The French troops are noted for being the last to defend the Fuehrer and his bride in the Berlin bunker...
Defend or attack?
FDR was a ####.
Plus didn’t hitler throw TWO HUNDRED divisions at Russia while we fought 80?
We were fighting a TWO FRONT war, so it was still incredible.
But those 200 divisions against the west would have cost so many more American lives.
Only thing USSR was ever good for.
And I believe you’re right. The NWO was formed from the disarray of that war.
Defend. The French were loyal Nazis to the end. And Vichy was only unpopular among the Communists, left wing socialists, and a few hyper nationalists. (The myths of the resistance were largely a post-war construct of the French.) Remember the American casualties at the hands of the French in North Africa. And the French fought the British in the Middle East and in West Africa. (Unsucessfully in the Middle East, where the Brits took Damascus, with greater success in Dakar where the British were handily defeated. There were also significant battles in Madagascar with roughly equal casualties, but the British ultimately prevailing after a roughly 6 month campaign.) In 1942, there was probably a 2-1 or 3 to 1 advantage of Vichy to Free French. Of course, when the Allies started winning, the French switched sides again.
And the NWO was not a post - WWII concept. The concept of a New Order (or New European Order) was a Nazi concept.
