Hitler's Baffling Decision

[Bazile]

Hitler had the British forces trapped and surrounded at Dunkirk .

Yet he didn't, (to the  fury of his generals )give the order to ' take them out ' ( thank god )

This decision has baffled historians ever since , who consider that his decision caused  him to lose WW2

One theory is that the British upper class was sympathetic with the nazi ideology and Hitler was keen to broker a deal to leave Britain alone - hence Rudolph Hess trip to Scotland .

What sort of world would we be living in now , if he had made the alternative decision 

 

[Peter Pedant]

I have little doubt that Europe would be a much better place now if Germany had won WWII.

history doesnt support that in their treatment of POland 1939, Ukraine 1941, or Hungary 1944 - but hey this is AB

Its all hypothetical,isnt it.We cant change history.But we can learn from any mistakes in our past.
