>>3214204

I'm not an Anglo, but let's use Hitler's very own logic to see why Britain declared war on Germany:

>Hitler claims all Britain cares about is maintaining a balance of power in continental Europe
>Hitler claims a rising French power, foaming at the mouth for new riches and prestige, will alter this balance in her favour, prompting Britain to potentially ally with Germany and declare war on France
>This doesn't happen because the French were pretty fucking destroyed after WW1
>What does happen is Hitler changes the balance of power in Germany's favour by annexing Austria, rebuilding Germany's military, violating the Munich Agreement, and invading Poland on trumped-up charges despite the fact that Britain was treaty-bound to protect Poland

Surely, even a /pol/tard like you can see the irony in all this.

Attacking a country that outbuilds you about 8:1 when fighting on another front is unlikely to work at the best of times. To do so, while attacking another major power, when already embroiled in a land war that's pretty stalematey, is insane.

Okay, how is liberal Christianity a thing? I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't understand the philosophical reasoning for it. Christ said that the Church would be protected from the gates of Hell, which, implies to me that the Church won't fall to false doctrine. So, how do liberal, often gay-affirming Christians maintain that the Church was wrong for 20 centuries about homosexuality?

Pic related, some Episcopalian bishops (the Episcopal Church in the US is probably one of the most liberal denominations that can be described as high church).

Also Shakespeare wasn't a stoner because he was a very intelligent man who contributed greatly to society and didn't sit around like a mong, like lazy degenerate stoners do.

(1) We define God as something than which nothing greater can be thought
(2) God as just defined certainly exists as a concept, i.e. in the mind; even the atheist Fool must grant this.
(3) We *can* think of something which is greater than something existing only as a concept
(4) So: something than which nothing greater can be thought cannot exist *merely* as a concept. Ergo:
(5) God - that something than which nothing greater can be thought - exists in reality as well.

Bless y'all.

But you've only proven that the concept of God in my mind has to be thought to exist.
If there were a being which embodies the property of being maximally great in all qualities, then it would have to exist. That's nice and all, but doesn't prove that there actually is such a being.

During the 19th century, around 6 million Germans migrated to the United States for what I understand to be economic reasons (work opportunities, land grants, etc.). During the same century, less than a million French did the same. In 1871 when modern Germany was formed, it had a population of about 41,000,000 compared to France's then population of about 37,000,000. In addition to having relatively similar population sizes, Germany and France in 1871 also had relatively similar GDP per capita levels, at $1839 and $1876, respectively (numbers in 1990 international dollars and estimated by British economist Angus Maddison).

So my question is: What explains the huge difference in migration between Germans and French to the United States in the 19th century? Specifically, why did seemingly so few French come?

Because most of those Germans came from Prussia which was a militaristic shithole, unlike France.

>The Szilárd petition, drafted by scientist Leo Szilard, was signed by 70 scientists working on the Manhattan Project in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and the Metallurgical Laboratory in Chicago, Illinois. It was circulated in July 1945 and asked President Harry S. Truman to consider an observed demonstration of the power of the atomic bomb first, before using it against people. However, the petition never made it through the chain of command to President Truman. It also was not declassified and made public until 1961.

Hiroshima was a war crime and your scientists knew it. They were silenced by the ruthless US military. Apologize or your nation will die.

>A committee of presidential advisers had already decided that a public demonstration of an atomic bomb was too risky, because the weapon might not work; that Japan should not be given any warning of a nuclear attack, for much the same reason; that the bomb should be aimed at a war plant surrounded by workers' housing; and that the goal of the bombing would be "to make a profound psychological impression" on as many workers as possible.
>Franklin Roosevelt had never told his vice president, Harry Truman, about the Manhattan Project or the unusual weapon that it was developing. When Roosevelt died unexpectedly, on April 12, 1945, Truman had the thankless task of replacing a beloved and charismatic leader during wartime. The new president was unlikely to reverse a nuclear policy set in motion years earlier, at enormous expense, because a group of relatively unknown scientists now considered it a bad idea.
>[...] a full-scale invasion of Japan might require 1.8 million American troops.
>Unlike most presidents, Truman had firsthand experience of battle.
>>
>>3213686
We had already been firebombing Japan and making cities rubble for a long time. The Atomic bombs brought painless deaths to the majority they killed and saved hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers and millions of Japanese from an invasion.

The most fucked up part about the bombs is that people who were born and raised in Hiroshima and Nagasaki had no control over their deaths, because of the actions of their government and military they had almost no chance of surviving, their deaths set in stone as soon as the locations to be bombed were chosen.
>>
The effect of the Atomic Bombs on the formal surrender of Japan are greatly overstated. They were not the reason that Japan capitulated. If the destruction of cities was a pressing concern Japan would have surrendered when more than 3/4ths of their urban centers were being ground into dust by conventional bombing with no end in sight.

Posters often say that "the POWER of the atomic bombs, that they only need ONE to blow up a city instead of hundreds of regular bombs shook the Japanese leadership to the core", but this argument seems flimsy considering that there were hardly any urban areas left worth bombing with convention bombs, let alone an atomic bomb. Why would the Japanese High Command just now worry about their cities being destroyed well after most of them were already ash?

What happened to the Finnish SS after the Lapland War?

Back to Finland probably. The Belgian SS had a more tragic end game

IIRC the SS battalion came back to Finland in 43 so there weren't any formation in German lands at the start of Lapland war. Then you had some cases like that treasonous faggot Lauri Törni that joined the SS even when Finland was at war with Germany but they were court marshalled after the war.

Imagine creating a fucking Soviet in your SS unit, then your comander leaves you and you die in GULAG.
