So my question is if Israel was somehow able to be overrun and defeated, be it in 1948, 1967, 1973, or even if somehow an Intifada leads to an Arab army overrunning the country, what happens from there? I realize that this just wouldn't happen, but I am asking you to consider the consequences...

So for some reason or another, it's up to you, the Lend Lease act only applies to Britain and not the Soviets. The task here is to explain why this occurs even if everything else goes OTL as well as what it's effect on the Eastern front is. I think it could have a huge impact. The Soviets were...

So we know that Charles XII did not get married throughout his life and had no heirs. Is there any way you see him agreeing to a marriage alliance at some point? Who are some of the best possible candidates, and what do they offer to him personally and politically? What might the...

The idea is simple. Hitler feels that Germany should get back its territory from WW1 victory in the East and is satisfied with that in terms of his goals for living space. The way he sees it is that due to the natural German superiority over the Asiatic Hordes, they can simply invade again in...

So the concept of launching Operation Typhoon has been debated quite a bit, but my thinking is, why not go ahead with the early aspects of it that bagged tons of Soviet casualties at little cost, and then simply entrench before testing Moscow? My thinking on this is that you stop the...

So on another thread, a line of discussion came up about Bush 43. He was in my estimation in over his head as president, but relatively successful as Governor of Texas. Maybe this is just the Peter Principle. He seemed like a nice guy who basically listened to terrible counsel and was not...

What I am presuming here is that Bush when running for office in 2000, runs without NeoCons as his intended advisors. So he wins the presidency, and after 9/11 hits, Saddam praises the attacks as OTL, but this time, Bush is not convinced that he ahs WMDs or is sponsoring AlQaeda as he doesn't...

I am curious as to what would have happened had the US returned to its isolationist past after WW2 and left the occupation of Germany to the British and French exclusively and occupied Japan but stayed out of the rest of the world. If this happened, and the US really did go back into an...

The network has been a bit of a flop, a great idea, but still a bit ahead of its time. What do you think Vince could have done to make the network more successful? The truth is that I really have enjoyed WWE programming lately even without Bryan as Steph has been just amazing as a heel (she...

Everybody remembers that absurd Iraqi Propaganda machine from the collapse of Saddam's reign and how he became at times absolutely hilarious to listen to ("There are no American Infidels in Baghdad!!!!" "The infidels are committing mass suicide at the gates of Baghdad!!" "We are surrounding them...

The Brandywine battlefield was a repeat of Long Island from the previous year with a British flanking force driving Washington from the field. Washington's army was actually well placed, well supplied, and had high morale for a change and certainly could have won the battle. Say he anticipates...

At a crucial juncture in the Battle of Lexington and Concord, a substantial Massachusetts Militia force from Salem and Marblehead under Colonel Timothy Pickering arrived in the vicinity and had an opportunity to block Lord Percy's route into Charlestown and safety by seizing the road over the...

Simply come up with a way for this to happen and than reflect on what its results could mean for the greater scope of the war.

I have been thinking for a while of all the failed attempts to make Britain be defeated by the Germans and I feel the only way for it to happen is some sort of domestic upheaval in Britain during the Great Depression. Say Britain has a Communist takeover through the radicalization of the Labour...
