You do like gross exagerations don't you. The
allied landings clearly played a role in the final stages of the war. Saying they didn't is demonstrating either incredible delusion, massive ignorance, or an under bridge habitat.

The fact of the landing speaks for itself, as the US and British Govts. both acknowledged the fact that Germany lost and the whole of Europe was about to be occupied by the Red Army soon. Landing ( second front ) was the last attempt to save what was left of Europe from the inevitable Soviet occupation.

There was very little danger of the Red Army occupying all of Europe. If it was as certain as you make out why did Stalin keep pressing for the invasion?
