Repeat. Hitler: head of industrial giant Germany.

Hamas: not.


Hamas.. part of an Islamo-Fascist ideology seeking to control 2/3rds of the global oil supply (upon which the world depends for its industrial growth).

What was one of the primary strategies we used to defeat Hitler? We cut off his access to oil from Ploesti, Rumania and other areas.

And Germany's synthetic fuel industry could not replace those losses.

If you doubt me, then read the history of the Ardennes offensive (battle of the bulge) where many German tanks simply ran out of fuel and had to be abandoned.

Read about how the Luftwaffe couldn't fly all of the planes they produced in 1945 because they lacked fuel (as well as trained pilots).

Read about how German industrial production in 1944 was actually much higher than at any previous time in the war, despite Allied bombing.
