What if we had stood united with Hitler against Russia......

Yes, this bit puzzles me in this 'what if' scenario.

It's likely that would happen but for some reason I am not so sure.

Hitler started his journey into madness out of sheer personal frustration. Remember the dude wanted to enter art school and felt miserable about the WW1 defeat.

Had he felt he was a succesful human being and Germany a leading proud country, his mental state and views might have changed for the better or at least made him seek different arrangements for the Jews, like move them to a remote inhospitable part of Europe or otherwise out of core-Germany possibly under strict rules. Not nice by any means, but beats a holocaust any day.

So yes, the fate of the Jews is the weakest part of the chain in this alternative history. It's thin line between hero (*) or zero.

Alexander, Caesar, Napoleon are generally admired for their achievements.
