Maybe this will help....

Well yes, yes it does. : )

Too bad Cruise still strikes me as a mediocre actor for this important role.

I haven’t seen the movie yet, although I probably will. I’m not a big Cruise fan, but every now and then, he does something right...I liked him in Last Samurai. He does look a lot like von Stauffenberg, but quite honestly, I think a slightly younger Mark Harmon would have also been a good match and he’s also a consistently better actor.

In July 1944 the US/UK forces were still in Normandy and the Soviets were just capturing Minsk. I have to think we would have only kept fighting to keep the Soviets as far from western Europe as possible.

The idea was to surrender to the western powers and let them march through Germany and stop the Russians from actually taking over half of Europe. You know, France and the UK declared war over the invasion of Poland, the same Poland that Russia also invaded - and for the most part kept afterwards, BTW.
