Hitler

[Furious Mental]

That assumes that Hitler conceived of "the greater good" in the same way as the rest of us, which, if I may be so presumptuous, would be the betterment of all mankind by an objective and universal standard. Hitler completely rejected such a concept- humanism and universal values were foreign to him. The only good that mattered was the good of his nation, and by definition this was also the detriment of other nations, because his view of history required his nation to expand continuously and engage in wars for their own sake in order to survive.

Well he didn't believe in that he believed in the aryan race that was good for him. If I could ever qualify is really evil it would be King Leoplod II, he did it all for himselve. The greatest forgotten crime in history and one heck of a book;

Look brothers, are we going to take any crappy Web article seriously?

For example: the Madagascar plan was Himmler's idea, not Hitler's. Himmler presented it in May 1940 as an alternative, since the 'Bolshewist method of physical annihilation' was still deemed 'ungermanisch' (un-Germanic) in leading nazi circles. The decision to exterminate Jews was almost certainly taken in 1941, and it was almost certainly imposed by Hitler himself. In the Spring of 1941 Himmler told Htiler's personal physician Felix Kersten that the total innihilation of Jewry had been ordered by the leader: "Das ist der eindeutige Befehl des Führers.“

Need I go on?

Huh. Given that how they go, nevermind why they're fought in the first place, is usually largely politics...

Poltics r 4 the edumacated and teh inlectuuls (spiling?), ppl hu reed buks and so on.

But serially, politics can be pretty boring and sometimes I just want to make them illegal. In the good old times at least the normal soldiers might get a chance to smack the politicians on the battlefield for their political failures.
