From eugenics (although it didn't start there) to human furnaces and a plan to destroy or enslave everyone else, they were evil inside and out. Their hypocrisy can only be measured in giant scale, and people are still fighting about what was real and what wasn't. Ever read "The Pink Swastika?"
These pictures superimpose now and then images to make one consider other outcomes. Very interesting, to me.

It was just an interesting picture. None of the pictures in this thread are realistic. There is no cheerleading for Nazis nor hidden hopes that they might have succeeded. Much the same as the Turtledove books present a good yarn, pictures of a GI and R2D2 or Nazi bombers over New York are just for fun and should not provoke such a passionate response...

The invasion plan as outlined above stood zero chance of prevailing for a variety of reasons including but not limited to its reliance on "5th columnists" and Japanese success in war in the Pacific.
The only way an invasion would succeed is if the Axis powers developed nuclear weapons AND had a device capable of delivering them on target. Remember the ww-2 nukes weighed over 10,000 lbs. They would have been useless weapons without a B-29 type of capability which neither Germany or Japan possessed.
All you have to do is read the preparations for Operation Olympic which involved the invasion of a much smaller land mass that had been devastated by aerial bombardment with a population the fraction of the US to see exactly how difficult it would be for Germany and Japan to invade much less hold the US.
The Germans lost the war with Operation Barbarosa. That said that was their best shot at winning since the USSR would do nothing but get stronger if they waited.

( either from reverse engineering from relics or direct help from aliens ). The pictures postulate a alternate history where extraterrestrials ( The federation) take a active roll on the axis powers side. And the Allies get active assistance from the rebels
The
"Federation"? I think you mean the
"Empire".

let's go back to the Great War
I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.
