Changes

:Continuing the "coulda woulda shoulda" school, Sea Lion was all bluff, and diversionary.  Hitler overruled the Generals who recommended finishing off the British forces at Dunkirk, cause otherwise it might turn around bite you in the butt, which it eventually did.  But Hitler was fighting a propaganda campaign; he knew Britain did not want War, the people did not, Chamberlain didn't, nor the Duke of Windsor.  To Hitler at this point, the skirmish was a "frisch, froelich krieg" with Britain, and the two would eventually see eye-to-eye on Soviet Bolshevism.  He already had the continental French manpower which made up the SS Charlemagne Division, among others, working for him.  Hitler did not anticipate the stubbornness of a Churchill, who would risk [[total war]] to the finish.  Until the day Hitler went down in the basement and blew his brains out, he never understood why Britain opposed him.  [[User:RobS|RobS]] 17:39, 6 June 2007 (EDT)
