Why don't you tell us what the relevance of "created" versus "forced" was vis a vis WWII. |
The relevance is, the Germans were forced to surrender when in fact really, Germany was not beaten was it? So as a result several years later Hitler comes along and wham! More fighting.
At the end of World War 2 like melnibonian said, the defeated nations were given the chance for a better future. |
We've jumped threads here.
For the record, let me remind you that the topic was nukes and whether they can bring about peace. The A-bombs dropped on Japan resulted in the surrender of Japan in WWII. The surrender of Germany resulted in the Treaty of Versailles in WWI. Cart before horse. The sequences are completely relevant and therefore these particular events are incomparable.
