   Adolf Hitler was at his basics a Socialist. He was very much mentally ill and should never have had gained power.

   He promised them the world. The sheep of Germany followed and got just that.

   When you use the word “greatest”…I usually associate that with beneficial to society…hardly….infamous would be a better word

   he certainly was an effective leader. see any videos of his speeches and see how passioned he was. he persuaded all of those people that what they were doing was right. not anyone can do that.

   as for what he was leading them to do, well that was horrible.

   if we could get a man like hitler to rally against a just cause, then we’d have something special.

   and as far as germans being “sheepish” americans are just as sheepish. see milgram’s experiment on the conditions for obedience to authority.

   Is is very clear that he was a very insecure individual. This i can say because they way he always seeked perfection in everything. He was unrealistic because he lived in a dreamworld. For example, he visualized a German to be tall, smart and with blue eyes. Whereas he himself was short, well lets just say he was not attractive. Besides, he didn’t have the guts to face his consequences and he took his own life. That explains he was weak in nature and weak in his decisions. He lived for nothing and died for nothing.

   Absolutely NOT! He was a mass MURDERER…he ordered his military to kill 6 million Jewish people!!!!! He committed suicide, because he could not handle being defeated! He actually believed that he was going to create his own world full of all white people, particularly, blonde, blue eyed people!

    He does not deserve the right to go into details.

    To answer your question only. If you are a Nazi skin head, then of course you think that he was the greatest. If you are a human being, then you know for a fact that any animal is greater by comparison.

    No but this guy actually achieved some things which he should be credited for. He presence on the scen definetely, altered history. Actually he also did some good things for Germany in the beginning of his regime. That he slowly became crazy & psychotic with time is a different matter.

    Yes, of course Hitler was one of the greatest men to live. Not only did he bring a struggling nation back from the brink, we still today talk about him. Hell we have the Hitler “History” channel that is almost 24/7 Hitler. You ask yourself, which is better to be famous or infamous. I say infamous. Where’s the Mother Teresa channel?

    Now before you all start calling be a skin head, I have a flowing pony tail and quite liberal in my views.

    I read Mein Kamp, it was brilliant, and a lot of what he was saying was true for the time. Hell he became the leader of a great nation. You don’t do that being a nut case. Don’t see the uni-bomber in charge in this nation.

    Don’t confuse the results of WWII with Hitler’s capability. He was brilliant, a true leader, inspirational, etc. He also surrounded himself with people with many addenda’s. Most I don’t agree with. Hell I am a Native American I would be going straight to the gas chamber.

    Hitler was a one of the greatest if not THE GREATEST!
