If it looks like a duc...<i>It looked like conquest...</i><br /><br />If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck... Not saying there were weren't motives or justifications such as you describe, but the whole Nazi concept of Lebensraum was given a lot of propaganda play in the Home Market, no? <br /><br />Still and even, today the Germans are industrious and sensible people.

France and England were as much a part of the start of the war. But the Armistice crippled Germany economically. Mein Kampf was written after France invaded Germany in 1923 (Wikipedia has it as "Occupation of the Ruhr" which France did because Germany wasn't paying like they said they would, and France decided to just take the coal.<br /><br />Anyway, World War #2 was the direct result of Germany deciding that no country surrounding its borders could ever threaten them again. It looked like conquest, but it was really just meant to defeat them militarily, so they could never invade the fatherland again.<br /><br />Germany got smart. Now they own all the Euros and let NATO worry about the defense expenses.<br /><br />When the chips are down, choose Germany. Every other country in Europe is on welfare.Pepilepewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-30539487078530945182012-05-11T16:01:53.610-06:002012-05-11T16:01:53.610-06:00Well...France did beat the shit out of the Germans...<i>Well...France did beat the shit out of the Germans. </i><br /><br />With a lil help from their friends, the last time out.
