So far we have read about a conspiracy story, argued over when WW2

Hi,
Again, I am not sure where you get your facts- what has the 6th June 1944
as a date have to do with it? And why not earlier?
If you are talking about the war reparations demanded by the victorious
allies in WW1 (by any account largely caused by Wilhelm) they were never
paid, and the engineere

If we are to be historically accurate, WWII was a continuation of WWI as

If you count Japan's actions in China and Manchuria then the war started in
the early 'thirties. As for Germany, Hitler declared war on the USA on the

It seems obvious that when the war started depends on one's
situation. One could argue, for example, that it started in 1937 with
the Rape of Nanking.
