The World's War Against Communism
Debate on its start
Historians are still debating what the proper starting date for the Second World War is; Sean McKeekin's Stalin's War addresses this:
It has always been a stretch to lump together all the wars on globe between the Japanese invasion of Manchuria in September 1931 and Japan's final capitulation in September 1945, as many historians are now conceding. Victor Davis Hanson's recent general history "The Second World Wars" illustrates the point, as does Antony Beevor when he opens his own history, "The Second World War", by conceding it was "an amalgamation of conflicts".
—Sean McMeekin, Stalin's War, page 2 and 3.
The historiography of World War II is thus based on what you believe to be the unifying thread between all the conflicts of the around 15-year-period between 1930 and 1945 (though continuations of these conflicts, such as the Partisan struggle within the USSR, kept going for years following the year of 1945).
Different Interpretarions
Stalin-centered model
A recent theory proposed regarding the events of the Second World War is the Stalin (or, at times, more generally "Communist") centered model. Argued most prominently by Viktor Suvorov and Sean McMeekin, it bases itself on the prominent role of the USSR within the lead-up, fighting and post-war period(s) of WW2.
Hitler-centered model
The English game is very risky. Russia won't let itself be caged so easily. The responsibility for this war, after all, contrary to what is often believed, can't be put on me. Some day, for example, it will be known that my army has fought in the Spanish Civil War with English approval!
—Benito Mussolini, Quinto Navarra, Memorie del commesso di Mussolini, Milano, Longanesi, II 1983 edition [IT].
The common model utilized by the system is the Hitler-centered model regarding the Second World War, though it is considered by serious historians to be inaccurate.
Anglosaxon-centered model
Some historians, such as those at the Institute for Historical Review, believe that the blame for the war should be put on the United States of America and the British Empire, together with their allies.
Other interpretations
Background
Soon after the communist take-over of Russia, judeo-Marxists infiltrated nearly every country on the planet. These infiltrations generally resulted in a lot of street-fighting, civil untest, and public Mayhem. Simultaneously in almost every nation on Earth. These civil war attempts worked increasingly well and these judeo-Marxist agitators, who reported directly to Moscow, simply had the job of reproducing those same efforts in other countries.
Often referred to as "World War Two", Marxist propaganda typically tries to blame the entire affair on Adolf Hitler by claiming that Germany's entry in the war was the first engagement, or that Germany's declaration of war was the first such declaration. Neither are true.
Pre-war Communist Cause
After the Marxist takeover of Russia, the judeo-Marxist regime sent infiltrators into nearly every nation on Earth. These agitators answered directly to Moscow, and their duty was an attempt to duplicate the judeo-Marxist success in Russia. As fascists rose to answer this challenge, nearly every country on the planet was dealing with a communist takover attempt.
The start of the Hotwar
When civil war broke out in Spain, as fascist forces attempted to remove the communists, Hitler and Mussolini lent military support to the anti-communist fascist rebels, led by General Francisco Franco. Italy supported the fascists to a greater extent than the National Socialists did: altogether Mussolini sent to Spain more than 70,000 ground troops and 6,000 aviation personnel, as well as about 720 aircraft. The Soviet Union supported the puppet government of the Spanish Republic. More than 30,000 foreign communist sympathizers, mostly jews, known as the International Communist Brigades, also fought against the fascists. The Soviet Union used this proxy war as an opportunity to test in combat their most advanced weapons and tactics. The fascists overthrew the communist puppet government in April 1939; Franco, voted in as new administrator, remained officially neutral during World War II but generally favored the Axis. As he was rebuilding Spain, his greatest collaboration with the Axis was the sending of volunteers to fight on the Eastern Front.
