Default About Adolf Hitler

Before I get kicked off this site, I decided to throw all my money in..
Just like to point out that "Hitler" had a name. He was Adolf Hitler, born April the 20th 1889. Just like anyone else. He was also a family member to some. What annoys me the most is how you rubbish "Hitler" and yet song and dance about even more 'evil' countries like China and Russia who executed more
Chinese executed over 40,000,000
Russia executed over 20, 000,000

This was before WW2 remember, them the facts!!!

i can remember back to 1999 when me and my stepfather was in bosnia there were some terrible sights and i mean terrible

we passed through this little village not far from banja luka and there wasnt a building left standing over 3,000 people used to live in that village untill the serb tanks rolled right through it they estimated only 23 got away that sort of masacre is totaly wrong

i visited some very dire places including macedonia serbia latvia estonia bosnia ect most are decent places its just some parts i know in latvia the bomb squad is called out nearly three times a day every day but the situation in most of the ex soviet republics is starting to improve little by little and its going to be a long time before any major improvment is seen

I third that.

And, more importantly, how does that make Adolf look any better?

Default Adolf Hitler

I fifth that, and more important, CCIP went back on topic with the remark how that made Adolf Hitler any better.

I really don't understand Damo1977.
Recently he managed to get two threads closed in as many days.
Then he is making a funny/weird attempt to save his skin by starting a poll whether or not he should be allowed to stay.
Now

he obviously doesn't see a future on this site for himself.
And after reading the 'content' of his posting

, a weird 'protest' against 'us' unfairly rubbishing poor Adolf, I fully agree with Damo1977.
He has no future here and really should leave...

Adolf H. also tried a career attempt as an artist before he made the decision to become evil dictator.

Anyone had read the the book "kiss kiss" by Roald Dahl?
It contains some nice short stories, and one is about the dramatic and difficult birth of a baby.
The story is called "genesis and catastrophe"
Someone here knows this story?

Concerning Hitler's art.....I wish I could go back to the Vienna Academy of Art and tell them.....


"You really should accept this student! Doing this will prevent the slaughter of millions, let alone te annexation of your country."

I wonder if any of the faculty were still around once Hitler took power, and if Hitler did anything about them...


Well, perhaps he still would have gone down his destructive path, but I'm in the arts, and my bet is that, if he would been given just a sliver of success, he may have been able to satisfy his needs through his art....I mean, there have certainly been plenty examples of those who are in the creative arts (Richard Wagner just to name one) who had very outspoken opinions, but were not personally responsible for the death of millions....
