Dangerous, utter nonsense, this guy is at best naive and stupidly shallow in his understanding of WW II and at worse he's a morally bankrupt apologist for Nazism.

Utter waste of time and effort. With this bloke I fear we're really scraping the scum off the bottom of the barrel in an effort to generate click-bait.

I'm sure there is plenty of new research plus new perspectives left to mine in WW II but this bloke doesn't do it – just cheap, nasty controversy to catch eyeballs on the web.

Stalin was as bad as Hitler I would agree with. Both had a body count of innocent people. As far as body counts go Stalin was way ahead unto 1943 when Hitler opened up the death camps.

FDR expected that the US would get into the war but where and when were unknown. The Indonesian oil fields to the south being a major objective after the US blocked oil from the US. Having given a warning (somewhat vague) to Hawaii I suspect FDR did not expect the disaster to happen at Pearl Harbor.

Everyone forgets that the US was at peace and there is a tendency to be unprepared for a surprise strike when in peace mode. Even Russia with many warnings was surprised when Germany attacked.

If you want to sell your story then makeup some fanatical conspiracy theory and it will sell.
