DBWI: what if Hitler didn't invade Russia?

how would Hitler power his Panzer and Luffwaffte divisions without his 'german' oilfields in the Caucas Mountains?

Would his grab for land suddenly halt?

Would he had go on the defensive?

Can i stop asking qustions?:p
 
Now correct me if I'm wrong but this isn't a DBWI, it's just a WI, because for it to be a DBWI it would have to ask "What if Hitler did invade Russia," because in a DBWI you're suppose have a POD that acutally did happen IOTL, but then everyone is suppose to make horrribly inaccurate predictions totally different then from what acutally did happen. Wow that was a long sentence.

You could have expressed this in much more condensed form by saying "Wait until Mr.P sees this!"
 
(OOC: This is a DBWI- because this is a timeline where Hitler WINS the War ;))

Without the Siberian oil fields Hitler would concentrate much more on the Middle East. Perhaps Turkey would be forced into the war? A German SU alliance against Turkey and then an assult on Syria/ Iraq. The Middle East would probably not be the save haven for Jews it is today.
 
my bad guys I just ment that Hitler succesfully invades the Soviet Union and captures their oil fields

Im kinda new to this so be easy

Mh? Didn't you set the thread's title as "DBWI: what if Hitler didn't invade Russia?" or was that edited by someone?

Alright everybody, let's give the guy a break - it wasn't the best choice for thread title, but he did technically do a DBWI since in OTL the Germans didn't capture the Caucasus.
 
It's just like Turtledove's "Must and Shall" story is about the North beating the South in the Civil War, except different. There ought to be more DBWI like these with similar outcomes to OTL, except different. Unfortunately, they would be even harder to do, because people don't know what DBWI are, and usually cannot process the irony of such alternate outcomes.
