Question

What was the aim of the Hitler behind the attack on Soviet Russia?

Answer 1

Answer:

During World War 2, Hitler was fighting a war with Great Britain, but while fighting that war, he attacked the Soviet Union. Everyone knows that having to fight on two opposite fronts at once is bad... and it's also a well known fact that every European country which tried to invade Russia has always been thoroughly beaten.

So apart from the standard "he was a crazy guy bent on taking over the world" answer, what was the rationale behind launching a full-scale attack on the Soviet Union while still actively fighting the British Empire..

Answer 2

Answer:

Behind conquering Eastern Europe or Russia, Hitler had a long-term aim. He wanted a regular  supply of food grains for German citizens as well as  living space.
