After being in a history tutorial, where the tutor spoke about the mainstream historical interpretation of WW2 being that "it was a war against tyranny" yes i agree with this point it was also a war "for democracy" yes i agree with this point being widely believed, but war to "stop the Holocaust"? I don't agree that this is a mainstream belief & can find no supporting evidence that people believe this to be true yet the tutor seems to see this as a wide misconseption of the public today?
I know that the war was fought for politics & the fear that Hitler would continue to feed his own dream of a Europe possibly the world ruled by Germany, a Germany guided by his influence. Not a war fought to save Jewish lives, but a war to stop the encroachment of German law on their own soils.
Am i missing a whole group of people who believe otherwise or could the historian be wrong?
Sorry got carried away with my Question hehe. Hi im Chris a social sciences student from Edinburgh, i fell in here when looking for some clue as to the answer to my question about the mainstream historical interpretation of World War 2 & whether my tutor is playing me a "run with" topic or he's just off his head lol
