I've often wondered what the world would be like today if we'd let the
Krauts take the Kremlin back then instead of backing Stalin . . And
THEN have creamed the Krauts.

They almost did! But Adolf managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by
such dumb moves as dividing his invasion force and exterminating rather than
befriending the Ukranians.

The high point of German occupation of the USSR came just before Pearl Harbor.
Then they started being pushed back. Had Stalin lost, the western alliance
would have had the job of defeating a Germany that had USSR's resources behind
it, and no second front.

Wow! You guys sure take some kind of vector off of a left turn. Talk
about off off topic! Ooop! Not allowed to say PCTA are off topic.
My bad. So sorry. May a thousand "camel humpers" (?is that what
Steve called them?) move into my nice neighborhood.
