And on the topic of Hitler, I'm well read in the history of WWI and WWII and spend more time on message boards for that than even here!
.. recall he convinced his generals and the Wehrmact who were initially very distrusting that his only goal was to return to Germany it's rightful lands (Prussia was a soft sport for many of them) and a return to it's glorious status of pre-WWI. with the loss of Prussia, the Sudaten Lands and parts of their French borders as his sole objectives they set off to attack Poland which then lead to the declalration of war by the French and by extension the British.
But he duped his people and his military and only a small handful of inner circle Nazi's knew of his plans for the Jews and his plan to eventually invade Russia.. Except now it's us being duped with information about Iraqi involvement in 9/11 and other misinformation.. Substitute the desire to kill all the Jews with the desire to make Oil even more profitable, and take control (thru puppet governments in the region) of that oil... Thru a war of aggression.. we weren't invited into Iraq by their internationally recognized government, were we? Nor did we have the concurrence of the world community or the UN Security council.
Similarly with Hitler is the rhetoric of GW Bush, which is mostly nationalist and mostly about what's in the interest of the "American" people the rest of the world be damned! There are a lot of serious scholars who compare the two, so don't tune out too fast!
