Thats an interesting point. I put it down to the Nazi party coming to power during a great German depression, and seeing the country get back up on its feet again after alot of people had lost hope.
That kind of thing can make firm (yet naiive) believers out of people. Alot of people, when asked what they thought of Hitler, instantly jump to the Holocaust and World War 2, without paying consideration to events prior to that.
I'm not defending what Hitler did, or even suggesting he was a great man. I'm saying that its important to understand how people could have begun following him, and continued to follow him throughout the Holocaust and the war.
