*1 STILL not the most ridiculous Trotskyite or post Trotskyite position.

Darn, I already had him... I classify him under authoritarian socialist instead of Trotskyite, is all.
That is one description of LaRouche. Cult leader would be one I would use.

The 1989 novel Red Army by Ralph Peters depicts the Soviet Union/Warsaw Pact winning a conventional WWIII against NATO.
probably took the guy 2-3 years to write it.. only to have his whole idea trashed by real eventsWhat a poorly timed plot. By 1989 the USSR was crumbling.
For a Soviet "win", you could try modifying the scenario from Sir John Hackett's The Third World War. That is set in 1985, but was written in the 1970s, and showed the West winning only because of a reversal of defence policies of the '70s (reversals which pretty much took place and then some IOTL under Reagan). The 'win' in this case wouldn't be unconditional surrender by NATO/USA, but would be the Soviets achieving their war aim of occupying Europe up to the French border and the political collapse of the NATO alliance. The thing there is making sure that no-one on the NATO side is prepared to risk nuclear exchange on behalf of Germany or the Low Countries (not too implausible), whilst also ensuring the Soviet conventional attack is successful (and fast) enough to ensure they don't feel the need to use nukes to send a message (which is what happened in the book). If the attack happens sooner, or if western leaders (principally Reagan and Thatcher) don't stiffen their resolve as per OTL, I could see this scenario as a pos
Agreed.
You flip West Germany to the Warsaw Pact, and "findlandize" France and you have a Soviet Dominated World.
No, Unconditional Surrender, but no one would doubt that the Soviets won the Cold War.
