If it just wasnt for that lttle "genocide" thing, the purging of millions of members of his society, as well as introducing the world to the forward looking concept of "Strategic Bombing" on civilian populations, hItler would be celebrated as a great leader of the 20th century. Hed be right up there with STalin .
Thank you for reminding us that Hitler was really a great guy. AND, a painter? what a painter he was. He could paint a room in 3 hours. TWO COATS!.
Many nations have had genocide on the order of their military campaigns, how was it that USA got founded? ..millions of natives slaugterd?
France also have had their share, though very little known.
Hitler wasn't the person who invented the concept of systematicly killing jews, he only signed the paper, thus we now blame him for an administrative thing, and even call him insane for doing so, I would call Nixon, Reagan, GW Bush greater dictators and more insane that Hitler. ..oh oh and does Hiroshima and Nagasagi ring a bell?
It isn't the numbers that makes someone insane or not sane, it's the action itself, which makes Hitler no worse than any other of those aforementioned leaders. But for the naive and manipulative it is the propaganda and spin that does it, sadly.
