What do you think of Hitler as a person. Some would say he is awesome some like me would say he wasnt a very good person. And maybe what your saying is true.

don't agree with that he decided who and when they should attack.


You should also take The Battle of The Bulge into consideration.

He wasn't betrayed, these guys never wanted him they were partisans, they fought against him from the beginning.


Oh, I thought that they were once blackshirts or something.
Still, there were fellow Italians.

At the end Hitler had started loosing the control and all the officers tried to do whatever they could to protect the Nazism.

He promised that Czechoslovakia was the last piece of territory he wanted.


He actually just wanted the Sudetenland. That's what he promised to Neville Chamberlain and the French Premier. I can't remember his name, and even if I did, I wouldn't know how to spell it. Needless to say, he lied....

He was a dictator and they wanted democracy, they were and are heroes for all mankind.

Hitler is the greatest villain in human history.


No Hitler was not great by the definition we recognize in the word today (very good). But this statement acknowledges that he was great in one respect.

All great men have enemies, that means that he is great.


What? This is saying that all great men out there have enemies, you can't turn it around and say a guy with enemies is great. It doesn't work that way.

I think Hitler was crazy.

I agree that Hitler was crazy and evil. What I see here though is not really disagreement on that point, but disagreement over how to define "great".

I have lost a bit the word thing, I think and read only math, economy and phsics.

No. His actions, and ideas, were more than enough to disprove this. He may have been brilliant by some standards, but that brilliance lead to the death of millions.

Hitler was crazy, he was a crazy dumb-as s fool who should have undergone every torture treatment he ever created and has been created for what he did to the jews, anybody that says hitler was great deserves to die too.

Why are we debating the word great? It's a simple yes (with reason) or no (with reason) question.
Was he or was he not a great person in the words most simplistic definition.

I dont think what he did was okay, killing millions of people. (even tho the U.S does it..)

But i think he was very smart. considering he made some great things.

I'm not a huge fan of my country's actions, but where the hell are you getting this from? Millions of death?
