The Nazis needed that raw earth from the Kuomintang.
I’m surprised Hitler attacking his ally Stalin after their invasion of Poland isn’t in the bottom frame.
When Churchill was foreign minister, he warned everyone that Hitler couldn’t be trusted because he was known for breaking treaties. Everyone else at the time thought Hitler wouldn’t do anything if he was left alone. It was when Hitler attacked Poland that everyone then believed Churchill and gave him support that made him Prime Minister.
Stalin should have realised this as well.
Stalin literally had a breakdown when Hitler invaded because he couldn’t imagine is bud attacking him.
Japan aided the Polish resistance?
Thanks, but that just says the Japanese government remained in contact with the resistance, there’s no mention of aid.
You’re saying thoughts and prayers aren’t aid?
“Temporarily puts aside differences”? The only think keeping the capitalists from shooting at the communists was being on opposite sides of Germany. They were both maneouvering politically before, during and after. Sometimes the different types of marxists DID shoot at each other. The left is nothing if not consistent on that front. The capitalists meanwhile were so anxious about communists in Western Europe that you’re arbitrarily right just because they refused to intervene in Spain and Portugal and somehow declared they had defeated fascism while leaving both under fascist dictatorships until the 1970s while they smoothly rolled into the Cold War and proceeded to do the same to a bunch of other countries.
Bit rose tinted, that.

Of course, the extensive strategic cooperation and material aid didn’t exist, they were just refraining from shooting at each other.

You do remember that WW2 was to stop fascist interventions in neighboring countries, right?
Could have told that to the Spanish when they were being bombed by German planes. See, they thought they were a democracy being attacked by a fascist coup receiving political and military aid from the Nazis, but they didn’t realize that they didn’t have a land border with Germany, so it didn’t count. That was their real problem. See, the British got bombed when France was already Nazi, so that counted and they got liberated. Should have waited a few years. Rookie mistake.

Yes, WW2 did not start at the first fascist interventions. Congratulations for knowing what every schoolchild is taught?
