The one that historians will argue in 200 years time is "What is the US had not invaded Iraq in 2003".
We aren't even 20 per cent of the way through the ripples of that one.
Recall than in 2002/03 Putin was still very much keen to be friendly with the West - wanted to sell Europe gas and be left alone to repair Russian society after the impact of de-Sovietisation.
Tony Blair was still riding high and would probably have ended up further wedding Britain to the EU, making Brexit not happen.
FFS, without the Iraq War turning US society against Bush so hard, you'd have no Obama, no Obama = no Trump.
Some forces were already unleashed - notably the financialisation of everything leading to an inevitable 2008 type crash and the impending probably already underway megacrash that kills neo-liberalism once and for all.
Climate change was baked in.
But politically, DECIDING to attack Iraq in 2003 was an enormous turning point.
What if Germany win WW2 and the state of Israel was never created?
Yes, it was the key element.Wasnt invading iraq also about the dollar v the euro?
They would have survived longer but the Germans would have still murdered them eventually.However had the Germans pushed the Russians over the urals, many Jewish folk would of survived. Many died from disease or starvation due to the war against Russia and having been forced to flee. The Russians burnt everything down as they retreated, scorched earth policy. Leaving so many homeless in a war zone.

Modern Day Israel would be part of Jordan and the Jews, Christians and Muslims of the country would probably be living in relative harmony.So how would the world be if they had been wiped out/nearly wiped out and Israel never formed?

When the Russians approached Warsaw, eisenhower encouraged the Jewish to rise up against the Germans, knowing full well the Russians would slaughter them.
Some say the Russians were worse

ok then

There’s a very good chance that if they confronted Russia that Russia would have steamrolled them all the way back into France. The Russians were humming at that stage.From what I've read some high up Americans wanted that to happen, and I am sure that the re armed German divisions would have joined the Allies and taken out Stalin, and the world would be a different place altogether, we would still have a Israel problem though, because Germany would have still done its deed on them, so for that to happen all the Nazis would have had to have been dobbed into the allies, but Eisenhower pulled his forces up and let the Russians take out Berlin , there must have been a reason an agreement of some kind, but I reckon if ever the west could have changed the world that was the time.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT , THEY DIDN'T!
Maybe , I think the poor Russians were belly filled with violence forced front line fighting , shot to death by their own if they retreated, Stalin was a sick person between the ears, and I suspect many soldiers hated him, but the Soviets fought magnificently , I doubt they would have pushed the allies back to France , but you see re arming a terrified Wehrmacht who knew they'd lost the war, the German normal army, the regulars and recruits and conscripted would have definitely come to the party , but the Western Allies aren't treacherous mongrels like Hitler and Stalin. So we got the cold war. Stalin was a horrific critter, pity when he thought all was lost early on that he didn't jump out a 50 story building, the world would have been a better place.There’s a very good chance that if they confronted Russia that Russia would have steamrolled them all the way back into France.

Germany had the technology to build a nuke, just not the recourses.Germany (Europe) would have been a nuclear power under Hitler. Imagine that! German scientists would have stayed and Germans lead space race. Jewish race would have been virtually exterminated. U.S would have been under threat and never reached super power status.
Or like most empires would Germany simply have been too big and caused its collapse eventually? Although that may have taken some time
What is Al Gore wins the 2000 US election?

How many of the Wehrmacht (of decent quality) were left at the end of WW2?
With the Western Allies not bombing the German factories and the German war economy being run by someone by someone with half a clue they could probably roll out enough equipment to destroy those tanks faster than the Russian could ship them to the front. (German kill ratios vs russian armor were already pretty good)If the top of my head I think the issue is that the Russians had one of the best tanks, and had much more of them then anyone else combined. They would have just kept rolling and would have been very hard for the allies to stop them

Yep the Germans problem was that they couldn't absorb their losses as much as the Russians could.Germans slaughtered armoured army after army in a crazy scale. Proving its Not how many tanks you have, it's how you use them.
