And all from taking only 1 and a half history courses at school, hahaha.

And I do not think the Nazi's were defeated by the Russian winter alone... There was much much more.

I agree with you there Ie. the sniper wars and the battle of stalingrade.. Those were major factors of the defeat of the Nazi war machine. But in counter, the winter of Russia is a Major factor in their defeat if they had the weather they did when they attacked they would have easily overcome the russian forces.

Nazi's just made a bunch of poor decisions... if they made good ones, they could have won the war easily. And maybe if they picked up a history book, they could have beat Russia too.

The Russian tanks were also superior to the Nazi Panzer tanks. As well, defeat was not an option for Russia, and Stalin knew that, and if he had to kill his own soldiers to defeat the Germans, then he was prepared to do so. And finally, Soviet tanks and soldiers greatly outnumbered the Germans, which was another major factor. In fact, Hitler once said "If I had known that they had 10 tanks for each of our tanks, I would have reconsidered invading the USSR." Well, that's not a direct quote, but he said something like that. The point is, the USSR defeated two thirds of the Nazi Army, and they were a major factor in the defeat of the Third Reich.
