Hitler should have wiped out the English at Dunkirk but he was too compassionate toward his fellow Europeans.

"His fellow Europeans", what a wanker.

Hitler didn't want to hammer the English at that time because he thought that Britain and America would change sides and ally themselves with Germany against the rest of Europe. He had this fantasy of unifying all of the Germanic peoples of Europe into Greater Germany, except for two groups: Britain, which would remain independent, and north Italian Germans, who would remain in Italy as a reward for Mussolini.

To the day he died, he never understood how the Americans and British didn't take his side. Talk about a delusional fool.
