How long the resistance lasted wasnt in question, the fact that there wouldve been resistance at all is what matters
The soviet union used economic incentives to attract and maintain educated people to work in their nuclear program
Say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, at least its an ethos.
Hmm... Maybe Jasse is right. My friend is telling me that the US was isolationist at the time and only entered WWII because Japan attacked them. Does anyone know more about it?
National Socialism and Communist Socialism both function very similarly, just for different reasons.
they were Damian
The us government provided socialized health care and housing to their staff working in the Richland nuclear facility
US did provide economic support, but no soldiers
Only after pearl harbor did they actively join the war effort
@Blackhawk342 they got run over.
so would have every other counry too.
germany was only one who could actually fight back.
cuz they just came out of the great depression
I see
The United States continuously tried to remain as independent as possible until the Cold War forced us to become the Global Police.
funny way germany had of showing how heroic they are by attackign every "friend" country around them
Right because brittan, france, italy wouldnt have had armies by 1944
They obviously wouldve disbanded them because of the longstanding peace
If we went back to being isolationist after WWII all of Europe would be a People's Republic.
FDR's war-factories forced America to become global police
the US needed to sell their guns somewhere
Hmm true
workers were paid already
france didint have man power to defend.
italy. well we saw how well they did....
and brits would have been fucked with out US.
We also had a vested interest in supplying these states.
>no manpower
France had a great wall, they were just so stupid to think Germany couldn't just waltz around it 😄
Ok so just to be clear in this scenario you are assuming the USSR attacks in 1944 correct?
I am talking about post ww2.
thats why they build magnito line. they didint have enought men to invade germany.
I am talking about Operation Unthinkable.
......................
that was to defend against germany
No they built it because they had a defensive mindset and saw how the last war played out
not invade them
Again, in 1939 their mindset would be different than it was in 1944
they aready lost so many men in WW1 and didint have enought men to hold that long border. let alone invade.
If in 1939 the USSR invades europe it would have collapsed
Germany lost more, they LOST WW1 after all
They had no logisitcs, badly organized supporting elements, a garbage airforce, no compotent officers, a dual command structure and low morale
France and britian didnt start mobilizing until Germany took over Czechoslovakia
