I am quite sure all of the damned system would have collapsed. After all, it was ready for destruction, no matter how terrible the terror became in the last phase. The ideology was already dying, now it was just the defence of Germany from the enemies. After all, soldiers always fight harder when their own countries’ and the lives of their loved ones are at stake (old hat, just don’t tell people like Ralph Peters or V.D. Hanson, who could or would not understand it - they have never been in a similar situation. Nor have they, probably, fired, or had to fire, one single live shot in their lives).
And, by that time, there would have been no way around a surrender. Of course, as much as Goerdeler et al. would have tried to avoid it, there would have been “no dice”, I am sure.
But at least the final bloodbaths could have been avoided. A world with the brave people of the Warsaw Rising, with Anne Frank and her family still alive, with Viktor Ullmann and Joey Kennedy still there, and millions more and more...
And the punishment of the Nazi criminals (by ourselves) would have been much harsher, since there would have been more German survivors. Many of the criminals only escaped because there were simply not enough qualified people around anymore to fill many vacant jobs in administration and elsewhere, so you couldn’t hire anyone who had not compromised himself.
Patton caught hell for saying this.
