MAITREYA PREDICTIONS
Student: “Why did Adolf Hitler, Master, not win the war?”
Master: “ After the defeat at Stalingrad, Hitler recaptured Charkov and he wanted to repeat his success at Kursk, by encircling two Soviet-armies. The road to Moscow would be open. In the early summer of 1943 he attacked, starting the biggest tankbattle in recent history. The battle was delayed for some months, because the new tanks, build by Porsche, arrived late. The new tanks were superior to the Russian ones, but the Red Army had many more and they could easily be replenished. The Germans could not. The German soldiers, and especially the SS-Panzer divisions were superior to the Soviets. Better motivated, better trained and better armed. But Stalin could easily fill his reserves and arm them. Transport to the Kursk-front was done by American trucks. Some troops were ordered into battle, without any guns.”
Student: It sounds, Master, that the chances were at least even.”
Master: “ Maybe the Germans in the end won the battle and lost the war, at the same time.”
Student: “How it this possible, Master.”
Master: “The German generals were against the offensive, but Hitler ignored their advice. Maybe, if the tanks were ready in early March, the Wehrmacht would have a fair chance. But Zjoekov knew about the attack. He was informed by British intelligence and used the German delay to build as many anti-tank ditches, fortifications and minefields as possible. The Germans had to pass these defenses to become mobile and use their material superiority. In the end they did, but there were hardly any tanks, airplanes or soldiers left. Kursk took millions of casualties and thousands of tanks. Some Wehrmacht-divisions completely disappeared and Russian tankbrigades were completely annihilated.”
Student: “Master, you said the Nazis won at Kursk. “
Master: “Theoretically they did, but they could not profit. The generals and fieldmarshalls knew that the war was lost. They made the calculations. Nazi-Germany could not fill the ranks of the empty divisions, fighting in Russia or construct new tanks and fighters for the Luftwaffe. From that moment on, Germany fought an, excellent, war of retreat. A campaign that took almost 2 years and ended in Berlin.”
