  1. Diana's commentary on how interesting Hitler was, shows a British aristocrats' complete abstraction of suffering and brutality. It's "interesting?" Slaughtering 8 million people is interesting? Hitler's an interesting monster? It's really revolting how far away from humanity she is and therefore I cannot have anything but disgust. She got married at Goebel's place and Hitler was at her wedding? Stupid, uneducated, and empty-headed is all I can think when I hear this. OK, she was pretty. But pretty and heartless. I cannot relate to such callousness. Did they really think they were making the world better?

  2. Diana and Unity were crushing on Hitler like he was a rock star. "Fascinated" the way the Manson family felt about Charles Manson. It is not admirable, but shows empty souls looking for adventure and a leader who will take them "there."

    Eva Braun also committed suicide, so Hitler has a great track record with the women. Eventually they had to see how deranged he was and that they went along with it.

  4. Both teen age sisters had an affinity for serial killers. The only difference between Lenin and Hitler was the numbers of deaths each was responsible for and that while Lenin killed his own countrymen, Hitler killed his own people as well as other countries’ people.

    Lenin was responsible for the deaths of over 8 million citizens of the Russian Empire, many by starvation, torture, or summary execution. Hitler was responsible for 75 million deaths many by heinous means.

    NOTES:
    Hitler told Himmler that it was not enough for the Jews simply to die; they must die in agony. What was the best way to prolong their agony? Himmler turned the problem over to his advisers, who concluded that a slow, agonizing death could be brought about by placing Jewish prisoners in freight cars in which the floors were coated with…quicklime…which produced excruciating burns. The advisers estimated that it would take four days for them to die…it was decided that should be used in addition to the extermination camps.
    —-Robert Payne, The Life and Death of Adolf Hitler

    By genocide, the murder of hostages, forced labor, "euthanasia," starvation, exposure, medical experiments, and terror bombing, and in the concentration and death camps, the Nazis coldly murdered an estimated 20,946,000 men, women, handicapped, aged, sick, prisoners of war, forced laborers, camp inmates, critics, homosexuals, Jews, Slavs, Serbs, Germans, Czechs, Italians, Poles, French, Ukrainians, and many others. Among them 1,000,000 were children under eighteen years of age.
