I agree with you totally but the fact the the German OKW didn't have freedom of action and were subjected to the Fuhrer's 'intuition' and stand fast orders didn't help their cause either. I am convinced that if the German generall staff could've fought the war the way they envisioned that they would have given the Allies a much harder time than they actually did. (the Fuhrer's stand fast orders were justified in the first Russian winter after the battle for Moscow; he probably thought that he could achieve victory in every situation through sheer willpower)
