Answer 1

The war in Europe finished in May 1945 when the Russians sacked Berlin and the Germans surrended. The US, British and French troops, along with their other allies, and the Soviets, took the surrender jointly.

The War in the Pacific ended in August 1945 following the US Atomic bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki earlier that month. The Japanese were already sueing for peace prior to the Atomic bombs being dropped. The Japanese surrended formerly on the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay with the US, Britain and Australia at the signing ceremony.

The Germans started WW-2 with the invasion of Poland in September 1939 whilst the Japanese attacked Pearl Habour and other targets in December 1942 (although they were already fighting the Chinese and had occupied Korea and Manchuria earlier). The US had been assisting, unofficially, the National Chinese government fighting against the Japanese since 1938.

Answer 3

"In the course of my life I have very often been a prophet, and have usually been ridiculed for it. During the time of my struggle for power, it was in the first instance only the Jewish race that received my prophecies with laughter when I said that I would one day take over the leadership of the state and with it that of the whole nation and that I would then among other things settle the Jewish problem...but I think that for some time now they have been laughing on the other side of their face. Today I will once more be a prophet: if the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevising of the earth and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!".
