Yes, the Poles fought valiantly in Normandy, and their red and white flag flies alongside those of America’s allies in front of every city hall from Cherbourg to Mt St Michel on D-Day. Normans still remember.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt . . . I suspect Surber is aware of this old adage, he should put it to use from time to time.

Think Surber’s simply associating the term “blitzkrieg” as most do with Germany running roughshod over Poland. He’s not calling it that and makes a general assumption his readers acknowledge this IMO vs. Stalin quietly getting the Fins to capitulate.

I like Surber as a person. He seems like a nice guy. However, I’ve never taken him seriously as a political analyst. He’s not what you’d call a deep thinker. The fact that he thinks Ron DeSantis can become President shows that. If the Deep State could defeat Trump, they’ll swat DeSantis like he was a fly. Assuming, of course, that Ron isn’t controlled opposition.

Without Ultra, it's conceivable that Germany wins. Lots of debate on that, but it is conceivable.
