ok so France didn't do a damn thing when the country right next to them was building up a massive army and goes and complains to GB?? Oh yeah then because they didn't want Paris to get violated they laid down there guns and cried. Oh yeah I won't be too hard on them. Way for France to not make a play and place the blame on someone else.

ok lets say Hilter didn't invade Russia then please explain to me how Germany was going to fair against Atom Bombs which we developed not long after D-Day???
Bottom line without Russia even if Germany stopped America dead in its tracks it was simply a matter of time till we nuked them into submission.
There was a tech race for building a physics based weapon between America and Germany and we all know who won that. Even if we did use German scientists

?!?!?!
you mean got invaded by Germany and added to there supply of raw materials....so when America entered the war Germany had significantly more military power and development. Germany was still building at a massive rate in 39 foo, its not like they were like
"up all our units are ready and we won't build anymore as we take over more raw material sorces from these countries we just dominated"
Last I checked Hilter took over all of Europe in a matter of 2 years, sounds like you guys put up a hell of a fight

imagine Germany bombs Britain for 2 more weeks?
They beat them, Churchill didnt have much longer to hold, he got lucky Hitler got pissed and attacked Russia. As for the atom bomb...if it came down to your idea of them bombing us into sumbmission, they would have developed the atom bomb too. they were close but hitler wanted a quick war so he ceased the development, they would have also got it, and it would have turned into a cold war type environment

France didn't have a choice. They complained all right, but Britain would never back them in a war, and they weren't nearly powerful enough to go it alone. France's power was broken in WW1.
And you have to realize that France took the full brunt of the blitzkreig tactics when the war started. Germany knew it couldn't survive two sieges, so it needed a 'knockout blow' of sorts. France was far weaker than Germany was, and still took the entire shot. It's like saying the Japanese are pussies because they couldn't take a nuke.
I will admit I'm biased towards the French because they have the best history I think... and until the French revolution, they ran Europe completely.
Actually, if you want to get into details, the French actually bankrupted themselves helping the US become a nation. It was shortly after the US war of independance that the Franco Prussian war happened and the Germans (Prussians at that time), destroyed the last semblance of French military power.'You don't make friends with salad'

LOL
oh yes because somehow in the burning ruins of your cities your going to manage to magically build an atom bomb which you were already trying to produce..
America beat you to the atom bomb and we would have produced many before you could have produced one. Then the widespread damage caused would cripple any attempts Germany had of finishing the technology. Its not like you magically level up and gain an equal weapon. Can you explain to me how you would have produced one as your cities were turning to ash daily???
Germany was TRYING to make an A Bomb they never finished

Germans were ahead of US in building weapon of mass destruction, but duo to attacks from Russians and USA they lost equipment needed to build a bomb and lost a race. There even was a documentary on history channel about German ship which got bombed or shot down in middle of antarctica, it was said that if that ship would have made it back to it destination US would lost the race.

what do you think, they just burned all there research, they stopped development, that doesnt mean they lost their buildups. they would merely need a little longer to develop them. And your nuke theory sucks hard. America only had 2 developed when it bombed Japan, and the only reason they went down was because they had no ally and thought we had more. Germanys new found territory was much larger and would be like bombing russia twice, it would do nothing. Plus in this genious example of yours, Japan is still in the war, and would get atomic weponry from Germany, aswell and the allies getting it from the USA. It would have been a nuclear war with no victors
