The Russians and the Germans were actually allied until 1941, in a 'treaty of convienience.' Hitler made a deal with Stalin that would enable them to share central Europe while Germany would be free to conquer the West. Of course no side had any intention of honouring this for longer than was absolutely necessary.
It wasn't an alliance, it was a non aggression treaty, which Germany defied.
No he was not. His bloodline has nothing to do with it. My great grandfather was an atheist but he carried on the Jewish traditions to my grandfather. I am actually descended from many people who did not consider themselves Jewish, even though they were descended from the Kohens.
I am not Jewish. My ancestors are. Hitler is not Jewish. His ancestors are. Case closed.
Facepalm...
Jewish is more often used to refer to the Jewish race, not the religion.
my granddad whas a german mechanic, (so I know he never killed anybody, phew.) and whitout the war I wouldn't write this.
why?
well, my granddad lived in erfurt (east) and my grandma in emden (west.) they wouldn't have met if the war didn't occure. that's a little doubtfull i think....
( I hate war. please don't forget that one.)
my granndad has been transferred from the netherlands to germany because he had given food to dutch children. WTF!
his arm was cut off by a grenadesplitter, it's a miracle he survived that.
the parents of my grandma once said to him: 'It's dangerous out there. please stay here, you are save here.' his reaction: 'If I would stay here, I would be a traitor. Traitors are put in the KZ. (concentration camps.)
I think some people recognise his story. sometimes, you have no choise... even if you know you are on the wrong side.
he wasn't if he was, he wouldn't live in WOII. he was hit by chlorine gas: much better surviving changes.
Mustard gas...
On 15 October 1918, Hitler was admitted to a field hospital, temporarily blinded by a mustard gas attack. The English psychologist David Lewis and Bernhard Horstmann suggest the blindness may have been the result of a conversion disorder (then known as "hysteria".[40] In fact, Hitler said it was during this experience that he became convinced the purpose of his life was to "save Germany." Some scholars, notably Lucy Dawidowicz,[41] argue that an intention to exterminate Europe's Jews was fully formed in Hitler's mind at this time, though he probably had not thought through how it could be done. Most historians think the decision was made in 1941, and some think it came as late as 1942.
Oh, and reading the wiki reminded me that Hitler was almost a vegetarian, if memory serves after the death of a relative, not eating red meat.
Also from the wiki, Hitler was a non-smoker and promoted aggressive anti-smoking campaigns throughout Germany. (See Anti-tobacco movement in Nazi Germany.)[351] Hitler "despised" alcohol.[352]
Another interesting fact is that every girl he got close to committed suicide.
Jewish is more often used to refer to the Jewish race, not the religion.
You are Jewish.
You're joking? Semite is the race, not Jewish. Semites are descended from Abraham and Abraham. Arabs believe Abraham was Muslim. Israelites believed Abraham was Jewish.
I am not Jewish. I am Semitic. You are uneducated.
