To: Leaning Right

Which has led to the myth that the Germans would have won the Battle of Britain if they had just continued their original plan. Actually not true, as the evidence shows the Germans still would have lost, the RAF still not shattered, but its a myth still to this day widely believed.

I guess in my mind it came down to who was going to run out of airplanes first. If the Luftwaffe had continued to pound RAF airfields, then maybe the Brits, but the Germans switched to cities, thus losing more planes in the process and protecting the British aircraft on the ground.

Perhaps a zillion ways to review, but in the end, we know who and what won the Battle of Britain and the war. Good, not Evil. May it ever be so, as we face the latest evil run-a-muck in the world, the religion of peace.
