue who he really is.
I hope this is some of what you wondered about, Nox, and thank�s for the kind remarks. I�m doing my best, as the saying goes... Wiecny kwiat wtadza! FoxLeonard

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Yes, Spirit! Of course I meant descendents and not ancestors. I can only blame the fact that English is not my first language. I especially tend to stumble when my mind is on the subject and not on the words; when I try to think, with various results...
What I meant by writing "(mythological) Aryans" is that there IS a debate, among historians etc., about the truth about the Aryans. The people who go by that name undoubtedly existed.
They also DID come down from the north, into what now is India, so I don�t have a clue what the word "supposedly" came from. Perhaps I thought about the fact that the way it happened is debated; part of what is by some scholars considered myth, if not in whole, so in part.
Thanks for keeping an eye on my scribblings, Spirit!

For clarity I have now done corrections in my earlier post, according to some of what you point out, even if it can make your post above, and this one look confusing.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
The Nazi ideas about Race are supported by the work of Mendel. Mendellian science is used today in all genetic programs and sciences. Why? Because Mendellian theory is reality. Mendel is Nazi as Nazi is Mendel and there is no way to the future without Mendel.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Damn it. If Otto van Hapsburg supports the EU I suppose I must also.
But if I recall correctly, Hitler was anti-Hapsburg. I remember him talking about the Slavicization of the Austrian monarchy as reason for it's removal.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Yes, I guess Hitler was anti-Habsburg. At least something happened that made the Habsburgs withdraw from the conspiracy, or from the Nazi part of it, while Hitler went to Vienna to pick up the Spear of Longinus, then in Habsburg�s possesion and supposedly "protecting" them. As I also mentioned above, a special branch of the SS started searching for the other relics and artefacts that the Habsburgs (among others) had been searching, for hundreds of years. As far as I can understand the SS didn�t do this just to stop the Habsburgs from getting their hands on this stuff, but also because at least some of the esoteric scholars among the Nazis believed in the power of the artifacts. The search also involved a lot of documents, probably relating to the complex issues that are described in Holy Blood, Holy Grail, by Baigenth et al.
And Otto von Habsburg is not exactly a "supporter" of the EU. He is more it�s true inventor or originator.
But, what I don�t understand is why you, VeneFrigus, would have to support the EU only because of Otto?!

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
Oh, I've been going around lately and telling people to be loyal Austrians, and support the Hapsburgs, and all that.
Mein Kampf was written before the Nazi party ever amounted to anything. So it didn't come from a falling out, but it may have been written before they ever became allies.
I get the Ewige Blumenkraft, but what's the Wiecny kwiat wtadza?

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
VeneFrigus
You are correct about Mein Kampf, so there was no fall out needed. But the Habsburgs did neverhteless leave the conspiracy shortly before the outbreak of the war, and most probably because of a disagreement with Hitler, who by then had power of his own, as we all know.
I guess the Habsburgs didn�t read Mein Kampf before going along with the idea to "employ" Adolf. Also, and more importantly, it was not only a Habsburgian conspiracy, so they couldn�t decide everything for their own good.
As for your other question: It�s the same thing! And you�re the first one to ask, amazingly enough (at a place like totse).

I thought Hungarians weren't slavs, but magyars.

Re: Nazi did they have the right idea?
quote: Originally posted by irishsniper: Hitler was a great military leader on the grounds that he fought a war on 4 fronts and nearly and should have won.(four fronts? Wetern Front, Eastern front and Italia/African front - wheres the fourth?)
He fought I world war one and got a medal for doing so. (As a corporal and got the Iron cross 2nd class, as did some millions of other cannon fodder)
He knew what he was at and he knew that the allies would invaded in Europe or from north Africa. His only real mistake in that invasion was that he sent bulk of his forces to North Africa to fend of the invasion there. ( Rubbish - He thought the invasion would be at Normandy, then had a brain storm and decided that it would be Pas De Calaise - The Germans were out of Africa by 1944)
His biggest mistake was that he attacked Russia too soon and pushed to far to fast and then was to weak to push on. And the harsh winter killed of all hope of victory in the east. (True enough, assisted by appalling decisions made by OKW and Der Fuehrer, no strategic bombers, SS atrocities against people who would otherwise have helped his cause, etc etc)
He had the entire world of the smartest scientist and decided to get technology on his side with the jet engine (?), the atom bomb ( Rubbish again) and the assault rifle (Rubbish - the Sturm Gewehr 44 was in production by late 44, but was largely issued to Waffen SS and Valshirmjaeger units.)
If he had succeed with this he would have being unstoppable and he wouldn�t have invaded the UK or America because in his diaries he said he wanted Britain and the USA allies
My god, what are they teaching in Irish schools these days?
