Hitler assumed power in 1933.

The bottom picture is Hitler youth.

And like Hitler, Goering fancied himself a collector of art.

Hitler had two of them, and he didn't have any.

So, why is Stalin seen as relatively more acceptable than Hitler?

People say, No, that's Nazi Germany, that's Hitler, you know, that's 1939.

You send in a picture of your cat if it looks like Hitler.

Hitler knew it he used Wagner to make all the Nazis feel wonderful and Aryan.

The Germany of Klaus von Stauffenberg, not Hitler, was the Germany that Pius XII loved.

One of them is Martin Luther King's I Have A Dream, and the other one is Hitler.

Keynes s Cambridge disciple, Joan Robinson, was particularly worried because Hitler seemed to have grasped this point more quickly than democratic governments had. Hitler, she noted sarcastically, had solved Germany s problem by painting the Black Forest white and putting down linoleum in the Polish Corridor.

When Stalin offered Hitler his friendship in the spring of 1939 formally concluded that summer in the Molotov Ribbentrop Pact Nazi aggression was assured of not being knifed in the back from the East and so was left with free hands to do as Hitler pleased in the West.

John Bolton, the former United States Ambassador to the United Nations, said in April that if the choice is Iran continuing towards a nuclear bomb or the use of force, I think you re at a Hitler marching into the Rhineland point. Bush, too, has compared Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Hitler.

Indeed, papal diplomats not only knew about the plot against Hitler, but sought to mediate between the conspirators and the Allied Powers.

We pay tribute to the huge role played by all the States of the anti Hitler coalition in the defeat of fascism.

That great victory of 1945 was forged by all the constituent Soviet republics, Russia and the other countries of the anti Hitler coalition.

Nevertheless, it's an undeniable fact that to own up to being an atheist is tantamount to introducing yourself as Mr. Hitler or Miss Beelzebub.

If you ever doubt the power of graphic design, this is a very generic sign that literally says, Vote for Hitler. It says nothing else.

PRINCETON Hitler and Stalin were ruthless dictators who committed murder on a vast scale. But, while it is impossible to imagine a Hitler statue in Berlin, or anywhere else in Germany, statues of Stalin have been restored in towns across Georgia (his birthplace), and another is to be erected in Moscow as part of a commemoration of all Soviet leaders.

The Pact came after the pogroms of Kristallnacht in Germany, so its Soviet initiators knew pretty well to what destiny they were consigning the Jews of Poland and Lithuania, which, in accord with the first secret Protocol signed by Ribbentrop and Molotov on August 23, 1939, were to go to Hitler. A month later, in equal secrecy, Hitler sold Lithuania to Stalin.

In 1938, German officers were ready to stage a coup d état against Hitler, if only the West had resisted him and backed the Czechoslovaks at Munich.

This guy had met Hitler and Gandhi within six months, and every time I'd ask him about it, he'd say, Oh, I just happened to be there.

And most people change their preference when I tell them that the one on the left is Hitler and the one on the right is Martin Luther King.

That scheme is both absurd and dangerous. After all, the word Weimar draws its infamy from the pact with the devil that German conservatives and royalists made by backing Hitler.

French insistence on harsh reparations payments after World War I clearly prepared the ground for the rise of Hitler. The rise of Greece s neo fascist Golden Dawn is a similar phenomenon.

The weapons inspectors were pulled out, and America opted for preemptive war. Bush was portrayed as facing down a new Hitler with Churchillian resolve, and advocates of containment were accused of appeasement.

The desire to save humanity from the scourge of war inspired the countries of the anti Hitler coalition to create a reliable mechanism to maintain international peace and security the United Nations.

Whether by a Hitler salute or a hand on your heart, I consider the expression of patriotism to be the symptoms of a disease, whose cause and cure should be more closely studied.

Even then, we know from history that it takes but one Enabling Law to unhinge the rule of law and replace it by an ideological tyranny, as happened when Hitler came to power in Germany.

The word stagnation suggests a swamp, implying a breeding ground for virulent dangers. In the late 1930s, people were also worrying about discontent in Europe, which had already powered the rise of Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

Monnet was a born technocrat, who hated political conflict and almost made a fetish of unity. (In 1940, when Hitler seemed indomitable, Monnet suggested to Winston Churchill that France and Britain might be rolled into one country.)

See also Richard Falk, The Iran Hostage Crisis Easy Answers and Hard Questions, 74 American Journal of International Law 411 (1980) (noting that e ven Hitler, it is alleged, never violated the diplomatic immunity of his enemies.

As politicians in the West compare him to Mugabe or Mussolini, Putin s Kremlin aides invoke the Munich appeasers who tried to push Hitler eastward. Putin himself once blamed the West for trying to channel Muslim radicalism toward Russia.

Adolf Hitler used the principle to undermine fragile states in the 1930 s. Today, with less than 10 of the world s states being homogeneous, treating self determination as a primary moral principle could have disastrous consequences in many regions.

In the 1930s, economic stagnation and depression led to the rise of Hitler in Germany, Mussolini in Italy, and Franco in Spain (among other authoritarians). Today s brand of illiberal leaders may not yet be as politically virulent as their 1930s predecessors.

Kaiser Wilhelm II invaded neutral Belgium to start WWI. Hitler swallowed Austria and Czechoslovakia when it suited him but Austria's neutrality after 1955 was enough to satisfy the Cold War's two blocs, and now it is part of the EU.

But these so called statesmen never consider what might have happened had Germany and Britain both had nuclear weapons in 1939. Would Hitler, wicked as he was, have gone to war had he faced an assured threat of total destruction?

This was exactly the vision held by the German patriots who participated in the conspiracy to assassinate Hitler on July 20, 1944. Most of them paid with their lives, and are now honored in the West for their courage and principles.

They maintain that, as the minority of the Supreme Court found, anyone with a basic knowledge of Hitler and National Socialism would have understood Mr. Sjolie's speech as an acceptance and approval of mass violence against Jews in the Nazi era.

He then refers not only to Rudolf Hess, in commemoration of whom the speech was made, but also to Adolf Hitler and their principles, stating that his group will follow in their footsteps and fight for what (we) believe in .

The Committee considers these statements to contain ideas based on racial superiority or hatred the deference to Hitler and his principles and footsteps must, in the Committee's view, be taken as incitement at least to racial discrimination, if not to violence.

He said, Yeah, but suppose Hitler asked you, 'Would you electrocute a stranger?' 'No way, not me, I'm a good person.' He said, Why don't we put you in a situation and give you a chance to see what you would do?

Stylized historical analogies often play a similar role. For example, international relations scholars use the famous meeting between Neville Chamberlain and Adolf Hitler in Munich in 1938 as a model of how appeasing a power bent on expansionism can be futile (or dangerous).

It remains true that Stalin led his country to victory in war, and to a position of global power that it had not held before and from which it has since fallen. Hitler, by contrast, left his country shattered, occupied, and divided.

People identify with their country and look up to those who led it when it was at its most powerful. That may explain why Muscovites are more willing to accept a statue of Stalin than Berliners would be to have one of Hitler.
