I don't know where you live but France didn't dismember Germany nor they were allies with the soviet they didn't even took part in the german war of agression. But if dimemberment you mean East Prussia given to Poland as reparation and the restauration of Austria and Checkoslovakia indepence then yes it was dismenbered.Scipio,
We always have that thrown up. Yes Germany was anti-semitic in the run up to the war but no more so than many other European countries of the time.
Most people will readily admit that the Nazis made use of violent rhetoric and offensive racial stereotypes. To jump from there to some kind of emulation of the Armenian genocide is, I think, a little far-fetched.
It strikes me that "The Germans would have doen terrible things" is simply an excuse for the dismemberment of that country by the French and their Soviet Allies after their victory.
Perhaps if France had surrendered in 1940 we could have seen a re-balancing of the iniquities of the Post First World War Peace Settlements.
We could have seen a more equitable peace develop, rather than laying the groundwork for the subsequent conflicts that have ravaged the Continent ever since.
As difficult as it may be for most French patiots to admit, if they had not had their "Finest Hour" in 1940, they may have been spared the following decades that have bled the country white.

HUH? It's a DBWI, isn't it?
I'm simply stating what happened after France (and the British until 1942) successfully repulsed the German attack in 1940.
The determination to ensure that Germany "Never Again" threatened France did lead to some pretty grim repercussions.
To pretend those never happened? I think you must be living in some kind of alternate universe.
