    To hijack this thread with a question. I have heard explanation on how Munich was attempt to make Hitler go East and crush the USSR. But how does that account for the fact that when Hitler indeed went East the French and Britons declared war on Germany?

      Stalin made non-aggression pack with Hitler to buy time for Russian military production under the Russian semi-industrialized economy. The non-aggression pack shows that Western European empires cannot force Soviet Union to bear all the war efforts so they end the free riding and follow Stalin to stop Fascism.

      They did almost nothing for 8 months except some proxy fighting. Also, they planned to actually attack… USSR, in june or july 1940. They even started force relocation for this, but were thwarted when Germany attacked France. Read about Operation Pike, even on wiki.
