I've heard all kinds of theories on why Germany was unable to achieve victory in WWII. But I've never heard the theory that brings up the subject of oil.
Well, after thinking about how modern life is completely dependent upon the black gold, I did a Google search and found a remarkable little essay on the subject of oil and World War Jew (II).
As it turns out, nearly every major German activity in the war revolved around the absolute necessity of obtaining oil. Well, at least according to Michael Antonucci.
Blood for Oil: The Quest for Fuel in World War II
Some key excerpts:
The legendary German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel once wrote: "The battle is fought and decided by the quartermasters before the shooting begins.".
The importance of oil had become apparent during the First World War. As armies became more mechanized, the need for secure sources of fuel and lubricants became the sine qua non for military operations.
"To fight, we must have oil for our machine." - Adolf Hitler
In fact, it is difficult to really overstate the gap that existed between German army fuel needs and the available supplies. The images of panzers rolling across Poland, the Low Countries and France are etched in our minds as characteristics of the new style of warfare Nazi Germany had created. It is easy to forget those panzers made up only a small part of the entire force, and that the German army was far from fully mechanized.
The German army and air force had learned enough from the Polish campaign to build up significant reserves for the war in the West. When that blitz was over, the Wehrmacht had captured more than 20 million barrels of oil from the French, Belgians and Dutch. Since the invaders had used only 12 million barrels through the campaign, the conquests represented a net gain of 8 million barrels. (For reference, though, and to show how precarious the Germans' situation remained, the United States in 1940 produced an average of 4 million barrels per day.)
Rommel worked wonders with the little fuel that got past the British naval/air outpost on Malta, as well as captured enemy stores, but no commander suffered more from fuel uncertainties than he did. As early as June 1941, Rommel wrote: "We knew that our moves would be decided more by the petrol gauge than by tactical requirements."
In a postwar interrogation, Hans Kolbe, a U.S. spy in the German Foreign Ministry in Berlin, offered this assessment: "The German need to obtain Soviet oil was deemed the primary reason for the attack. Since the Soviet deliveries were insufficient to satisfy German needs for bringing the war [in the west] to a conclusion, the only recourse appeared to be the seizure and exploitation by the Germans of the oil resources of the Soviet Union."
Capturing the Caucasus oil fields would require draining dry the accumulated German oil reserves. German planners for the operation concluded that even under the most optimistic projections there was only enough fuel for 60 days of full-on campaigning deeper into the Soviet Union. As with the earlier campaigns against Poland and the West, the 1942 operation had to be a Blitzkreig victory, or else the move would suffer slow oil starvation and eventual defeat. Hitler took the gamble.
This is what led to the dual Third Reich tragedies of Kursk and Stalingrad. For the Russian (Jew) leadership knew where their oil was coming from. And so the fight at Stalingrad was no surrender and to the death, as ordered.
Despite the fact Germany produced record amounts of armaments during 1944, there was not enough fuel or lubricants to put into all those brand new machines. Speer concluded: "The loss of fuel had... a more decisive effect on the course of the war than the difficulties in armaments and communications."
The primacy of oil was never better demonstrated than during the final battle for Berlin. During that bitter fight, literally thousands of German tanks, planes and guns sat idle in nearby warehouses for lack of fuel and lubricants needs to operate them.
"God was on the side of the nation that had the oil." - Prof. Wakimura, Tokyo Imperial University
As the essay shows, the same "primacy of oil" guided most if not all of Imperial Japan's wartime maneuvers/decisions/actions.
After their second wave of attack planes returned to the Japanese carriers, some of the pilots tried to convince their on-site commander, Adm. Nagano, to send a third strike against the base's repair and oil facilities. But the admiral, who had at times doubted the feasibility of the entire operation, was unwilling to risk another attack. He gathered his winnings and went home; it was a grave error.
Every drop of oil on Oahu had been transported there from California. Adm. Chester Nimitz, later commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, recalled: "All of the oil for the fleet was in surface tanks at the time of Pearl Harbor. We had about 4.5 million barrels of oil out there and all of it was vulnerable to .50 caliber bullets. Had the Japanese destroyed that oil, it would have prolonged the war another two years."
"The war was decided by engines and octane." - Joseph Stalin
"Above all, petrol governed every movement." - Winston Churchill
With 50 years and a million pages of analysis between us and the events of World War II, it is easy to forget the lessons learned at that time. Today, with armed forces that are truly and fully mechanized, the nations of the world are more dependent than ever on secure lines of oil supplies to keep their armed forces operating. We would do well to remember that the best tanks and warships money and technology can create are nothing but inviting targets if they can't move, and oil is still the only substance that can move them...
Stuff like this is like learning all about the jews imho.
Because so much goes from mystery to understood.
Had the Reich had unlimited fuel like the All Lies did, thanks to the Kwa, we'd be living in a far different world.
Anyway, thought you WWII buffs might like reading this. I did. Not that many of you will get to read it, considering the condition of VNNf these days.
