Saying the “H” Word: Hitler

Fortunately for me I’m not a politician. So it’s perfectly fine for me to choose Hitler as a topic for discussion. Whenever a politician mentions this man, it doesn’t matter what they were trying to communicate, the message gets lost because the only word anybody hears is the “H” word. Hitler! His name is almost like a cuss word to so many people. At least, it’s that way in the western world. Not sure if the non-western world has a different point of view about the man.

 

Adolph Hitler is by far one of the most notorious political leaders in the history of mankind.

Ya think? How could you not think that? Have you any idea how many different documentaries about this man have been televised? That’s just the documentaries. Add in the dramatizations or movies. Between Hitler and Henry VIII, you could be tempted to believe they are only two infamous cruel historical figures that ever existed.

 

Oh well! Might as well jump on the Hitler bandwagon and do a quick write-up on this bad guy who people can’t seem to get enough of.

 

Adolph (or Adolf) Hitler (1889 -1945)

Hitler quotes:

“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”

“He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.”

 

Certainly sounds like the type of chap you want as your next door neighbor.  Ya think?

  • Born in Austria
  • Moved to Munich in his early 20s
  • Soldier in the German army during World War I
  • Hated Jews so much he wrote a book about it!
  • Believed his “theory” about racial superiority was TRUE!
  • Appointed chancellor of Germany in 1933
  • Became Führer of the Third Reich * in 1934
  • Provoked World War II
  • His own men tried to assassinate him (Of course, that was just a movie: “Valkyrie”.  Or was it?)

 

Took his own life – committed suicide when Berlin fell to the Russians

(That’s what “they” say.  I would prefer confirmation.  What really happened on April 30, 1945?)
