The decisions made at Tehran and Yalta. And the decision to supply the Soviet Union. They never intended to save Poland. They could've easily done so by actually making good on their promise when the war began, which is the reason why Poland steadfastly refused any and all peaceful resolutions with Germany but they decided to do nothing and watch.
Duh. Both are just Realpolitik. You think they're supplying Ukraine out of the goodness of their hearts? Or for that matter, that they supplied anti-Soviet Nazis and mass murderers in the aftermath of WW2 because they had sympathy for Nazis?
Now you have arrived at a valid criticism. Their 'strategy', such as it was, was appallingly bad. Actually, the French had promised Poland an offensive into Germany. So they stepped in, took 200 meters of land (or something, it was notional), then withdrew. This even though Germany's western border was close to being undefended.
They thought they could strangle Germany with a blockade like they did in WW1.
Yes. But the official WW2 narrative is a fairy tale and that's precisely what I'm attacking.
And they probably didn't want to have to deal with the Soviet Union. In any case they were unbelievable retarded and that's pretty much the only reason why Germany was as successful as it was.
Is "the official narrative" not the work of historians? I have yet to see even one who claims that it was anything but Realpolitik.
They certainly were negligent in that regard, probably because they thought the Soviet Union could never reach an accord with Germany. But a main stumbling block was the fact that Poland would not allow Soviet troops to pass through its territory to fight Germany - for very good reason, because they might never leave. Of course, if there had been an accord, then Germany would never have invaded.
The work of historians? Which historians? The ones that say A or the ones that say B? Or perhaps that say C? If you tell me that you've never seen someone that said a variation of "Hitler wanted to conquer the world!" I'm going to call bullshit.
The official narrative is the one that's approved and pushed by Politics and Media.
