    Not sure if it was ever confirmed, but I always heard multiple countries could have easily killed Hitler, it’s just that he was a very very shitty military commander, and the nazis would have been better off without him.

    He would overrule his incredibly intelligent generals and make stupid emotional decisions, without him the war would have stretched on much longer.

    The war didn’t end cuz Hitler shot himself, he shot himself because the war ended. People get that mixed up.

      Well duh, you need to shoot him BEFORE he can start a world war. Ideally before he comes into power, but I guess that ship has sailed.

        That’s why Andrew-Bidlaw Inc. provides you with pregnancy tests having a separate window to show a hitler-test results and a pack of late abortion pills to drop him out in 1-2 days.
