I've been thinking. What do todays world leaders and Nazis have in common? They both love power and control and wealth. So, what if some of the, "good guys," decided to adopt some of the Nazi's techniques to bolster their own power, and apply them a bit less overt way?
He probably was.
Or, maybe they have snuck back into power over the years.
Or, maybe ideology is just a red herring to hide a criminal cabal that is nothing more nor nothing less than a bunch of corrupt crooks who sit at the top.
