It might have been prudent, but as history would have it, it now appears to have been a significant mistake. Bottom line; the French and British folded like a wet dishrag, and the Germans were not fully prepared to exploit that outcome. [/quote] They were exhausted (of winning) because amphetamines can only push you 105% for so long... They would have never massacred them anyway.. so moot point.. _ [/quote] The widespread amphetamine use came later. The Germans were worried about logistics and vulnerabilities due to over-extension. Again, the Germans simply could not deal with how quickly the French and British defenses were overcome. That's a nice way of saying that they humiliated the French and British to a point that the Nazi's themselves were not prepared to exploit the situation to the fullest advantage, which could have, indeed, shaped the outcome of the war. I agree that the Germans would not have massacred the defeated armies. [/quote] Well we're good then. Germany was the absolute best army, there's no debate... _ [/quote] Especially when you realize that the US has single states bigger than all of Germany. [/quote]
Original Message
He makes it seem like the evacuation at Dunkirk was some sort of heroic event on the part of the Allies. Bullshit! The only reason the Allies escaped was because Uncle Adolf allowed them to escape. Hitler's infamous "Stop Order" is the reason the allies escaped. It wasn't due to any nail-biting, heroic action on the part of the Allies. Christopher Nolan is a bullshit artist. He should have made a movie about the real heroes of the Battle of France, the Wehrmacht - the greatest fighting force in the history of warfare:
