The War You Know

James will never be a Laker and actually nobody good wants to be a Laker.

Yes there is a point.  That point is WHEN YOU WIN.

I’m sure Eisenhower would have stood trial and been executed had the allies lost the war.

Interesting that at this point there are 2 votes down.  I wonder if you had said “I’m sure Churchill would have stood trial and been executed had the allies lost the war.”  Would you still get two votes down?  Perhaps Roosevelt and Churchill were in the same category and Eisenhower being a military man is different.

Prem #1 What if the debt held by B2 was in the form of stocks of A1.  A1 could depreciate their stock in exchange for benefits that would derive from the borrowed money from B2.  You in fact get all the benefits from the loan and screw the lender.

Prem #2 B2 never required use of your patents called ControlledShippingLanes.  Now B2 requires use of this patent which A1 has spent a great deal of money investing in ‘lawyers’ and ‘updated patent modifications’ in order to defend the ControlledShippingLanes patent that most western companies require use of. Now that B2 now requires a ‘license’ to use the ControlledShippingLanes patent for various things, A1 now finds itself in a great position.

It does make for an interesting movie premise doesn’t it?

You can find a LOT of them by searching some of the well known ships and moving up the hierarchy at some sites to get the other ships.

How can somethinf that was banned after the “Lenin’s Bolsheviks” took the power be history “long before Lenin” ?

..In fact they were banned in 1921 after Lenins' Bolsheviks seized power in 1918\. Your "menshevik" thing was way back in History long before Lenin. ... Thats exactly why the brilliant Germans saw this opportunity to push the allready problematic Tsarist regime.

menshevik party started around 1900 pushing some reforms , while many of its members became dissatisfied with some of the ideas and broke off to form their own party called the Bolsheviks. Eventually these Bolsheviks came to power and banned all the other parties including menshevik party in 1921. My comment was you confused Lenin as a menshevik but he wasnt , he was Bolshevik. That party existed before the Bolsheviks started and got banned after they got into power. Thats your answer.

If Lenin was not released from a Swiss prison, its quite certain the revolution would not have suceeded w/o its charasmatic leader. So thats exactly why the Kaiser allowed it to occur … so he could destroy his enemy from within. Thats a brilliant concept.

@Imperious:

I still contend that FDR wouldn’t have waited for Japan to fall without a German DOW.  He would have gotten the Congress to declare war on both Japan and Germany (as Japan’s most powerful ally) then stripped Japan of that ally before defeating them.  It would have been the only way to save BritAIn (better F_alk?) from a successful, future German invasion.  He must have known the predicament Britain was in at that time because he was shuffling “volunteers” and weapons over as fast as he could to help them before the attack on Pearl.  Furthermore, we basically ignored the Japanese until Europe fell even after Pearl - the only excuse for this would be to save the Brits.

Could Germany have defeated Russia?  Yes, if the Brits and French had kept attempting appeasement instead of war, I think Germany could have successfully conquered the Russians, then turned on the French.

Yes i believe that can be argued as well with plausibility. After all this is speculative History!
OK i have two questions:

how much time would you expect a DOW from America to be made against Germany. What do you suppose Germany would be doing during the time before the DOW.

1)  I expect the DOW would be sent within that same year at least, probably before the second fiscal quarter.  Time was of the essense and FDR knew it.

2)  I really don’t have a clue.  If it were me I’d be setting up an invasion of England - but obviously Hitler wasn’t interested in doing that, he wanted them to surrender due to air assaults.  Being as that was the situation, I presume he’d continue is rocket attacks and bomber attacks while utilizing the majority of his ground pounders in Russia.

All I can say is, “This is amazing.” I can’t help but chuckle. :lol:
