doxijaw: In the aftermath of the firat world war Germany was forced to give up its colonies round the world and end the kind of sovereignty Britain, France and Portugal enjoyed. So in the second war it had to fight to regain territory and Africa was in its cross hairs. By starting in North Africa Hitler aimed to destroy the British and thus protect the southern flank of his empire. Then he will move eastwards into the arabian peninsula, drive the British out and take control of the vast oil resources present there. Make no mistake about it. Hitler had a plan of world domination and knew the risks of taking on the entire world simultaneously but as time went by and the Allies grouped his plans went out the window. Hitler had no regards for Africa anymore than the colonists before. He will have done exactly the same, plundering her resources and enslaving her people, just to a much more severe degree, afterall he referred to blacks as sub-human and mocked the allied powers for conscripting some into their armies. So he will have made Africa one huge concentration camp and perhaps fikkes the continent with not a few Dr. Mengele's. Perhaps today we will be seeing a few brothers and sisters with tails, three or four legs, horns and hooves. The Nazis were pure evil. 2 Likes |

Etinosa1234: You are not entirely correct too. Yes, between the wars Hitler had great respect for Britain. He saw in the monarchy the kind of stability he so desired of himself and his country. But he also knew ot would be impossible to keep Britain out of Europe again ao he had plans to take Britain but only if he was large enough to withstand America because he knew America would not allow Britain to fall. His hands were forced when he began attacking American flag ships resupplying Britain and when his ally in Japan foolishly attacked Pearl habour his time began to run down. He had plans to take down Britain but only when he was fully prepared. He was never able to max out his military. However you are right. If Britain was on continental Europe the war on the western front would have been done and dusted by 1940. But if Britain was on continental Europe America as we know it today will also not exist. 1 Like |

ThreeEyedRaven: Bro, I am not sure you know the meaning of war. Better thank God for whatever circumstances you find yourself now. Because it is far better than to be in the middle of a war. Because during a war, you will die many times before your time. Let us even put the World War aside. If you have anyone who witnessed the Civil War on the Eastern side, interview them. I have done that. And I tell you, nothing like peace. Even if there is hunger, at least you manage your hunger in peace. You sleep without fear that an aeroplane will drop bomb over your house. But in a war... You have a bunker that you all run to when you hear zum zum (that is, the Federal troops advancing). You have to be constantly on the move. When you hear "they are at the outskirts", you have to start preparing to move. Like someone told me, sometimes they will be making food. Then they will start hearing the planes dropping the bombs. They have to pack the pot of soup as well because they couldn't afford to waste it. My brother, war no be moinmoin o. Appreciate whatever circumstances you find yourself now because it is far better than being in war. 1 Like |

seunny4lif: Lol... U think the war was fought only on the western Front? Did u know how hard Germans fought on D-DAY? Even in africa, when Rommel was dealing with British and American forces,did u know how hard they fought to liberate Africa... Now let's talk about the Japanese... Those ones were more brutal ... A past American soldier noted that the Japanese were the only ones who actually fought to the last man... Watch hacksaw Ridge and get a graphical imagination of how that was... Guy America fought on all fronts except the East... They were the ones who changed the war... If America and other forces didn't open the western Front, Soviet union would have been taken because Hitler would have concentrated all his forces on them... German forces were mainly overstretched.. But they were prepared for the war |

Reference: Perfect... Another thing to add is that Stalin also begged the Americans to open a western Front... Russian army was not even prepared or that strong for the war... Even small Finland was showing them pepper.. The saving grace of Russia was their land mass.....and that was what killed Hitler and also Napoleon 3 Likes |

Reference: Hitler actually underrated Britain... On seeing that he was losing the battle of Britain, he started bombing major cities like London and Coventry which was not originally part of his plan He had a major plan for Britain but he cut it short because he had to face Russia completely |

When they have to worry about everything, hustle under the harsh weather, board the stressful transport, ply the rickety roads, harassed by uncivilized police and military, everything sucks....no water, no light, don't be surprised Russia was better than here during the war.

IMAliyu:. I think it's mainly because the Germans were the major villains in the war with the spotlight placed on Hitler.... Those Japs were more cruel... If not for the two atomic bombs that America dropped, they would have kept on fighting till 1946 Those Japs oppressed the Chinese, Koreans, Soviets, Myanmar etc... ..

Where did you get that crap from? How many military men did in North Africa? Do you know many people die in Operation Barbosa? I have been to East front. Hilter mistake was delaying the Moscow operation for his men to secure the oil in the east and by time they were on their way to Moscow, winter is on the way. He thinks the war will be over in 4 months but the USSR don’t give up Etinosa1234: |

Who is talking about the pact here? How did Russia attacked Europe first? When Hilter wanted Poland? Fact is Stalin was preparing for a war with Japan and the Far East was were the best USSR military men were located and when Stalin Generals were telling him about the Germans movement, Stalin thought the Gens and his senior military men wanted his post, so he killed them and send some to Siberia.

PericomaNwankwo:quite true .In nigeria there are a number of ppl who look like other picture op put up but then nigeria is not in a physical war but in psychological war.prices of food have gone up,many families can't feed,insecurity all over nigeria with the end result that many ppl look much older than their biologic age.u see a young man of 24 have deep wrinkles all over his face with his eyes blood shot and sunken.the same person will travel out to the US or UK and his physical appearance will change suddenly..he becomes younger looking,his dull skin becomes glossy,his eyes becomes brightened ,all the the wrinkles disappear and u notice the change all over his body.we all always argue that overseas is stressful and the US is a living hell but then why is it that nigerians when they come back from there they don't look someone who passed through hell 1 Like |

seunny4lif: Its like u don't understand my point... I said the western Front was pivotal in the allies win during the world war. ... The Russian advance or pursuit of the Germans became much quicker when the western Front was opened A lot of men died in Africa and would have continued to die if Hitler had actually seen the use of africa.. Research abt Erwin Rommel.. He was nicknamed the desert Fox because of his ability to manoeuvre ... He defeated the allies even tho overwhelmed that Patton had to study his tactics... What abt the battle in Pacific.. u think those Japs were joking |

The Japanese were more brutal and the war over there was crazy because more Japanese committed suicide than those killed by allied. Yes, if Hilter discovered early that Africa own the biggest oil and resources, he wouldn’t have attacked the USSR hereby saving his troops to take over North Africa from British and French troops Etinosa1234: |
