American and British were concerned that USSR might negotiate for peace deal with Hitler if they were to leave USSR to its own fate but had their intelligence underestimated Hitler's determination to crush the communists?

By withholding operation Normandy and the lend lease to USSR, perhaps they might come in later part when both Germany and USSR had greatly exhausted their strength and exploit the situations.

The bottom line is that USSR might not be the superpower we know of during the cold war.

Your thoughts?

Was the old West really romantic?

The West as a geographic Region has been viewed as romantic place where new opportunity and rugged individualism flourished in the latter half of the 19th century.

Anyone care to challenge the notion of this romanticism by looking at the frontier thesis, the struggles of farmers, miners and ethnic groups that populated the Great Plains and the Far West?

Why did the American Revolution not (generally) sink to bestial levels of brutality?

There were some atrocities committed (by both sides) in the Revolutionary War. But, by comparison with the French Revolution, or certainly with the much later Russian Revolution, atrocities committed by soldiers upon one another or upon civilians appear to have been relatively few in both number and scale. This despite the fact that propagandists such as Paine were spewing out inflammatory tracts that could only be interpreted as incitements to extreme brutality.

So, how was it that conduct between enemies in the Revolutionary War was so comparatively restrained?

Or am I simply wrong in judging it to have been restrained?
