#8 This is inevitable. In the years following the defeat of Napoleon, he was the ultimate evil for many people throughout Europe. He is the second most biographied person ever, after Jesus.

However, today, he is just seen as another royal from the days of the royals. In France he has been rehabilitated into a national hero.

The same thing will happen in Germany, and probably faster, because of the refusal to teach anything about Hitler or WWII. Once that generation has died off, objectivity will win out and very little that Hitler did will stand out as unique in the 20th Century, the century of industrial war.

#9 I couldn't disagree more. All the Brits are in bed, but I doubt they look upon him as a royal amongst royals.

Hitler will not see the same resuscitation in his reputation for two reasons.

It is in the interest of the left to keep Hitler at the top of the evil heap in order to hide what was done by their heroes, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pot, and the Kim boys.

In the event that the left loses control of the chattering classes, Hitler will still be execrable because he is the sole, let us hope, leader who turned the technology and culture of what had been a modern civilized industrial nation to the extermination of millions of humans only because of who their parents were. What Stalin did may have more zeros behind it, but that is its primary difference from the past in Russia. It stands as an example of what any developed country could become in the right circumstances.

F&ck almighty, you're probably right, NS. What a revolting concept.
