STALINGRAD FEBURARY 1943

 Do you not find it curious that the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad (2023) was hardly mentioned in the evening news last year? Nor was it mentioned this year. Now why is that? Stalingrad (not D-Day) was the turning point of World War II. Could it be that the powers that be do not want to mention it due to the fact they are using Ukraine in a proxy war to weaken Putin's Russia? It should be obvious to all the powers that be loved the Soviet Union with the same intensity with which they now hate Putin's Russia and Russian nationalism! After all, FDR passed the Lend Lease Act in order to send arms and food to the Soviet Union to help it defeat the Greater German Reich. Most Americans are not aware of how much stuff was shipped to the Soviet Union. It was only when Sean McMeekin wrote Stalin's War that the average America became aware of how much we actually shipped to the Soviet Union. It did indeed make their victory possible! Without Lend Lease the Soviet Union would have been defeated!  This book should by required reading by every SND Operative. 

Of course, Stalingrad is known as Volgograd now. The German objective was to capture Stalingrad thus severing Soviet transport links with southern Russia which would allow Germany to capture the oil fields in the Caucasus region. The German Sixth Army was surrounded and surrendered on February 2, 1943, and the Soviet Union took 91,000 prisoners of war the vast majority of whom died in a Soviet Gulag never saw home again. The tragic plight of the Sixth Army was captured by author Reinhold Busch in the book Stalingrad: Eyewitness Accounts of the Sixth Army. This should also be required reading for all SND Operatives! Despite what Americans may think it was Stalingrad, not D-Day and the Normandy invasion, that was the turning point of World War II! 

Today it seems insane for a person to fight the Soviet Union, the United States and the British Empire and expect to win! But if Adolf Hitler had died right after he annexed Austria and the Sudetenland he would have gone down as one of the greatest leaders in German history. But the invasion of the Soviet Union was his undoing. We are aware of the fact that many historical revisionists portray Operative Barbarossa as a preemptive strike in that Hitler attacked the Soviet Union because they were about to attack Germany.  We do not believe that to be the case because long before Hitler attained power, he was championing the need for living space at the expense of Russia. He wrote about that specific need in Mein Kampf. However, Hitler was not alone as regarding the need for living space as practically every German nationalist, long before he came to power, also championed the need for living space. With living space comes agricultural produce and the desire for living space was a direct response to the blockade of Germany in World War I whereby many Germans starved to death. However, we do believe that if Hitler had not attacked Russia Stalin would have attacked Germany later on in the war when he believed them to be at their weakest. Had Hitler financed a revolt from within the Soviet Union he may have been more successful. Grateful Russian Anti-Communist nationalists may have formed an alliance with him and even given him some land in gratitude for saving Mother Russia from the Communists. Of course, that is speculation on our part but by no means unfeasible.

The reason National Socialism is not a factor today is because Hitler killed it with his invasion of the Soviet Union! He gambled all and lost all! But at the time it appeared the Soviet Union was ripe for a fall. Stalin had killed most of his generals in a flight of paranoia and got embarrassed when the Soviet Union invaded Finland which fought the Soviets tooth and nail almost to a standstill!  These two factors induced Hitler to invade when he did. But the Soviet Union was also ripe for being overthrown from within if Hitler has sent them money and weapons. Think of how different the world would be today if Hitler has chosen internal subversion of the Soviet Union instead of outright invasion!
