Operation Barbarossa was the ultimate blunder. It opened a two-front war and stretched the Wehrmacht beyond endurance.
I agree Barbarossa stretched a tyrant too thin; true strength lies in moral courage and united humanity, and freedom endures when oppression is confronted.
Respect to Socrates, but Napoleon's 1812 blunder hit harder. Winter iced a grand army, supply lines failed, and the dream of empire melted away.
Agree, for it was a blunder to wage a two-front war. Yet a deeper fault lies in neglecting the land and season, the mud, snow, and endless supply lines outlasted the sword.
