How was ww2 going for the allies in late 1940

History

Kitty [74]3 years ago

For the Allies - Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand - it was going VERY badly. The British Army had been driven out of Europe, with the loss of all its equipment, France had been forced to surrender, British cities were suffering nightly bombing, the approaches to seaports were being blocked by ships sunk by the new, and then unsweepable, magnetic mines, U-boats were wreaking havoc on the vital Atlantic convoys. The only "bright spot" was in North Africa, where Wavell had totally defeated the Italians, but that was to be short-lived, many of his troops being diverted to Greece and lost there, and the Mediterranean Fleet having heavy losses off Crete.

The U.S. was "well out of it", and, very sensibly, was likely to remain so !

Why would people be enslaved? and why would someone enslave another?​
Stels [109]

Answer: Many reasons. Most of them terrible.

But possibly for the identical reason that a decent parent who is totally against penalty would be willing to do and use it if their child keeps mindlessly walking into oncoming traffic (regardless of what number times they tried other methods to prevent them from doing it).

Sometimes you'll be able to keep your principals and morals… and stick out the dead kid. otherwise you can do whatever is important to prevent them from killing themselves and others… whether or not it means becoming a tyrant and a dictator in their eyes and therefore the eyes of others. whether or not it means going against your own core beliefs.
