By the late 30s, a dozen countries in Eastern Europe had been taken over by the soviets. Communism was violently spreading throughout Europe. Germany would have been next. National Socialism was nothing more than a response to Communism. Even General Patton knew we had engaged the wrong enemy during WW2. Enough with the bullshit about Germany wanting to conquer the world. That is total propaganda from the marxist history books. It's really simple, just listen to Hitler's speeches. All Germany wanted was to regain the land that had been stolen from them following WW1 and to stop the spread of Communism. Do I like Hitler? Fuck no, he was a statist. But he has been falsely vilified to an extent that almost hard to believe.
