  1. I love the contradictions in Hitler's writings. He admits that Britain has been working to prevent one European power from gaining control over Europe. But, wasn't that what Hitler was trying to do? So, based on the first statement, why wouldn't Britain go to war to stop Germany from conquering or controlling all of Europe? And wouldn't taking over all of Europe be making Germany a world power? This is one of the reasons Britain fought Napoleon - trying to prevent the creation of an European-wide French nation state.

  2. There was a wonderful cartoon showing how Germany already had a wartime economy by the late 1930s. I cannot remember the exact year (might have been 1938), but the poster had a cartoon panel with a graph showing "Guns versus Butter", with guns increasing and butter decreasing, forming a swastika shape. Germany did have a wartime economy by 1935, based on military construction. But it was definitely poorly run.

  3. People have an amazing ability to blind themselves to the fallacies of their own ideas. A good example of this is Karl Marx. Anyone with a proper understanding of both history and human nature would have realized how stupid Marxism (and Communism) really were.
