I guess that's your argument won. I'll retreat and burn my history books. Thank god they had nowt left in the tank to destroy 22 million determined Ruskies.

Well yes and no
fact is if it was not for the Russians the war could well have dragged on a lot longer or some sort of peace agreement
the eastern front battles campaign was massive the Germans lost a massive amount of tanks and air craft there all of which may well have been in France
German tech towards the end of the war was pretty impressive as well
ballistic missile tech
Jet fighters

Possibly. But it is a good question. A pause, no matter how significant, gives those enemies time to amass fortifications, weapons, intelligence etc. Something that most of Europe was missing when the Gerries steamrolled/blitzkrieged every single army before them, including the British and shoved them into The Channel. You can not emphasise enough how formidable those soldiers (The Wehrmacht) were.

Thsts not my point. I believe the Russians would have still have beaten the German's. But do you think the Ruskies would have stopped at the German border? or do you think they would have taken the rest of Europe as they did with Poland Czechoslovakia amongst other countrys.
Remember the Americans are fighting their own war in thd Pacific.
The German blitzgreig tactics against France and Poland etc
frightened the ***t out of Stalin and the Russians
he gave Britain no chance of standing up to hitler hence the Russian German pact or treaty
Which hitler had no intention of honouring

Adolph should have read his history
ref the French invasion of Russia that got halted by the Russians and the Russian winter
the German army was never equipped for a long drawn out campaign and winter war fare

err...they didn't. They settled on a diplomatic agreement regards East Germany and the Soviet control of outlying Eastern European countries.
Russia entered the war in the Pacific.

Hence why ta Battle of Brtain was a the most important and key point of the war.
We could never have beaten the German's or the Russians alone.
The Germans were on the verg of nuclear weapons and a Rocket that could hit New York. The Russians had a massive army.
Neither the Russians or the German's would have been our friends.

Agreement with Who?
In February 1945, when they were confident of an Allied victory, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Stalin met near Yalta, Crimea, to discuss the reorganization of post-WWII Europe.
Sort of agreed
it could also be argued that due to the British and Americans a massive German army was tied up in France
Which could have been used against the Russians
so perhaps the Russians should be grateful for that ?
Let the Cold War begin....
that’s when Churchill realised he was a junior partner in the trio
and did not have much influence
