No. Dude was a megalomaniac and not a good strategist.

Even if they are it's a really fucking stupid idea.
>Hitler actually fucking listens to his Generals.
Would Germany win the war?
>>1258191
Who knows. France wouldn't have been conquered as quick as it did though.
>>1258194
False.
Hitler stole the strategy from his own generals.
>>1258191
Maybe. Maybe not. His generals weren't a single hivemind that would've known how to win the war. A lot of generals disagreed with him and just as many did agree with him.

It is amazing indeed. Height is a very valuable asset. You are very powerful and I have no choice but to submit to my servile instincts and become your vassal. I totally didn't have any plans for democratic process and decent quality of life by the way.

HEY MAO LOOK, YOU'RE 5 FOOT 9
And you're a man, an ugly old man!
Finally, after many years of subservience, I have secured a market economy for me and my fellow black cat sharing subjects. Even though this feat was only possible after my superior subjugators died, I consider my achievement a superhuman feat. I am a god. I will finally achieve world relevance by becoming the most loyal servant of the Bourgeoisie and giving them all my money.

fuck off, barbarian.
>>1258197
I mean the Ottomans literally destroyed what was left of the Roman Empire. So the Ottoman Empire is as much the inheritor of Rome's Empire as the Germanic HRE.
So... Not. At. All.
Given that England and France declared war on Germany , arent they responsible for ww2?
Wow. Really makes you think doesn't it.
>>1258084
Yes. They are. They are also hypocrites, because they allied with the Soviet Union, who also invaded Poland.
Given that the Allies had threatened Germany with war if they invaded Poland, and Germany still chose to invade Poland, isn't it okay to say it really was Germany?
Just look at history and you will see the Germans started all world wars, even the Napoleon one under Austria.

What's with the German hate on this board and why do you nerds consider Germanics = Germans? Sure, I hate Germans. They're the most autistic assholes in Europe, but it's just so rampant,

Which Islam? Different sects ban different things.
Here's the only important sin you need to know regarding that.
>[3:94] Those who fabricate false prohibitions after this, and attribute them to GOD, are truly wicked.
>[5:87] O you who believe, do not prohibit good things that are made lawful by GOD, and do not aggress; GOD dislikes the aggressors.
The majority of things banned in modern Islam are contrary to the teachings of the Quran which states that only things banned by God should be...

He was actually pretty based and had a decent conservative viewpoint. Not the meme crap the neocons put forward, i think he actually wanted to raise the taxes. I guess he was just to reasonable and boring for the american political Circus.
>>1257568
>Raised taxes
>>1257584
Which actually is a good thing if you intend to have a huge and expensive military.
>also: Look at todays deficit. Either the USA should have enjoyed the peace dividend or start with small gradual tax raises.

What if every religion is true and after you die you go to whichever one it was you believed.
If you're Christian/Muslim you'll most likely end up in hell because you're all fucking hypocrites who never practice their own faith while calling everyone else out.
If you're atheist you just fucking disappear lel

From a purely military/strategical standpoint, how good was Francisco Franco?
At one point he was the youngest captain in the Spanish Army

Winning the civil war was no mean feat surely?
Damn the catalonians
>>1256824
He was kind of like Wellington. He mostly enganged inferior armies and preffered the safe strategies. That is probably the reason why the civil war lasted so long.
>>1257192
>Wellington was bad
The countercharge tactic he loved was pure insanity.
>Charged by 3k Frenchmen who think you'll break.
>Let off a single volley until they come closer
