    If they threatened war, they would have been attacked.

    We don’t know that, nor if the attack on Poland would’ve gone ahead with the threat from both sides. That’s why it would’ve been a gamble. Then again, so was making a deal with them, Germany might have continued on the attack once both sides met in Poland.

      Gotcha, so your point is that you denounce the Soviets for not taking an almost assured loss, and you do tkae Goebbels at his word even when evidence points to the contrary.
