Law is Nothing But a ...
Hitler had a certain individual from the SA shot during the "Putsch" (or in the context of the purge). At the time, this was not treated as a crime, but from a legal standpoint, how should one view it?
This also helps explain why Churchill—who stated, "I am anti-communist, but the excesses of the Nazis are intolerable"—chose to join forces with the Soviet Union.
Could you shed some light on this?
(I should clarify that there is absolutely nothing about Hitler that I would consider positive.)
What is striking about Hitler is his belief that—regardless of the logic used, even if it were a forced or contrived justification—he could get away with anything as long as he could frame it as "legitimate." It is as if he were the living embodiment of the concept that.
I have heard that military officers who spoke with him were astonished by his deep knowledge of military affairs, and even Dr. Goebbels reportedly felt outmatched by him. I have also heard that Hitler was an avid reader—is that true?
