Normandy, 1944: when men were men; incredible footage taken from the German side

Every sees right through your second rate pil-pul tard sophistry A.

Amen

Germany tried to tell the world how it was gonna be - others pushed back. Doesn't sound like propaganda but then again you have skewered eyes to facts.

Like I stated, Before 1943. It could have been over by then.

You watch too many movies.

You should try reading and learning about this subject if you are interested.

What was done to the German people from WWI until well
after WWII was genocide (aka the real holocaust) that benefitted only one group, yep. The “you know whos”...

"The Red Army had invaded Finland and pretty much gotten their asses kicked with Finland only making peace when they were about out of ammo."

Finland was never invaded by the Soviet Union.

Neither after the Winter War in 1940 nor after the massive Soviet summer offensive in 1944.

The peace treaties were harsh after both wars. Finland had to cede Karelia and border areas to the Soviet Union but Finland was never invaded.

Actually the Red Army invaded on a broad front crossing the border into Finland on November 30, 1939.

Since you provided a Wiki image check this one:

Most of the battles in the Winter war were fought on Finnish territory. Examples are the Battle of Suomussalmi, the Battle of Raate Road and the Battle of Kollaa... all of which were Finnish victories. Finland won most battles in the Winter War but lost the war due to running low on ammo while facing the overwhelming strength of the Red Army.

Ahh.. now I understand why you are so fucking clueless. You have been force feeding yourself neoNazi propaganda! Dude expand your horizons and read something not written by cucks who worship the little shitstain with the funny mustache.

Written by Cucks?

Language barrier?

Look, you have provided PDFs from two 1930s propaganda books that came from Joseph Goebbels Ministry of Propaganda. Germany's Hitler was put out just a year after the Nazis seized power in Germany and is probably the least authentic thing ever written about the man. You have a link to David Irving's website, a man who has lied about Adolf Hitler so much there is actually a book about Irving titled "Lying About Hitler".

And that mind numbing 6 hour propaganda video at the top of your list? My bet is most of you Hitler fanboys probably switch over to your gay porn videos long before the 30 minute mark.

No, it couldn't. By the end of 1941 Germany was doomed. They had invaded the massive Soviet Union and even though they dominated on the battlefield the Soviets kept on fighting. Then just as Germany was suffering defeat in the Battle of Moscow the little dummkopf with the funny mustache declared war on the United States. From that point on Germany was doomed. They were still in a dominant position controlling virtually all of Europe at that point but there simply wasn't a scenario where Germany could win. The Soviet Union was too large and too far from Germany and was a meat grinder for the Wehrmacht. And with the industrial capacity and naval forces of the United States Germany simply couldn't win.

You sir are clueless. The Tripartite Pact only committed Germany to aid Japan if Japan was attacked. That didn’t happen. Japan attacked the US at Pearl Harbor so Germany was not required to declare war on the US.

I’m calling bullshit on OP. One of my uncles was in Patton’s 3rd army and until he died he stayed in touch with a French guy who they liberated from the Nazis. OP’s story sounds like made up bullshit.

Those guys would still be colonized today or worse.

Good video op thanks

You use the word invasion in a deceptive way.

Finland was actually one of the few countries that were not invaded during WWII.

With invasion we generally understand that the country is overrun and taken over by the enemy.

For example Poland was invaded in WWII.

Finland was not invaded. Soviet Union tried twice to invade Finland (second attempt with material help of USA), but their attack, their attempt to invade Finland was halted by the Finnish Army. And we are thankful to Germany that gave Finland much needed antitank weapons and provided other support.

Germany vs Soviets ALONE: Who would have won?

I think it is a language barrier, because in English an invasion is when a military force crosses the border into another nation. The Soviet Union invaded Finland during the Winter War in 1939 and then again in 1944. Both times Finnish troops stopped the Red Army and both times Finland was forced to give up territory.

I believe you are confusing invasion with occupation. Poland was invaded and occupied by foreign troops. Finland was invaded but was able to prevent total defeat although they were forced to give up territory. Twice.

And I'm sure you are aware the Finnish army then fought the Germans who were unwilling to leave Finland in the Lapland War.

That is a pretty bad video, mainly because of the computer generated voice. But if Germany had been able fight the Soviet Union one on one I agree they could have beaten them. But for that to happen someone would have had to kill Hitler before 1938. Because after Hitler signed the Munich Agreement and then violated it within 6 months there is no way Britain agrees to peace with Germany. Adolf Hitler was a liar and how many times do you make a deal with with a liar that doesn't honor the agreements they make.

And without that little shitstain it is probable that WWII could have been avoided altogether. But with Hitler as Fuhrer Germany never gets the opportunity to fight the Soviets one on one. Never, Hitler is the one who had Germany isolated and alone with only a few weak countries on his side. And none of them could provide the oil and other natural resources Germany needed to fight the war.

NeoNazis and Hitler fanboys hate Churchill for standing up to Hitler but he would have been a fool make peace with Germany with Hitler as its leader. And without the British blockade Germany could import the resources they needed. But just as in WWI the British blockade deprived Germany of the raw materials required for war and the British were the deciding factor in the war.

"And I'm sure you are aware the Finnish army then fought the Germans who were unwilling to leave Finland in the Lapland War."

Finland received much needed weapons from Germany. The mutual understanding between Germany and Finland was that this military help was given to Finland on terms that Finland would not conclude a separate armistice with the Soviet Union. The president of Finland(Risto Ryti) was bound by the agreement. But it was not binding the Parliament. Eventually Finland concluded a separate armistice with the Soviet Union in 1944, much to Germanys disappointment. They felt betrayed. Finland and Germany were brothers in arms in 1941-1944.

The video is actually quite good. Its very difficult to find good material of WWII on youtube because so much has been censored.

We dont know what really would have happened if there would have been someone else instead of Churchill. Without Churchill Germany probably would have decided the fate of Europe.

If Germany would have succesfully invaded and occupied England this could have given the keys to victory for Germany. The question is how would Soviet Union and US have reacted if Germany would have been able to invade and occupy England. US probably would not have interfered, atleast not in 1940. Would there have been enough time to regroup and for buildup of forces for Germany. To transport German troops to the eastern border.

Im not concerned about nazis or neonazis. Im concerned about communists.

Well to be fair by the fall of 1944 it was clear that Germany would soon lose the war. Italy had already surrendered and the Red Army had destroyed Army Group Center and the Siege of Leningrad had ended.

I do find it odd that you would consider Germany and Finland "brothers in arms". Finland had only pushed the Soviets back to the original borders and didn't support Germany on the Eastern Front like Romania and Hungary did. The Finns pretty much stayed in Finland. Also in the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact Germany had agreed that Finland was in the communist Soviet sphere of influence green lighting the Soviet invasion in the Winter War.

As far as treaties, Germany had failed to honor any of their agreements so there was no reason for Finland to feel as if they were betraying Germany. Just ask the Poles, Chechs, British or Soviets who all had treaties with Germany, none of which Germany honored.

Finland was caught between Nazis and Communists during WWII which in the states we would call stuck between a rock and a hard place.

One of my favorite sources for WWII info is the Axis History Forum. They have a "What if" board that is full of intelligent people debating these type of questions:

Much better that a computer generated voice reading a neoNazi's version of history.

"I do find it odd that you would consider Germany and Finland "brothers in arms".

Also in the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact Germany had agreed that Finland was in the communist Soviet sphere of influence green lighting the Soviet invasion in the Winter War."

Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was essentially for both Germany and Soviet Union to win time. Germany had their sights on Soviet Union already, but were not militarily strong enough at the time when the pact was signed.

According to the book "In the eye of the storm" that is based on Mannerheims secret files, it was Hitlers ultimatum against Soviet Union in 1940 that stopped the Red Army from eventually invading Finland. Finland as you well know as you mentioned earlier, fighting alone, almost out of ammo and the troops were exhausted.

So what force deterred Stalin from occupying Finland? According to this book it was Hitlers ultimatum that saved Finland in the last minute.

The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact didnt mean a thing anymore in 1941 when operation Barbarossa commenced.

The operation Barbarossa was a pre-emptive strike or move against the Soviet Union. If it werent for Germany, there would not have been anything to stop Soviet Union from invading and occupying most of mainland Europe.

"Finland was caught between Nazis and Communists during WWII which in the states we would call stuck between a rock and a hard place."

There was not much to choose from. It was a life and death struggle for Finland.

US chose to give aid and comfort to the bastion of communism, the Soviet Union.

You found me out!! If it comes down to spending time on GLP or time with the old lady, I'll be here on GLP everytime.
