Yeah, I guess. But of course the Nazis were pieces of shit either way, so ...

I know that some Jews actually did try presenting as Muslims in an attempt to save themselves from the Nazis. Muslims, like Jews, were also circumcised. But also that these attempts generally failed. Still, if that was the Nazis' fear, why not shoot all Muslims rather than only shooting Central...

What exactly was the point of shooting Central Asians? The Nazis were not anti-Muslim to my knowledge--were they?

When will the Oradour-sur-Glane info become declassified? As a side note, I actually do approve of some Allied terrorism during WWII, such as killing Reinhard Heydrich. That I think needed to be done. Though when one thinks about the Lidice reprisals, even then, one is unsure. That article...

Bombing the rail lines I'm not sure would have done too much good since those rail lines could have simply been rebuilt--unless you're suggesting bombing them again and again and again? Interestingly enough, there's a theory that the Allies misled Hungary with overly optimistic hopes about what...

I'll respond to the rest of what you wrote here in a bit, but in regards to the Jews for trucks deal, the Allies obviously and quite understandably had no intention of trading Jews in order to strengthen the Nazis' war effort. FWIW, I myself would have likewise refused the Jews for trucks deal...

And American Jewish organizations could no longer feed Polish Jews after the US had already entered the war, right? Not even having them send food aid to Poland through, say, neutral Switzerland would have actually been good enough for this, right? And Yeah, the problem for the Allies is that...

What I meant was that did the US and Soviet Union continue providing food aid to Nazi Germany until Nazi Germany actually became at war with those two countries?

Was it the US and Soviet entries into the war that stopped the delivery of food from those countries to Germany?

What do you think would have happened to the Jews under Nazi rule had France not fallen in 1940 and thus there would have never actually been any Operation Barbarossa?

You're saying that the commanding French general lied to the French government about the state of France's finances? Why exactly would he do that?

Do you mean in 1936? Because France lacked British support and was apparently also in a state of severe financial crisis back then. Though even if it had done so, Hitler might have remained in power unless the French would have actually been wlling to march all of the way to Berlin. Just how...

They feared eventual German aggression, presumably. I guess that the French valued their own security above LoN rules, similar to Germany when it decided to withdraw from the LoN in late 1933? I mean having Germany recognize its eastern as well as its western borders.

Which pledges did France make in regards to disarmament, exactly? And actually, one could view France's Eastern European security structure as being perfectly compatible with Locarno since Locarno refused to guarantee Germany's eastern borders, which meant that there would have needed to be some...

The Anglo-French could also rely on Indians, Africans, Arabs, and Indochinese, no? How did France violate the spirit of Locarno, exactly? And FWIW, Yes, I would agree that the Soviet Union was a better ally for the Anglo-French in comparison to Poland. So, throwing Poland under the bus...

Who is HK? Did you mean HL, as in History Learner?

Not sure about Kennedy's work, but Tooze's work can also be found on LibGen.

You might be interested in this article: https://archive.ph/0B3au#comment-4558859 Here's how this article's author accesses the comprehensive military power of Germany, Britain, and France in 1940: I don't get the 0.00 figure for France in 1945, though. But otherwise it looks plausible for...

What would it have required to permanently keep Germany down after the end of WWI like some Americans, such as future US Senate Majority Leader Henry Cabot Lodge, apparently wanted to do back then? In your own honest opinion, I mean.

Yeah, I'd like to know that as well. Specifically what measure is he using for this?
