I'm not saying that Germany and Russia were great by any means, I'm saying that since their since economies prospered during the Great Depression that it proves the idea that 'all government intervention is bad' is wrong. 

The extreme government interaction led to Nazism and "Communism"  that lead to two of the worst killing sprees in the history of the world.

I'd say your arguement is a bit off base.  Furthermore, their intervention was much more solid.

To use other governments as a case study that used much more drastic means seems like a bad move.

Is your argument that in order for government intervention to work it has to be extreme?

A better case for my idealogy would be Scandinavia, but prosperity during the Great Depression is a easy example to look at to disprove the notion that government intervention hurts the economy.
