In regard to Human behavior, to claim that the actions of Hitler without the inclusion of the holocaust just doesn't make any sense to me. You see, Adolf Hitler and his supporters were responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people.
Believe it or not, the deaths of the Jewish people were a small percentage of the total number of people who were killed by that monster. Yes, death camps were not the only places where innocent people were killed or simply ignored and allowed to starve to death. Tens of millions of people suffered and/or died as a result of the combat that took place in Europe, Africa and the South Pacific region of the of the World.
In France, Poland and the other 13, so called, over run Countries millions of people were simply shot, most of whom were politicians, teachers, old people and the insane within each of those Countries. I wonder why someone did not simply shoot Hitler before things got as bad as they did? Well, it seems that the richest people within Germany supported a person who they believed would make them even richer.
I also wonder, why didn't someone simply shoot Alexander, Napoleon and Stalin? Yes, including Hitler and Caesar, they all wanted to rule the entire World. In our schools, how can such a subject be over-emphasized? To this day, there is no accurate count of all of the people who were injured or killed during World War II.
At the same time, how could the slaughter of innocent Jewish people be under-emphasized? That is possible if that horrible event is excluded from the history lesson. Then again, that event is in the history books as part of the actions of the Nazis. Those who do not believe that fact better go back to school, or to a school that provides more than a sixth grade level education. When the freedom of speech includes the distortion of historic facts something is clearly wrong somewhere.
So too, Napoleon is still regarded as a Hero in France. Then again, without the help of the French people, in their quest for World domination, Napoleon would be long forgotten. Plenty of those French people wanted to become rich too and they expected Napoleon to get it for them.
You see, you simply cannot blame one person for all of the killing. Those who supported those Monsters should themselves be shot for all of the pain, grief, suffering and deaths they caused for the sake of World domination, power and greed.
Well, that is too bad for those killed or injured losers to such evil dictators, but the World is not an ideal place and bad things happen to each and every one of us during some time within our life.
