Germany is a monstrous splatter of overfed pigeon crap on the windshield of history.
I take it you don’t own a car.
And have never read a book (the printing press...). But that’s probably a given...
Hitler or someone like him was inevitable given the horrific conditions of the Weimar Republic, an economic atrocity engineered at the insistence of the French at Versailles.
Going back over Franco-German relations prior to WWI, I decided they deserved each other, much as the Troubles between Ireland and England. There were no good guys.
The French deserved the German occupation, and have never forgiven the US for liberating them.
