- Hitler tried it. How far did he get? Hitler never got to Moscow let alone further inland. Russia offers the following problems.
- It has a vast area to conquer.
- It has a good working industrial base. During WWII, Russia had that Industrial Base up and running. The problem from their point of view was that America's was better. I don't think that that's true now.
- Russia has an adequate army, air force and navy. Hitler relied on Blitzkrieg (which he thought he could conquer Russia quickly. It didn't turn out that way). which simply would not work on the Russian terrain. Many of Hitler's soldiers froze to death because he could not supply them with winter clothing. It would be that much harder now.
