What If ??

I was just thinking ( a painfull process) through my Brandy induced ,day after, 4th of July haze.
Has anyone ever read any specualtion on what would have happened,if the Axis powers had won WWII?
Hitler, I'm sure,even though allied with Japan, saw the Japanese as an inferior race. My thought is that, if the Axis won, Hitler would have either Nuked Japan or would have forced them to copitulate, under the theat of a nuclear attack. I can't believe he would have shared the world power with them. Hypothetically speaking, the fact that we won the war, may well have saved the entire Japanese race from genocide. Ironic!

Although probably not a serious look at this, Rutger Hauer, one of my favorite actors, starred in this TV movie. I liked his role in INSIDE THE THIRD REICH much better as Albert Speer.
FATHERLAND shows a world where Nazi Germany won the Second World War after repulsing the Allied invasion at Normandy. Now, in the 1960's, Germany continues to fight a bitter guerilla war with the Soviet Union and desperately needs an alliance with the United States in order to finally beat Stalin's war machine. Local SS-homicide detective Xavier March begins investigating the mysterious death of a Nazi Party Official, March probes deeper and discovers the full truth that could destroy the peace process with America and a truth that Nazi and SS leaders will stop at nothing to keep hidden.

There was a show on the History Channel not too long ago, that showed how Hitler had based many if not most of his ideas of Nazi Germany on Japan's idealology. Many of the similarities are pretty obvious. Some of the similarities are due to one man, dedicated to Hitler, who lived in Japan...
