Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin was so sure that Germany will adopt Communism in 1918 and onward. Likewise the U.S. in 1945 and onward was afraid the hungry West Germany (and Europe) will adopt Communism and Socialism - thus the U.S. generous Marshall Plan for Europe after WW2

An interesting take on those turbulent years that affect us to this day. Reading a book on who funded Hitler that author made me ponder on what might have been had the Western Allies not been so vengeful. A strong Germany could have be a bastion against Communism before and after WW2. Forgiveness would have made us better nations and been repaid in spades.

Yes, if the American banks didn't recall the loans given after great depression (not a fault of theirs) things would have gone really different.

Forgiveness for what? Germany was not at fault during WW1. Everyone was wrong and no valid reason for the war could even be identified.

What are you talking about? The Western Allies were NOT vengeful, and Germany WAS part of a bastion against USSR…

I think they're talking about post-ww1, and the "vengefulness" especially associated with the peace settlement and the Treaty of versailles (the details of which are too often glossed over but that's another talk!)

Funny, after Mueller, speaking of "post truth" has an entirely different meaning.

Notwithstanding his academic standing: R Evans is often tendentious and (unlike C Browning, for example) heavily reliant on confirmation bias and hindsight.

Looks like somebody forgot who declared war on whom and who took over the other half of Poland two weeks later (and was NOT declared war on). Get 'The Bad War' by another named King.
