Hmm, Anne I'm not gonna disagree outright with you, but consider this: do you
think think it was only -1- thing that brought about the end of Hitlers "1000
year Reich"? For example, from your paragraph above - one at a time - take
out the Americans.... Would the Allies still have won? Put the US back in,
remove the British (who can read about the Battle of Britain and not have
their heart beat faster I ask!)...would the Allies still have won? Do the
same for other events...
IMHO, and I'm no expert, mind you - but it was a combination of several
important events and decisions. Where would we be now if Germany had not
opened a 2nd front against Russia? Or even something with even more
implications - what if Germany had developed "heavy" water before us? The
list goes on and on and on...
Like I said - food for thought.... :-)
