And I have pointed out here that Hitler already knew that war was inevitable after
Molotov's visit to Berlin in November 1940 and started preparing for this eventuality. But that does not mean that Hitler wanted war. He already was at war against everybody else against his will. But in June 1941 he was forced to attack knowing that a Soviet attack was immanent. That is what the word 'preempting' refers to. Hitler knew all along an attack was coming and prepared, but in June he
had to move. The Russians had massed troops and equipment near the border but at the same time put it in a very vulnerable position. Suvurov showed that the Germans could destroy a field filed with equipment with a single bomb thrown from an airplane. It may have been Hitler who strategically outmaneuvered with this Ribbentrop-Molotov pact, but it was Stalin who was completely surprised by the attack. Suvorov btw repeats that the division of Poland was an idea of Stalin, not of the Germans. The Germans merely wanted a non-agression agreement, Stalin wanted to border with Germany for the future. The next smart move of Stalin was to agree with the Germans to attack Poland on September 1. The Germans did,
but not the Russians, thus maneuvering Germany into war with Britain and France and be the villain on the world stage, until this day. Next let Germany defeat the Polish army and then 17 days later Stalin moved in on a vague pretext like protecting minorities, and make it appear as if the Soviets merely reacted to German actions, where in reality they had designed them. Stalin (and very likely the Americans in the background) had outmaneuvered Hitler.
Yesterday night I have been watching
the video of the talk Suvorow held in front of American naval 'elite', slumped in a chair, listening to this Russian former spy. Some snippets: on the German side it was 3000 tanks and
750,000 horses (the latter are never shown in Jewish/Hollywood propaganda movies since these are not very
Blitzy), against 21,000 Soviet state-of-the-art tanks (even amphibious ones). The Soviets had 6 million booklets printed that every Soviet soldier carried around with him, containing a little Russian-German dictionary with sentences like "do not be afraid, the Red Army is here to liberate you" or "what is the name of this village".

These phrases obviously are of no use for an army fighting in the vicinity of Smolensk.
Halfway his presentation Suvorow showed
this Soviet propaganda icon: a hammer and sickle projected on the entire world, not just the USSR. You will be hard-pressed to produce a similar picture, projecting the German nationalist swastika symbol onto the whole world. It does not exist. In WW2:
- Germany wanted to restore German as a powerful nation
- USSR wanted to conquer the world under the dictatorship of the proletariat
- USA wanted to conquer the world as well and still aspires this
The
USA and
USSR actively sought war with Germany, not the other way around.
They are the real villains.
I expect that the last remaining revelation about WW2 will be that Roosevelt and Stalin conspired, uhh sorry... worked towards this goal as early as 1933, via
