Machiavelli rules.
Suppose that happened.
Also, further suppose that
internal pressures
from decent Germans
put an end to Jewish deaths
(just as our Feds stopped
explicit attacks
on Native Americans
once our west-ward push
was over and done).
That kind of scenario
is a stable world,
industrialized,
with no "cold war" horrors, and
no Vietnams, and
global businessmen
who more or less share common
business practices.
I am NOT saying
Nazis were good guys! But IF
they could have been stripped
of their inhuman
elements internally,
would they still be bad?
"Perhaps FDR should have allowed the Germans to triumph"
You have it dead wrong.
FDR ruined the world with his leftist ideology. He let the NY Times cover up World War 1.5 when Stalin killed 10 million and Duranty got a Pulitzer.And then he formally recognized Russia and started formal trade - lo and behold, his son Eliot recv'd a $500,000 commission for the sale of 50 fokkers by the nazis to the communists.
Had we stopped the communists in the 30's, there would have been no WWII.

"One of Roosevelt's early acts in foreign affairs was to recognize Soviet Russia. Three months later February 28, 1934 Elliott went into a deal with Anthony Fokker to sell the Soviet government 50 military planes for a price which would leave a commission of half a million dollars for Elliott and the same for Fokker, who told a Senate committee the price was excessive but that Elliott had enough influence with the ExportImport Bank and the Russian Purchasing Commission in this country to swing the deal at this price. Elliott was only 23 at the time.10 "
