>Germany never should have declared war on America after Pearl Harbor. They should have said, "hey, that was all the Japs. We're sorry, but we had nothing to do with it."
Germany didnt declare war on USA because of Pearl Harbour you moron.
Germany was not obligated to do anything.
Japan did not declare war on the Soviets when Germany attacked, so why should Germany be compelled to declare war on USA if Japan attacks?
The war declaration happened because USA was already involved in the war (Lend-Lease, US escorting British convoys, Bases-for-destroyers deal, US occupation of Iceland, FDRs "shoot-on-sight" order etc).
>OR should have bided their time with Russia until the war was over on the Western Front.
They attacked Russia because the war with Britain was going nowhere.
In fact, they were losing. Germany did not have the resources for a sea and air and overseas warfare, and the British blockade was starving Germany.
Britain literally refused to sue for peace specifically because they were waiting for USSR/USA to get involved. Ending the war meant ending Russia as a factor, or otherwise gain her resources to fight the Commonwealth empire.
Also, Russia was outgrowing Germany. Hitler had a window of opportunity to strike.
>Germany could beat Russia OR America, but certainly not both attacking from each side.
More like Germany couldnt beat either. Germany cant beat USA and USA was always going to supply her enemies.
>Germany only had 10% of their troops in Western Europe at the time of D Day. And it was old men and shell-shocked/wounded, soldiers from the Western front.
You literally made this up. Moron.
>At 100% German troop capacity, D Day would have been a meat grinder for the allies. We had to really struggle against 10% of the German troops on D Day.
Without the eastern front, the allies wouldnt even attempt Overlord as we know it. Why would they? There is no reason to do it.
They would just bomb and starve Germany until someone says enough.
