How did everyday, European, gentile Ukranians, Russians, Czechs and others deserve such brutality?

If Hitler and Co had taken the proper tact, and went about the invasion of Russia as liberators, everyday Russians and Ukranians would have revolted and Germany would have won by Christmas.

That is not say Churchill and Co were any better. They were not. Just finished a book called German Voices that compiles interviews and letters from Germans who lived during the era. An officer the author describes as a true believer talked about how entrenched plutocracy kept Britain from making peace with Germany, and he is right. Does not make Hitler's many military blunders or moral outrages any less of a disaster.

Indeed. Hitler offered to sign an armistice with Britain on three separate occasions, each time after he had won a resounding victory. The first offer was after the fall of Poland. The second offer was after the fall of France and the Low countrys. The third offer was after the fall of Yugoslavia and Greece. Each time, the British rejected his peace offers.
