IMO- FWIWIP-- Hitler could well have won WW11 had he not made these mistakes (and I may only be scratching the surface here-not in any impacting order as to the final outcome- (1) Declaring War on America 4 days after America declared war against Japan- as if we had any choice--After FDR sealed Japan's fate as Dastards in the World Theatre-Pacific anyway-- (2) Relying on his post-WW1 cronies loyal to him while in Landesburg Prison and cranking out Mein Kampf: Hess and Goering, later Himmler- a non-WW1 Vet., mainly due to weak eyesight--(3 Trusting, at least for a while, the rabid homosexual Ernst Rohm SA (Sturm Abelting und Stoss Trupen Fuhrer)- until Himmler founded the SS and then the Waffen SS--(4) Allow the Jews to work in certain industries-some of the Jews (Albert Einstein) working in engineering and scientific fields, could have greatly advanced the WunderWaffen programs- (5) linking the German forces with Mussolini- a true "paper tiger" as Ethiopia and other Desert capers proved- (6) stayed away from the "Final Solution fiasco, saved the material and other cost factors that were involved in building Dachau, Sobibor, Auschwitz, Treblinka- and let the Jews serve in the HerrenVolk units- and die in combat against the Allies- (7) Trying to invade Russia in his crazed quest for Lebensraum- (8)Have Canaris and the Abwehr run a tighter ship re: The Enigma code machines- when a Sub was sunk in the North Sea, The British got an intact machine from the Captain's safe, unreported as missing-- big mistake-- very costly-- Der Fuchs
