In English: Because of the loss of WWI, they had to pay too much and it was getting worse and worse. That's why the Nazi Party had a chance of success.

Sorry, that was just driving me nuts!

I though your question was "how could the Nazi party never have gotten started?"

Not "How did the Nazi party get elected?"

because he was a coward and shot himself to avoid capture by the allies

Wisse · Post by **Wisse** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 7:13 am

if you can say why he didn't want to get capture by the allies
then its your turn

Ummm because they would have humialliated him and sentenced him to death anyway?

Well, it would've been the Soviets who got Hitler (they were in Berlin at the time, even ole Adolf saw the writing on the wall),and if you think they would've put him on trial... . IMO, it was more that the Nazi state had failed, which Hitler believed to be the last chance for the Aryan race to save itself, so death was far better than living in a non-Aryan world. (Not that he had long life expectancy when the Soviets got him, anyways)

Yay . . .

Anyway, time for a question . . .

Umm

Here we go . . .

The Nazis had a plan ready that involved capturing England . . .
It was called Operation ________ ?

Stopper · Post by **Stopper** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 7:57 am

Sealion.

Probably the most famous (though probably not the most prolific) Red Army sniper in the Second World War - he had 114 verified kills, mostly officers, in the battle for Stalingrad.

What was his name?

boberz · Post by **boberz** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 9:22 am

oo thats the first question i havent known

CaptainPlanet · Post by **CaptainPlanet** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 9:25 am

Is it Fyodor Okhlopkov?

He was a Red Army sniper, but I don't think he fought at Stalingrad (although I can't easily prove that.)

The one I'm thinking of was actually feted by the Soviets for propaganda during Stalingrad. According to Wikipedia, Okhlopkov appears not to have gained proper recognition until after the war, possibly because of his ethnicity.

He's more famous than people might realise, but more clues might completely give it away.

EDIT: Oh, and thanks for quoting me in your sig.

Vassili Zaitsev is my guess. Just as north africa to brazil... Enemy at the gates

Stopper · Post by **Stopper** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 9:57 am

Yes. And Enemy At The Gates was a clue I was going to put, but it was already too easy to google, so I didn't...
