Uppermost 1n Von Ribbentrop’s political philoso- phy is hatred of Soviet Russia, and late last November he pe: suaded Hitler to make one final push against Moscow. The General Staff was dead against it. They contended that the capture of Moscow was not significant from a military point of view and that with deepening snow it would he from.

Result was that the Russians, taking advantage of the fact that Rostov was left relatively unguard- downfall of Moscow, some of the delegates, especially the Rumanian, Bulgarian, and those along the bor- der of Russia, signed the document with strong misgivings. This was Hitler's first major mistake from the point of view of military gactics, and one from which he has never recovered. For the Russians, taking advantage of it, have kept steadily pounding at! the heels of the Nazi army.
