Before I go on, I'd just like to say that Churchill is awesome. Pompus and egomaniacal? Yes...but still awesome.
Hitler made a few mistakes late in the game that probably cost him the war. If he had just kept bombing the Brits, but instead of the cities, bombing the freakin' bases, he could have knocked them out of the war...or even conquored them. Britian was the American, "landing pad," for when we moved into place for D-Day and such.
And then of course, Hitler did THE dumbest move of his military career...invaded Russia (Which he had earlier presueded to be "neutral" from the war). Stupid, stupid, stupid.
I suppose the point I'm trying to make is...it might not have happened anyway, as you suggest. Why didn't they revolt elsewhere, I should wonder.
Bah, whatever. I just don't think something like war is easy to just, "get over." That's all.
