Aye and didn't Hitler say in turn he wasn't going to invade France, Belgium, Holland, Poland or Russia.

Yeah youre right. However i think the war really changed Hitler (as it did many people and for good reason)
Hitler was actually quite a brave a solider from all accounts and people like that would not of liked the way WWI ended. And then to go back to Germany and be broke and homeless after serving must do crazy things to the mind. Well its very easy to point at a minority and blame them for their losses.
Thats obviously an over simplified version of events but if you read the history you see it was one small step followed by another until total catastrophe.
I cannot stress enough how grateful i am to off been born after that war, ive watched WWII documentaries in colour Jesus christ what devastation and cruelness.
They have conducted many borehole drilling taking ash samples over wide areas, this gave the authorise a good idea of the amount of bodies in a particular area.
As you suggested many of the Jews died of starvation and disease and that just saved the Germans from gassing them anyway
I think 3 thousand tonnes of ash is well short of the mark though it was more like 13 thousand. An average male produces around 6lb of ash and 4lb for a female and there are 2240 lbs in a ton. So taking a mean average of 5lb x 6,000,000 / 2240 = 13,392 tonne. Bearing in mind that the ash would also be distributed over a wide area due to high winds etc.
many prisoners on both sides died
many brave british soldiers were starved to death by the japs
i think to turn te world against hitler it was easier to say he gassed 6 million
but he never
something like 40-45 % of prisoners taken by the japs were starved or marched to there deaths
All anyone has to remember is.....history is written by the victors.
Well the Allied Forces won the war but if you look at spoils of war Russia took over Sakhalin Island from Japan this area has huge oil and gas reserves and is still one of Russia’s biggest producers
Us on the other hand ended up with a huge amount of debt but we are all still speaking English instead of German.
We are all reliant on stories and story tellers in every historical event...or non-event, as it may be.
From ancient battles to ancient builds, to recent historical wars to recent historical events. All we can go on are the stories pertaining to what we are told is the reality of it all or the closest to a known reality of ancient times.
However, regardless of us all arguing one thing or the other as a truth...all we can do is either be in acceptance of stuff based on emotional adherence to the story or the indoctrinated schooling or early school years and latter years of schooling...into the set out topics we were/are, all basically exam marked on...but thoroughly revised upon to gain the required marks from snippets of the entirety of the stories told.
It's not always a case of "but it did happen" as in wars and such....it's a case of in what format and for what real purpose for an end product of it all.
We can only postulate.
Only a fly on the wall knowledge of any and all of it can reap the truth of something.
