Personally I would have preferred that we were successfully invaded by Hitler rather than seeing the death toll of 59,000,000 develop as a result of resisting him.

People, especially the villainous generation that were responsible for that war, forget that the UK's greatest talent lies in subversion and integration.

Had the Nazi's have invaded, they would have been quietly defeated by attrition and resistance in the occupied territories. Much as we and the Americans are being defeated now.

The WWII generation were responsible for a death toll that, at one point, came close to beating general disease as the number one killer of humans on earth.

The sooner that generation are gone and forgotten the better. They have nothing to be proud about, we have nothing to celebrate on their behalf.

The truth behind the reality of WW2 is often obscured by those who either have a financial interest in the war industry or are simply too ignorant to know their history.

There is very little evidence that Hitler intended an invasion of the UK
The Germans wanted the British Empire to continue as part of a bigger EU style trading block
The Nazis were financed by the German arms industry who were the only people along with the Rothschild family who wanted a war.
Churchill needed a war to regenerate a failing political career.

The one country that was not included in the Pan-Germanic unification aim was the United Kingdom, in spite of its near-universal acceptance by the Nazi government as being part of the Germanic world.

Leading Nordic ideologist Hans F. K. Günther theorized that the Anglo-Saxons had been more successful than the Germans in maintaining racial purity, thanks to Britain's island nature, with interbreeding between the Germanic conquerors and the subjugated Celtic nations being only marginal in effect. Furthermore, the coastal and island areas of Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall and Wales had received additional Nordic blood through Norse raids and colonization during the Viking Age, and the Anglo-Saxons of Eastern and Northern England had been under Danish rule in the 9th and 10th centuries. Günther referred to this historical process as Aufnordung ("additional nordification"), which finally culminated in the Norman conquest of England in 1066. Britain was thus a nation created by struggle and the survival of the fittest among the various Aryan peoples of the isles, and was able to pursue global conquest and empire-building because of its superior racial heredity born through this development.


Hitler professed an admiration for the imperial might of the British Empire in Zweites Buch as proof of the racial superiority of the Aryan race, hoping that Germany would emulate British "ruthlessness" and "absence of moral scruples" in establishing its own colonial empire in Eastern Europe. One of his primary foreign policy aims throughout the 1930s was to establish a military alliance with both the English (Hitler conflated England with Britain and the United Kingdom in his writings and speeches) as well as the Italians to neutralize France as a strategic threat to German security for eastward expansion. In this arrangement the two "kindred folks" were to divide the world between each other with Germany dominating continental Europe, while England would reign supreme over the world’s oceans.
When it became apparent to the Nazi leadership that the United Kingdom was not interested in a military alliance, anti-British policies were adopted to ensure the attainment of Germany’s war aims. Even during the war however, hope remained that Britain would in time yet become a reliable German ally. Hitler preferred to see the British Empire preserved as a world power, because its break-up would benefit other countries far more than it would Germany, particularly the United States and Japan. In fact, Hitler's strategy during 1935-1937 for winning Britain over was based on a German guarantee of defence of the British Empire. After the war, Ribbentrop testified that in 1935 Hitler had promised to deliver twelve German divisions to the disposal of Britain for maintaining the integrity of her colonial possessions.
The continued military actions against Britain after the fall of France had the strategic goal of making Britain 'see the light' and conduct an armistice with the Axis powers, with July 1, 1940 being named by the Germans as the "probable date" for the cessation of hostilities. On May 21, 1940, Franz Halder, the head of the Army General Staff, after a consultation with Hitler concerning the aims envisaged by the Führer during the present war, wrote in his diary: "We are seeking contact with Britain on the basis of partitioning the world".
One of Hitler's sub-goals for the invasion of Russia was to win over Britain to the German side. He believed that after the military collapse of the USSR, "within a few weeks" Britain would be forced either into a surrender or else come to join Germany as a "junior partner" in the Axis.Britain's role in this alliance was reserved to support German naval and aerial military actions against the USA in a fight for world supremacy conducted from the Axis power bases of Europe, Africa and the Atlantic.[108] On August 8, 1941, Hitler stated that he looked forward to the eventual day when "England and Germany [march] together against America" and on January 7, 1942 he daydreamed that it was "not impossible" for Britain to quit the war and join the Axis side, leading to a situation where "it will be a German-British army that will chase the Americans from Iceland". Nazi ideologist Alfred Rosenberg hoped that after the victorious conclusion of the war against the USSR, Englishmen, along with other Germanic nationalities, would join the German settlers in colonizing the conquered eastern territories.
From a historical perspective Britain’s situation was likened to that which the Austrian Empire found itself in after it was defeated by the Kingdom of Prussia in the Battle of Königgratz in 1866. As Austria was thereafter formally excluded from German affairs, so too would Britain be excluded from continental affairs in the event of a German victory. Yet afterwards, Austria-Hungary became a loyal ally of the German Empire in the pre-World War I power alignments in Europe, and it was hoped that Britain would come to fulfill this same role.

Ok... i guess the intent of these people is admirable, but they are really, really naive.
Sorry - but the world doesn't work like that. Sad but true. If you can't deal with it, then you wont be able to survive in it.

Personally, I think the UK population would be horrified if we suddenly got rid of our defences.

The Argentinian people of the Malvinas Islands
You what? I believe the residents on the Falkland Islands favour the UK, not Argentina.

>> We shall ensure there is legislation making it a criminal offence for any government to raise an Army, Navy or Air Force regardless of the circumstances. Without a military there are no wars.

Without a military there are no wars? Ok, so how are you going to enforce this legislation onto other countries who have a military? What if they so "no thanks, we'll keep ours"
I think you are being naive.


>> Personally I would have preferred that we were successfully invaded by Hitler rather than seeing the death toll of 59,000,000 develop as a result of resisting him.

Well, I personally don't think that. It seems, looking at history, that the people who lived through it didn't think that either. Your viewpoint is a victim mentality. A policeman friend of mine told me about a student who got "mugged" by someone for their phone. Turns out this "mugger" was about 4 feet tall / 11 years old. A victim mentality is not being able to stick up for yourself which someone threatens you with violence and theft. Hitler tried it on, and people said "no". Also - I probably woundn't be born if it wasnt for the war - so I have no interest in going back in time and changing things.

>> Had the Nazi's have invaded, they would have been quietly defeated by attrition and resistance in the occupied territories. Much as we and the Americans are being defeated now.
Oh really? Is that a fact? I guess the people who lived during this era decided otherwise.

>> The WWII generation were responsible for a death toll that, at one point, came close to beating general disease as the number one killer of humans on earth.

Yes. I don't see how you are suggesting it could of been avoided though apart from a "well.... they should of just shook hands shouldn't they". Yes, but they didn't. Facts of life. Not fantasy wishful thinking.
