Was Hitler an insane madman?

What ever situation Hitler found him self in world war two the more ridical the solution that was the route chosen by Hitler even if it went against the strategic plan or Military necessity.

1. The battle of Britain last week of August - first week of September the Luftwaffer had been bombing 11th Groups airfields mercilessly.
Raf Fighter Command was on its knees then the Germans sent a night raid to the shorts factory on the outskirts of London the wind had blown the bombers off course and anti aircraft guns opened up the German Bombers ditched their bombs on the out skirts of London and flew back to France Herman Goring had said earlier that if a bomb fell on Berlin you can call me Mier "Mud" or Mier being a common german name akin to smith in England sure enough RAF Bomber Command Bombed Berlin a couple of nights later Aldolf Hitler was in a right state chewing carpets so to speak and on Berlin Radio he said this to the German Nation if the English Luftwaffer drop 300 - 400 - 500 kgs of bombs on German cities then we will drop 3000 - 4000 - 5000 kgs of bombs on England and wipe out your cities.
So on 7th September German Bombers head for England all 11th Groups fighters are up guarding airfields then as the German Bombers cross the Coast they turn north west heading for London.
London burned the east end was ablaze later that night another raid of 250 bombers came in guided by the orange after glow of burning London.
but after the London raids there was a week of bad weather low cloud ect the Germans thought the RAF had been shot out of the sky.
But turning on London was the Germans bigest blunder at the time in the war.
Now Leigh Mallorys 12th Group fighters were now close enough to help 11th Group leigh Mallory's so called "BIG WING" also the German Bombers would lose most of their protection German fighters could only stay for ten minuets over London the German Bombers had further to go and to go back.


On the 15th September thats now known as Battle of Britain Day the Luftwaffer lost 56 Aircraft and that was the first defeat inflicted on the all conquering Germans in world war II.






2.After D-Day in June 1944 instead of launching the V1's at the bridge-head Hitler demanded that they be used as a terror weapon against London and not fired at the marshalling yards just off the Normandy beaches and taking a sleeping pil on the 5th June and denying the panzer divisions freedom of command they could only move to the coast with the Furhers permision by the time he had woken up on the afternoon of the 6th of june it was too late the allies had a foot hold in France.

Question is moot, Hitler has been dead for 76 years.

So theres been three generations that have grown up since the end of WWII not worrying about the curse of fascizm and lifting it from the brow of men.
Thats so 20th century whats the point in looking backwards the past is the past and best forgotten.
Until history repeats its self and once again the young men and women of the world have to die due to the actions of one mans mad idea of leaving a legacy of rebuilding a new eastern empire a wall of red and when that plan fails just like Hitlers Grand Plan if we can not conquer I Putin will lay waste to Ukraine and drag the world into the abyss too.
