Biggest Idiots of WW2

World War II was humanity’s deadliest conflict, but some of its most powerful leaders made decisions so reckless they turned strategy into disaster. From dictators who thought they could conquer Russia without a coat, to admirals who woke the “sleeping giant,” and generals who built billion-franc fortresses with gaping blind spots, these are the choices that reshaped the war through sheer stupidity.

This is not the myth of brilliant wartime leadership — this is the reality of the biggest idiots of World War II.
