a little known fact is that France had the largest stock of gold in it's banks while the rest of europe and the usa suffered the full brunt of the great depression, France was collecting the most gold reserves of any country, so to finance his war hitler invades France. Plus if you read mein kemph hitler explicitly stated that the jews are to blame for ww1 and must be annihalated. Also the fact that churchill wanted to invade italy was correct because if the allies
took italy out germany would have been easily confronted, if American general mark clark did not for the sake of his ego continue on to rome instead of carefully taking out the germans in the siegfried line and clean out the germans, the partisan massacre and churchill's plan would have worked but gen. mark clark wanted headlines and he went on to rome to apppear on the front page, unfortunately for him, d-day occured on the same day and took the front page.
