Hitler's crucial mistakes during ww2

1. His first mistake was during the battl of britain. Germany was doing a good job with britain. Believe it or not but I believe that If hitler kept on bombing the British airfields, runways , and factories, He would successfully destory Britain's accessibility of using aircraft as well as building more aircraft and weapons to fight Germany.If he kept on bombing those places he would definately have an easier time to attack London later on during the war. But as soon as the British mistakingly bombed Berlin Hitler became furious and demanded the bombings of London. With all the fighting concentrated in England, The british havemore time to stock up to defend.
2. Hitler attacked the U.S.S.R. to quickly . This forced him to fight on two fronts. Also, considering that Napolean didn't even conquer Russia due to the disastrous winter. Thats exactly what happened to the Germans.They even had to turn to Canibalism to survive. These are 2 crucial mistakes I believe Hitler made.

Goerring was his biggest mistake. He was a great pilot but a terrible Air Marshall.

Hitler didn't put a foot wrong in the beginning. If Britain had surrendered as it should have then everything would have gone smoothly. Unfortunately, the same deranged lunatic (Churchill) who attacked Hitler in the first place was also too stupid to quit.

It cost Britain its Empire and nearly starved Europe to death but Hitler was stopped from invading and defeating those poor innocent Stalinists.

Attacking Russia was Hitlers his biggest mistake. If the Russo-Nazi pact had held then we'd all be speaking German, Russian or possibly Japanese and the allies would be decried in the history books as bloodthirsty monsters who wanted to take over the World.

man u don't know what you're talking about do you. Its thanks to that lunatic Churchill the deranged nazis lost. Most of the world's people would be eliminated including the poles and jews. Hitler was a crazed idiot smart but too angry and too into his fanatical views which are very outrageous and in plain words stupid. Thank goodness for the allies wooping the dam nazis . The russian pact would had been broken anyway.Its thanks to Churchill that Hitler didn't create any more damage .

It's thanks to Churchill that many casualties had been prevented. Plus speaking German around the whole world would be weird. and to this comment \

"allies would be decried in the history books as bloodthirsty monsters who wanted to take over the World."

Its actually Hitler and Germany's intentions to take over the world. Man you ought to go learn some unbiased history.

If only.

World War II bombing was so hopelessly inacurate that they'd be lucky to drop within half a mile of a target.
Both sides resorted to attacking densely populated cities to increase their chance to hit something.

we have discussed this before in this thread:
http://sciforums.com/showthread.php?t=52627&page=1

heres what i had to say about it:
regarding all of this
hitler made 4 big mistakes

first is that he found himself in a 2 front war, namely with russia in the east and britain in the west

second, he underestimated the power of the naval arm of his military machine and therefor never developed it

third is he didn't realize the advantages of radar, one of the reasons that britain was able to hold him off

and fourth he underestimated americas ability to produce, the second reason britain didn't fall and ultimatly led to the nazis defeat

 

leopald the subject is similar but completely different. I'm just discussing 2 crucial mistakes he made and others such as radars. I also forgot to mention that the POLES Yes THe POLISH saved the english's ass. If it wasn't for the Polish pilots fighting for RAF Britain would now demolished to the ground.

Did you guys also know that after the world war Germany stated that If they were to use German tactics and Polish soldiers they would have surely won the war!!
POLISH PRIDE!!!!!!!!!

 

I also disagree and agree with perplexity. Yes, it is true that the ww2 bombs were very inaccurate, but if Hitler concentrated on Airfields , factories and runways he would surely be able to limit the British amount of aircraft which would allow him to carry on with operation Sea Lion.

 

But the Polish airmen were just too much for Hitler. They got 1337 skills.

 

Become involved in a war on the opposite side of America, Russia, Great Britain and France was a fair mistake

 

Bravo for the Polski pilots!

Whatever mistakes Hitler made, surely they were the correct ones! Eh???

Its very good he made those mistakes because if he didn't I wouldn't exist

 

Who is this directed towards? Did I offend you, or are you talking about something else?

 

1. Hitler was too obsessed with Stalingrad.

 

i disagree
the british airfeilds were bombed and hit
but the spitefires and hurricanes kept flying
there were two reasons for this
first of course is radar which warned britain before the germans cleared the normandy coast
second is the british didn't make the mistake of grouping its planes at an airfeild
they were able to take off and land on a grass airstrip

one of the major reasons for hitler to switch to night raids was to avoid the RAF

 

Hitler's crucial mistake was that he became too greedy and impatient. Just like Napoleon.

 

it wasn't i who wrote it. Must have been my brother.Ill ask him when he comes back.

 

Lets start with this. Hitler had an airforce way larger and powerful than the RAF. Hitler could have completely destroyed them and would have had his way with operation sea lion.

 

This is correct. The air bases were hardly more than grass fields plus a few sheds; by the time a bomber got that far the fighters would all be in the air to meet them, and if a field was bombed it was easy enough to land nearby or at an airfield elsewhere until the craters were filled in, which was not such a big deal, just a matter of shovelling soil and shifting turf.

It was not like nowadays, with just few to pick from. There were dozens of landing strips all over the country, and many still exist more or less as they were, in East Anglia.

Even if Hitler had succeeded in invading Russia, for how long would he have been able to maintain control?

Another of Hitler's mistakes was getting Charlie Chaplin to film his biography. Nobody would take him seriously after that...

 

I think his biggest mistake was being a frigging murderous lunatic bent on world domination. That one kind of sticks out.
