Re: Britain & France don't declare war on Germany
Getting back to the topic.
Just to add that as my previous post, if Germany attacks the Soviets in 1941, then all those divisions that otherwise would have been sent to France, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Norway and Denmark are now situated on the Soviet/German-Axis frontier totaly intact, this would be the deployment of an additional 5 to 6 Armies either in the innitial offensive or held in reserve, also the Luftwaffe is totally intact this deployment would have at least 5 to 6 Luftflottes all told, then we would have the Kriegsmarine operating in the Baltic and North Sea, while the Italians without having to worry about Britain and France could send her navy into the Black Sea.
Then there other tangibles such as German and Italian industries being unmolested by allied bombing, also the Roumanian Oilfields running at full capacity. Another question is this would Britain and France be so willing to send arms to the Soviet Union after the Soviets had invaded Finland, considering the Britain did send equipment to Finland. But i would see in all this that Britain and France would not sit by and do nothing, they would make preperations to defend themselves.
Without any help what so ever, An intact Germany and her Axis Allies would eventually destroy the Soviets.
