Do you think Hitler was a genius, or no?
-
I think the title pretty much says it all. I personally think he was evil and deserved to die and go to hell where he belonged, but some people seem to think he was a genius mastermind, which I think is - excuse my language - bullshit. Your thoughts on this?

Answer:
Hitler was a genius. It took tremendous ability to rise from an obscure background to mastery of a nation that had long been governed by aristocratic elites. And it took greater ability still to elevate that nation from demoralization and near-bankruptcy to mastery of a continent. In a mere 20 years, Hitler rose from nobody status to absolute ruler of a big empire. Sure, he wasn't perfect; he made mistakes. Nevertheless, defeat was mainly due to geographical accident--his enemies (US, USSR, etc)--just happened to have vastly more resources. They made mistakes too, but had far more resources to prevail in spite of them; Adolf didn't. Hitler merely wanted to unite Germany to its 1914 position, when England and France attacked it. Hitler’s much touted attack on Poland on September 1st 1939 was merely to regain Danzig and German corridor with their 98% ethnic German population (under Polish possession) wrongly lost under the 1919 War Treaty of Versailles, that cut off East Prussia from the rest of Germany. Had England and France not attacked Germany (which they did on September 3rd 1939) there would have been no WW2. It was because of France and England the aggressors that so many died. http://saveyourheritage.com/bloody_sunday.htm Before Hitler, England France had attacked and enslaved more than 100 countries in Africa, Asia, America including Canada, and Australia, NZ etc. E & F were like a big bully of your school snatching away candy of small children the 3rd world countries. America got independence because of in fighting between E & F. Then along came Hitler who single handedly made German a superpower in a matter of few years. Hitler was also attacked by these big bullies. From a zero in 1920, Hitler took Germany to such heights that it took the might of all powers America, Britain, China, Russia, France etc to defeat Germany But thanks to Hitler, the 100 nations/small children which were enslaved by the Big Bullies like E & F got their freedom from Britain and France. Jews had no living space. Hitler also stated this fact in his biography that Jews have no place of their own so he (Hitler) proceeded to give them Israel. NO Hitler No Israel. Has any other person does so much for freedom of the 100s of the billions of the humans of world ?? we don't know what Jesus has done for millions of humans of his times, but we all know that Hitler gave freedom to billions of his times. - He took a nation that was demoralized and united it. - He performed an economic miracle on Germany - He did everything possible to avoid war with Britain & France - He allowed the British to escape at Dunkirk - He banned production of atomic weapons. - He didn't use chemical weapons against the D-Day invasion - He banned hunting - He banned cruel ritual slaughter on animals - He banned smoking on public transport John F. Kennedy say’s this about Hitler "After visiting these two places (Berchtesgaden and the Eagle's lair on Obersalzberg), you can easily understand how that within a few years Hitler will emerge from the hatred that surrounds him now as one of the most significant figures who ever lived. He had boundless ambitions for his country which rendered him a menace to the peace of the world, but he had a mystery about him in the way that he lived and in the manner of his death that will live and grow after him. He had in him the stuff of which legends are made." and then Kennedy is assassinated

No, he wasn't. He had a gift for absorbing figures and facts very quickly and use them in a rational manner. That impressed a lot of experts very much. Imagine you being a naval engineer or technical officer in the air force. You studied and worked for decades on your knowledge. Now the Fuhrer walks in your office, and asks very good specific questions. You immediately get the feeling you are dealing with an equal. What Hitler did before meeting those experts is to read up. He picked up a copy of Janes 'All the World Battleships', read it quickly and remembered most of the facts given there. Those facts he would remember and ask about. It is a trick, but you do need a very good memory for it. Apart from that, he had a lot of capable men doing the real work. Halmjar Schacht was a financial genius. He set up the economy, all Hitler did was make it possible for him to do so.

No. A politician only needs to be able to manage his connections and relationships well. It doesn't take a genius to do that.
