What was Hitlers biggest mistake?
That as an Austrian he hated the Prussians and by extension many of the people of western and central Europe.
What was Hitlers one biggest mistake?
Answered in the previous. As for the war itself, Germany didn't have a chance of winning and should've suffered Geo-political isolation as they worked to rebuild their country and reach out to ethnic Germans globally to build an international political power base. They lacked both the man power and the industrial capacity to win a kinetic war. While their accomplishments both strategic and industrial are amazing, given what they had to work with, it's still overshadowed by the fact that the Axis powers were up against nations with vastly larger populations, more substantial industrial, and agricultural capacities.
However, they could've easily held out for decades advancing their country, Italy, and Japan, while waiting patiently for the Anglo-Franco western hegemony to collapse.

Anglo-Franco western hegemony
The 1600s called and they want their geo political paradigm back.
Hitler accurately assesed the preeminent world power to be the jews.

Indeed, because his biological father's a Rothschild.

Letting the British and French forces escape at Dunkirk and not withdrawing from Leningrad before the northern army got encircled were two of the major mistakes.
Some others are saying they would have just gotten nuked if they stayed in the fight longer. However, there were only two nukes available at the time and we really couldn't make any more plutonium on a realistic time scale. Little boy used uranium, but there were other manufacturing difficulties with that. Also, German airspace was still pretty well defended, so I think the likelihood of success from nuking Germany was lower than Japan. If we didn't nuke Japan, they would have kept fighting further weakening the allied strength.
If rockets like the v2 had been improved, which was possible in a reasonably short period, that could have increased the german chances as well.
Hitler would have to fight the perfect war in order to win and that's impossible without a time machine. He took on the greatest empire humanity has ever seen (British) and basically turned it into a shell of its former self. On top of that he took on the USSR which was willing to throw unlimited bodies into the meat grinder just to stop his advance on Moscow.

Anyone else read that shit about the Uranium bomb's fuel actually coming from Germany because they were very close to nukes as well....w/ the adventures of Prescott Bush and something about smuggling that Uranium because we didn't have enough, and he owned all the ships or some shit. If that was True, had Germany withdrawn from Russia in time things would be very different today.

That doesn't make sense because enriching uranium is the most difficult part, and manpower and resources were germanys weakest points.
There may have been some uranium stolen, but likely far too little in german possesion to build a bomb. Let alone several to test and then drop.
I think german phisysists understood the concept, and german engineers were capable of designing one. But I don't think they had enough time or resources to see it through during an active war.

So the answer is 'no', you didn't read that stuff.

>On top of that he took on the USSR which was willing to throw unlimited bodies into the meat grinder just to stop his advance on Moscow.
He should have thrown everything in the east at Moscow and Moscow alone. Cutting the head off that snake in addition to severing all those rail links would have spelled doom for the Soviets. Particularly if they could have somehow killed Stalin.

LOL. Been tried before and failed. Russian strategy is to retreat east until winter. Germany could not hold Moscow while Russia had the other 99% of the country. Moscow is not a magic plot of land that bestows controlling power.

Deutsche engineering is amazing but overly complicated. Not sure if this is Hitlers fault but it didn't help them win the war.

Depends what the end goal was. If it was taking over all of Europe, there really was no plausible scenario where that would have worked. Maybe over decades of slowly germanizing neighboring countries and dominating economically. Maybe.
If the goal was just to become a world power and hold onto it for generations, they should have just stopped early and used diplomacy to solidify gains.

Just rounding up the Jews for relocation and not actually exterminating them.

You can make a number of different arguments, but in my opinion, it was ultimately that he didn’t fully understand the amount of force that was going to come down on him to stop him. He did it all too fast. I think he should’ve fixed the country and then started his conquest once the dust had settled more. He should’ve known the whole first world was corrupted and would fight back, but his large scale invasions whipped them up into desperation, forcing them to use their whole power to stop him

Biggest? Hard to say;
- invading Russia
- allowing jews into his government of the highest levels
- 'honorary Aryan'

His invasion of USSR was not a mistake. They were going to attack him in like six months, so by attacking first he was able to mitigate how much damage they did. The problem was he kept going and tried to take Moscow with troops that were too weakened by weather and lack of supplies.

The single thing that lost Hitler (((WW2))) and cost Whites everything was not a mistake.
You're stupid.

You're the idiot. The last battle is not what lost the war.

it is easy for us to sit here and pick apart the war. honestly, given the time period and how ignorant EVERYONE was, i think he did the best he could. he was up against alot of opposition from all sides, and especially from within. I wonder how many of those mistakes were actually his to bear, when he went out of his way to appease everyone in and out of his ranks. was he perfect? of course not, but all things considered, he should of focused on one thing at a time. killing stalin should have been number one priority. also, sending the jews to their new home turned out to be a huge mistake as well. i also think that he should have placed more attention to the mind of america. had most people in the states been aware of what was really going on, things might have been very different. america was more brainwashed then than they are now. just a thought
