Hitler let the Brits escape because he wanted a peace deal and though killing less of them would improve his chances. He was wrong because Churchill was a ZOG puppet.

anglo cowards abandoned their staunch ally france to let them be steamrolled by invading germans

Which is why he let the Luftwaffe strafe the hell out of them, right?
Hitler concurred with Rundstedt's stop order because a few tank formations ahead of their logistical chains and in need of a refit could not take on hundreds of thousands of soldiers without foot infantry support.

I wonder how those soldiers would have reacted if you had told them that no one - not even the French - would remember their sacrifice in the near future, let alone long term. It's disgusting and still baffles me how little attention that pocket resistance of French troops receive.

its not completely forgotten
Robert Merle, a novelist and ex soldier, taken prisoner at Dunkirk wrote a novel about it

Week-end at Zuydcoote

Tank divisions were running low on fuel and ammo and needed to let the rest of the army catch up after going through hundreds of kilometers into enemy territory alone.

French was still in the game and would've flanked them if they tried a stab at dunkirk, the local area is also terrible for armor so the generals just said fuck that shit and went for Paris instead.

I also once read the theory that Hitler's memories of WW1 made him believe that german panzers would sank in flemish marshes, so he ordered them to slow down

>>3116817
Their sacrifice is overshadowed by the embarrassing French strategy

Also the average person knows fuck all about anything in history.
Most people don't even know about what their grandparents did during the world wars. Even I vaguely know

>Great granddad present in a plethora of WW1 battles
>Granddad in Burma
>Grandma in Bletchely park, anti V1 bombs

Is this anglo perfidy I hear so much about?

>>3115553
Would Churchill have supported the Nazis if the Germans failed their initial invasion of France, and France counterattacked and looked like it was going to conquer Germany?

>>3115547
They feared the Germanic warrior

The German mechanized forces were out of gas and parts. The French fought really hard to protect the British retreat.

Plucky Blighty emerged victorious once again, saving a large number of Frogs in the process and leaving the Eternal Sausage Guzzler with a bloody nose.
