With that 89% approval, Hitler started to dictate terms to the military, because Hitler was the only one who could control the angry mob.

Basically, Hitler's economic plan, which was full employment by just wiping out the unions and associated left, gives him the green light to get to France in 1940.

His plan to defeat the French coming to fruition in six weeks, gives him carte blanche, nobody could stand up to him then.

He had just one problemo. Logistics. Too many horses, not enough trucks.

If the Nazis had had General Motors supplying them, they would have won.

Everything Hitler wanted to do, his Blitzkrieg Superman Army of the Future; Germany couldn't do it, not enough scale.

The Americans did it tho. Creighton Abrams perfected the Wehrmacht.

Air Land Battle ist Blitzkrieg.

A-10, Apache, M1A2, Bradley, Arty, and an endless train of trucks behind them.

Vietnam and Iraq are largely irrelevant, because America remains the logistics hyperpower.

Nobody is in a position to challenge America head to head, because they are all Boutique Armies.

The Russians are the closest, because they have the next best logistics tail.

China is a military Potemkin Village, can't get anywhere fast

When the Russians put a hundred thousand troops in the field at short notice and then move them around quickly, that is a kind of strategic warning.

They are demonstrating that, for all their flaws, logistically, they are still in the big leagues.

That's mostly a message to China tho, because the Chinese are their biggest threat.

If Russia fights an all out land war, it will be in the East.

See dude, this is what I meant, when I told GCF that claims of Russia and China being closer than China and America, are incorrect. China is the biggest threat to Russia and America is propping up the Chinese Potemkin village, just drawing the natural conclusion that America and China are better friends than Russia and China are, even though none of the big three are particularly close, obviously.

America is the Mahanian Eternal Seapower containing them, but China is the only ones who could invade, to take the territory back which Russia stole from them

Indeed. I am simply pointing out that an Anti-America Eurasian Alliance between China and Russia, is nowhere near as close as zerohedge thinks it is. In fact an Anti-Russian Chimerica Alliance is actually closer, even though that isn't going to happen either. America will continue to try and contain them both, while seeking to keep them from allying against them, which they don't have to try all that hard to do, because Russia and China don't really get along all that well as it is.

The Domino Theory lives. Zerohedge ain't as woke as they think they are.
