why was he so clever from 1933-39 and then after that became retarded?
>>
>>18061508
He was a better politician than commander in chief.

He did zero mistakes, his hand was forced for Barbarossa.

his hand was not forced

He was simply a marionette controlled by the strings of Providence

> why was he so clever from 1933-39
He wasn't? His early successes were due to others' appeasement. Once he ran out of their concessions, his true, reckless strategic incompetence was finally exposed for all.
>>
>>18061508
He wasn't clever. The Albions simply did not have an army and the French weren't willing to fight yet.
>>
He wasn't clever, it's just others were too gullible and weak to confront him. If Britain wasn't appeasing him the entire time and signing treaties behind France and Italy's backs he would have been crushed.
>>
>>18061667
>>18061681
>>18061684
If he wasn't so clever, why did everyone appeased him?
>>
Starting the war was his biggest mistake, he rushed into conflict but typical German nature, had to fight a 2 front war. If he played the waiting game,he'll eventually be the most successful, respected world leader and will take back Danzig and other former German territory.

facts
>>18061567
he was forced
>>18061634
he didnt know how badly the US and the UK ie jews wanted war. Hitler called FDR the greatest war criminal of all time.
>>18061700
Except he didnt start the war.

denmark, norway, luxembourg, netherlands, beligum, france, channel islands, Second Vienna Award, Tripartite Pact, Yugoslavia, Greece, operation barbarossa starting phase, his stand your ground directive that saved army group centere from a bloody route and collapse in winter, savastapol, starting case blue

yes op, clearly “retarded”

>>18061700
World War II started in 1931 in Manchuria by elements of the Japanese military disobeying the government. it spread later to Spain and Ethiopia. by september 1, 1939, there was still guerrilla warfare in spain and ethiopia and china had been in almost 8 years of conflict nonstop.
>>
>>18061508
There was no way to know Poland, Britain, and France were all literally going to act like a mafia and invade him.
>>18061556
This as well, although the easy answer is to deny it because the USSR was such a major force for the allies.
>>
>>18061508
Because he was a greedy retard who fafo.
>>18061994
If da jooz wanted a war they would've went to war over Czechslovakia in 1938. But instead they did nothing even when he took the rest of that country after lying and saying he wouldn't have have any more territory demands.
>>
Once war began, his poor strategic planning, ideological rigidity, and bad management were fully exposed.
>>
>>18061508
Once the war began, The Nazis were on a race for time. Hitler wasn't a terrible commander, but the lack of resources knee-capped the Nazi army before it even had a shot.
>>
>>18061508
He wasn't. Hjalmar Schachwas in charge of the economy from 34-37, at which point Hitler begins to lose popularity and invents ever more magnificent but doomed plans to stay in power.

He manages to keep it going for a grand total of 5 years, by which point the Nazis have already lost and its only a matter of time.

>stand your ground directive that saved army group centere from a bloody route and collapse in winter
hitler's insistence on standing ground absolutely bit them in the ass, however. tactical retreating to overstretch the enemy was exactly what the soviet union did in the latter phases of barbarossa to great effect. hitler's insistence on not giving up an inch of territory led to the encirclement and destruction of the 6th army, for example.

go into some of these plans, please? why was schachwas removed in 37, and why was hitler losing popularity?
i can already imagine some reasons (largely stagnant wages, rationing, iirc)
>>
>>18061556
>his hand was forced for Barbarossa.
By who you retard lmfao. He was the head honcho. HE WAS THE ONE who decided to INVADE THE USSR. Any cope about how they would've attacked first is purely speculative bullshit.
>why did everyone appeased him?
Because they were slugging it through an economic downturn and didn't want another war.

Da Jooz WERE asking for a war over Czechoslovakia thobeit.
>took the rest of that country
?????? Hacha asked to become a Reichsprotectorate.
>>
>>18064460
Hitler asked to become occupied by USSR and USA
>>
>>18063797

Soviets were already attacking dufus, Hitler explained all this at the time.
>>
>>18065711
Can I see this Soviet advancement that occured before Germany invaded Russia?
>>
>>18063792
Hitler put him in charge of the economy as a sensible conservative. He oversaw the work programs in the 30's that got Germany through most of the great depression. What Schachwas didn't know though is that all of these projects (like the autobahn) were actually being used as military build up. Hitler removed him because he wasn't in favor of war, or at least yet.
>>
>>18065711
Stalin was surprised by the invasion so this can't even be true by any logical criteria

Attacking people who don't fight back or can't win if they resist works better than attacking people stronger than you

Manchukuo was seized in 1931 but there was an uneasy peace (with occasional violations) until 1937
>>
>>18061512
No physical evidence for battle of stalingrad
>>
>>18061508
> clever
He got lucky. Allies were desperate to avoid another war and let him get away with shit for years. German economy was on steroids from rearmament and it was a house of cards.

> became retarded
He was always a meth-head gambler with a shit-tier ideology. His "genius" was bluffing against appeasers. Once he started a war with actual powers and invaded Russia, his dumbass strategy and micromanagement guaranteed the L.
>>
>>18066540
None of that is true. Their economy was the strongest in Europe and the Western colonial empires regularly tried to rope Germany’s neighbors into war. The French called for a preemptive war as early as 1937 against Germany.
>>
>>18061508
His enemies started seething and waged globar war against him.

He was an old Snowball junkie. Dr. Morell prescribed it well. The whole country had a meth comedown. Funny how Neo-Nazis are always inextricably bound to narratives of meth-farming. Hyperfixation, ideological delusions, moments of supreme clarity, efficiency and genius. But there's always a comedown.
>>
>>18061508
Anon, he was always retarded. It just took time to build enough tard momentum to reach cataclysmic levels of retardation.
>>18061994
He shouldn’t have attacked Poland if he didn’t want war. He was flat out told France and Britain would get involved at that point. That and nothing made him declare war on the US when Japan launched a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.

this. methhead catholics on a nordicist bender.
