Normandy Landing (10/6/2019)17/5/2022 (10/6/2019)
The Allies forgot to invite the greatest contributor to their victory. Here is a Winston Churchill quote dated June 10, 1943 from Parliamentary records: "On the European front, the most important development of the past year has been the crushing offensive of the great armies of Russia against the powerful German army. Those Russian forces have destroyed and are destroying more of the armed power of our enemies—troops, planes, tanks, and guns—than all the other united nations put together." He was talking about the Battle of Stalingrad which ended four months earlier. The German eastern front had lost over a million soldiers which could not be replaced. The Germans also lost the myth of invincibility. In another couple of months, the Germans would lose another major battle (Battle of Kursk, the largest tank battle ever) on that front, leaving them defenseless against Soviet advance into Berlin. Stalin took his sweet time for a detour into Eastern Europe, but in the end, it was the Soviet army that entered Berlin. The Soviets had turned the tide of the war. This happened while they had not received any direct assistance from their Western allies, and despite unfulfilled promises by their Western allies that a second front would open on the Atlantic coast in 1942. The German war machine was irretrievably broken nine months before Normandy. The Soviets also paid the greatest human cost. They had sustained 27 million deaths, of which 14 million were Russians, about 13% of their whole population. The Americans suffered 450,000 casualties, about the same as the Brits. This serves to fill in the memory gaps created by Western historians and mainstream media. "History is primarily the glorification of murderers as told by liars to idiots." -- anonymous To understand more about the Second World War, read Jay Janson's article below about how it was possible for the bankrupt and the hyperinflation-wrecked Germany to miraculously transform into the world's mightiest military power during the 1930s, when the world was in the throes of a great depression. Jay is a nonagenarian who fought in the Korean War and has seen much of the world. https://countercurrents.org/2019/06/wwii-holocaust-could-not-have-happened-without-corporate-usa-rearming-germany-to-destroy-the-ussr Caveat: links to Wikipedia are for casual reference only.
