No offense Tsar, but without Hitler Germany would've never been as good as it was. Hitler turned the devastated Germany economy into a powerhouse within his regime, if Germany would have waited before actually starting the war they could've developed the atomic bomb first and their economy would be strong than that of the United States and UK combined at the time. It's obscene to think a pre-Hitler Germany would surpass the United States, I don't care what the thread owner says it couldn't happen. Hitler did several things that made Germany very strong, even if people frowned upon his ideals. Hitler's political and economic methods allowed Germany to develop the nuclear theory and develop Germany in the fields of military advancement, they had the first jet planes which if they would've worked on them instead of discontinuing them they could've made reliable and won D-Day, winning WW2. Don't ever insult a key figure from history, even if you disagree with their methods, most of them did something to get where they were to commit these atrocities and some did some good things or world altering things that were for the good of humanity.
Don't get me wrong, the man was a brilliant leader and a great politician; It's just that many of his military tactics and ideas (invading Russia, rushing war) where not very wise.
Well, it was that or when he warred Britain have a 8 million man army blitz into Berlin. Otto Von Bismarck once said that the key to German success is to ally Russia. Well after Otto died, his successors broke ties with Russia, which ended up screwing Hitler over because he had no one to defend his back.
