Or we could just use the fanatics as cannon fodder, and we'd have a zero-upkeep military.

If Hitler had not come to power (or hadn't been virulently anti-Semitic), the Germans would have conquered the world.

Before WWII, Germany had a massive lead in nuclear research, and most of their nuclear scientists were Jews. If the Jews had not been driven out, the Germans would have uncovered the secrets of nuclear weapons long before any other nation and used them to bully the rest of the world into submission.

It was because of German Jewish scientists that WWI was so long and so brutal, because if not for Dr Haber, WWI would have ended in early 1915 when Germany's supply of ammonium nitrate ran out. Instead, the Jewish scientist discovered a way to make synthetic explosives, prolonging the war and changing the course of world history. He was later exiled by Hitler and shunned by the British as an agent of German militarism. His wife committed suicide and he died broken and alone.

Jewish slave labor was used to construct V-2 cruise missiles, but the Jewish slaves deliberately introduced defects to every few missiles, making the weapons system not only fundamentally a waste of resources, but also overly prone to malfunction. Then again, if Hitler had spent those resources on building Me-262 fighters instead of cruise missiles, the Germans would absolutely have won the war. He didn't, because he was batshit insane and obsessed with terror bombing targets of no military value.

Jewish soldiers would not have made a difference in the war, but if they hadn't been driven out of the country, today, we would all be speaking German.

Or maybe the Germans wouldn't have ruled the world because aliens would've come from distant planets and enslaved all the Germans because, allegedly, they were the most advanced nation during the time (in terms of weaponry)...

We don't know if aliens exist or what they are like.

We do know that the German Jews existed and who they were and what they were doing.

6 million jews would have what, 2-3 million men? thats a lot of foot troops that thankfully we didn't have to fight. things could have gone very differently in ww2 in dozens of different ways.

No because:

-Not all were German
-Not all were of fighting age
-3M more fighting men means ~10-30M more workers and farmers needed to support them in the field
-3M more troops would not have made a difference because the war was lost to strategic failure not sheer numbers

that's a lot of resources that could have been redistributed to other theaters of operations. not to mention the troops needed to man the concentration camps.

I'm not saying it would have changed the outcome, but it certainly would have been a different war.

Maybe 100,000 troops would not have changed the war because the issues were strategic.

The Germans recruited children, old men, Austrians and Ukranians towards the end of both wars and it made no difference whatsoever.

The Soviets were massively outproducing everyone by the end of the war. An extra million German troops would just have drawn out the inevitable. As Aestu pointed out, it's the technology that mattered.

Not so much tech as having the initiative and control of the board.

If the Germans had invaded England instead of, or even in addition to, Russia.
If the Germans hadn't wasted such resources in a quixotic effort to take Cairo or Cyprus.
If the Germans had focused their resources on heavy tanks instead of light tanks, or fighters instead of bombers.
If the Germans had the good sense to leave the Americans alone.
If Hitler hadn't snoozed through D-Day and stopped the Allies at the beach.

Any of those changes would probably have thrown the outcome.

Some of those later ones would just have shifted the Soviet/Free World border at the end of the war. The USSR was gonna steamroll eventually; an unsuccessful D-Day would just have resulted in like, Spain and England being the only non-Soviet-Bloc countries in Europe. Likewise American nonintervention. Stalin would have done all the work, and Western Europe would have been commie by 1946.
