Correct about auto-men and brits. They were still not completely "independent after 1948 though, at least in practice.

It was under USSR tutelage VERY briefly during 1948 and their independence war against the arab coalition. Stalin was hoping to turn them to his side but noticed rapidly that it wasn't gonna happen so he turned his back, but his support was crucial during that delicate period. It is why he is occasionally referred as the "unofficial godfather of Israel".

Then they were adopted by the French and DeGaulle all the way to 1967 and the 6 day war. DeGaulle stopped suppoeting them due to change of diplomacy post free-algeria. Also the suez canal crisis was desastrous for them and distance made sense.

Then the US swept in as patron and hasn't really left since. How can the arab league manlets even compete?

Did Germany ever really have a realistic chance at winning WW2? The more I read about it the more it seems there was no way in hell they'd could have won unless every single domino fell their way.

Even after they ended up getting lucky with France, there's no guarantee they could have even beaten the Soviets on their own, let alone with British and US help. If their gambit with France worked, and they managed to collapsed the USSR like Hitler originally wanted, could they have won then? There was still the US, Britain, and all of their allies. There was still Free France, and who knows what resistance the Soviets would have mounted. The Allies would have had complete naval superiority as well as air superiority.

No.

>If their gambit with France worked, and they managed to collapsed the USSR like Hitler originally wanted, could they have won then?

Probably not. They still have no realistic means of striking decisively at the UK, let alone the U.S.. If nothing else, the war likely ends with atomic fire over Berlin.

Germany lost the war as soon as they set up the political situation that made incremental peace impossible.

If there was no lend-lease, as well as no America at all, then probably. Of course the government Hitler made wasn't sustainable at all.

They could win a small scale war not a world War. Basically Germany could eventually win an Anglo French German war.

World War I marks one of the great watersheds of modern history. With its end the transformation of the entire Western world from monarchical rule and sovereign kings to democratic-republican rule and sovereign people that began with the French Revolution was completed. Unti11914, only three republics had existed in Europe-France, Switzerland, and after 1911, Portugal; and of all major European monarchies only the United Kingdom could be classified as a parliamentary system, i.e., one in which supreme power was vested in an elected parliament. Only four years later, after the United States had entered the European war and decisively determined its outcome, monarchies all but disappeared, and Europe along with the entire world entered the age of democratic republiCanism. In Europe, the militarily defeated Romanovs, Hohenzollems, and Habsburgs had to abdicate or resign, and Russia, Germany, and Austria became democratic republics with universal-male and female-suffrage and parliamentary governments. Likewise, all of the newly created successor states with the sole exception of Yugoslavia adopted democratic republican constitutions. In Turkey and Greece, the monarchies were overthrown. And even where monarchies remained nominally in existence, as in Great Britain, Italy, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, and the Scandinavian countries, monarchs no longer exercised any governing power. Universal adult suffrage was introduced, and all government power was vested in parliaments and "public" officials.

The world-historic transformation from the ancien regime of royal or princely rulers to the new democratic-republican age of popularly elected or chosen rulers may be also characterized as that from Austria and the Austrian way to that of America and the American way. This is true for several reasons. First, Austria initiated the war, and America brought it to a close. Austria lost, and America won. Austria was ruled by a monarch-Emperor Franz Joseph-and America by a democratically elected president-Professor Woodrow Wilson. More importantly, however, World War I was not a traditional war fought over limited territorial objectives, but an ideological one; and Austria and America respectively were (and were perceived as such by the contending parties) the two countries that most clearly embodied the ideas in conflict with each other.
>>
World War I began as an old-fashioned territorial dispute. However, with the early involvement and the ultimate official entry into the war by the United States in April 1917, the war took on a new ideological dimension. The United States had been founded as a republic, and the democratic principle, inherent in the idea of a republic, had only recently been carried to victory as the result of the violent defeat and devastation of the secessionist Confederacy by the centralist Union government. At the time of World War I, this triumphant ideology of an expansionist democratic republicanism had found its very personification in then U.S. President Wilson. Under Wilson's administration, the European war became an ideological mission-to make the world safe for democracy and free of dynastic rulers. When in March 1917 the U.S.- allied Czar Nicholas n was forced to abdicate and a new democratic-republican government was established in Russia under Kerensky, Wilson was elated.
>>
With the Czar gone, the war had finally become a purely ideological conflict: of good against evil. Wilson and his closest foreign policy advisors, George D. Herron and Colonel House, disliked the Germany of the Kaiser, the aristocracy, and the military elite. But they hated Austria. As Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn has characterized the views of Wilson and the American Left, II Austria was far more wicked than Germany. It existed in contradiction of the Mazzinian principle of the national state, it had inherited many traditions as well as symbols from the Holy Roman Empire (double-headed eagle, black-gold colors, etc.); its dynasty had once ruled over Spain (another bite noire); it had led the Counter-Reformation, headed the Holy Alliance, fought against the Risorgimento, suppressed the Magyar rebellion under Kossuth (who had a monument in New York City), and morally supported the monarchical experiment in Mexico. Habsburg-the very name evoked memories of Roman Catholicism, of the Armada, the Inquisition, Metternich, Lafayette jailed at Olmiitz, and Silvio Pellico in Briinn's Spielberg fortress. Such a state had to be shattered, such a dynasty had to disappear."

Was Moscow really that powerful they knew about the most secret projects in the US? How is that even possible? We were lucky that they weren't crazy, but what if they were?

I've heard Stalin knew about the bomb even before some of Roosevelts closest government members did. That's really disturbing.

how do we deal with the loss of media? like TV shows, movies and videogames being lost forever to time? many have already suffered this fate, and I cant help but think that's sad, I feel like there should be a vault for these things

and that's without talking about the eventual death of high works of art like sculptures, paintings and texts, will the originals really be lost forever? are copies the only things that will survive?
