Adolf HilterJoin now to read essay Adolf HilterWhen the topic of dictators is brought up who comes to mind? Most anyone will say Adolf Hitler. Why was he so cruel? What drove his hatred for the Jews? Why did he want a so-called “perfect” race? Well the answer to all these questions might be answered from Hitler’s childhood. Adolph Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, in Braunau am Inn, Austria. He was the son of Alois, a customs official, and Klara Hitler. Alois was a very mean and stern father. His death, in 1903, came as a
relief to Adolf. His relationship with his mother was totally opposite than his relationship with his father, Adolf idealized his mother so when she died in 1907 it was a very traumatic experience to him. This led to many problems, especially school.
While living in Vienna, Hitler made his living by drawing small pictures of famous landmarks, which he sold as post cards. But he was always poor. He was also a regular reader of a small paper, which claimed that the Arabian race was superior to all and was destined to rule the world. The paper blamed Communists and Jews for all their problems and Hitler agreed to those views. Hitler agreed with most of the points made in the publication. He continued to live a poor life in Vienna and in 1913 decided to move to Munich. Still living in Vienna and being Austrian by birth, Hitler showed more loyalty to the country of Germany. He thought that the Aryan race was destined to rule the world. Many believe that he tried to escape the draft but it was never proven. His life in Munich was not much better then before and he continued to be poor. Then in 1914 World War I broke out and Hitler saw this as a great opportunity to show his loyalty to the “fatherland” by volunteering for the Imperial army. He did not want to fight in the Austrian Army. Hitler was a good soldier. Many of his political opponents claimed that he was a coward but records clearly show that he was not. He received two awards of bravery but never achieved a high rank.
In 1918 Germany surrendered and Hitler was very upset about the loss. He believed that it was the Jews and the Communists who betrayed the “fatherland” and it was here that his disliking of the Jews most likely began. Germany, after the war, was in chaos. With no real Government to control the country, mangroups tried to take control. One day a big communist group staged a big riot but another group of ex-soldiers, including Hitler, managed to hold them back. Hitler’s political rise starts to take off in the year of 1919.
Since there were not many chances for employment Hitler stayed in the army. Hitler was assigned the job of going to various meetings of groups, which came up frequently, and to report on them. One day on September 12, 1919 – a fateful day in history, Hitler was sent to investigate a small group, which called itself the “German Workers Party”. Hitler was not too happy about his assignment. He thought it wouldnt be worth it to even go. At the group they mainly talked about the Countries problem and how the Jews, communists, and others where threatening the master race and offered their own solutions. Hitler was bored by the meeting but when a man stood up and claimed that Bavaria should separate from Germany, Hitler got up and argued that point. He argued that Germany and Germans must unite into one to survive. His natural ability to speak impressed the leader of the group and at the end of the meeting he gave Hitler a pamphlet and an initiation the next meeting. He wasnt interested in attending but after reading the hand out he accepted. He later joined the German Workers Party and was in charge of propaganda. The party was small at first but Hitlers great skill at deliberating speeches attracted more and more listeners and it soon became a major party with many followers. Eventually Adolf Hitler became its leader and the rest as they say is history, as the Nazi Party had come to the forefront of Germany.
While spending time in prison for trying to overthrow the government Adolf Hitler wrote his famous book “Mein Kampf”, in which he describes many problems and where he states that the Jews and communists were responsible for those problems. He also decided on the “Final Solution” to the “Jewish Question”. It was his goal to eliminate the Jewish race from the European continent. It is interesting to look and see how a small time boy from Austria with no education, money or political background could become within a few years the leader of a big nation such as Germany. Historians believe that Hitler saw a great opportunity to get his views across to the German people who had lost all hope. Of course people did not start to support him right away. After he came into power, the Nazi party took control over every aspect of every day life. Hitler ordered the creation of a special police force to make sure that all opponents would
The Nazis in the 1930s
A few other Nazi leaders (and even today) held different viewpoints on how to end the war.
Wernher von Braun (1914-1975), the “Father of Adolf Hitler”
For over 50 years, Wernher von Braun received his training from Thessaloniki, which was the German government’s largest military facility. He trained extensively in military tactics, and was well aware of his duties as a military commander. During the 1940s, during the Great Patriotic War that had begun years earlier, Hitler and fellow war criminals sent tanks and other military equipment to many German towns on the basis of plans to invade Russia in order to destroy Europe. However, Hitler never ordered the use of military power against the occupied population in the War of the States.
Klaus von Mises’s Theory of State (1945)
Hitler’s famous book,
The Theory of State has inspired a wide range of arguments, from Austrian nationalism, to the claim that democracy is based on the power to choose its leaders. The theory is based on the idea that citizens have a fundamental claim to political power, a fundamental claim to control the world as a whole and thus to control the state. It emphasizes state sovereignty and sovereignty by giving citizens a fundamental right to decide for themselves what their government should do. It emphasizes the “right of self-government” which is fundamental to their country and has no place in totalitarian systems. In 1938, Adolf Hitler’s Theocracy was published.
Thomas Jefferson (1816-1904)
Jurisdiction was given to a man by the United States of America. After Jefferson died in 1818, his political philosophy was changed significantly by the war in World War 2. Jefferson was the founder of the Democratic party and the second president of the American Federation of Teachers. He left his post at 1836 to become vice president of the US. Jefferson became the first president of the Libertarian Party in 1901, and a member of the Continental Congress from 1901-1807. Jefferson was the greatest American economist at the turn of the twentieth century and founded the National Association of Banksters in 1809. In 1913, he was re-elected to the U.S. Senate. In 1933, he became the first U.S. senator to hold one term in the U.S. House of Representatives. In 1948, after having been elected to the U.S. Senate, he became a Senatorial candidate. According to his biography, Jefferson’s views were strongly influenced by Milton Friedman, who was then the father of the American monetary system and a proponent of the Federal Reserve System. He also supported the Great Repeal Act of 1932, which would prohibit the Federal Reserve from holding US debts and from setting aside US equity. Jefferson became the fourth President of the United States.
Alexander Hamilton
In 1854, President Jefferson sent one of his advisers a letter to US Trade Representative Joseph Fielding Smith. This person, who was then the Vice Senatorial nominee for Pennsylvania, said, “We cannot meet our obligations under the present system by refusing such a meeting before proceeding.” In May, 1854, the following year, President Jefferson said, “In my humble opinion, no other president may meet the same obligation as me. But with regard to these matters, Congress will never pass legislation which prevents an orderly and complete solution of the issue which I have heretofore stated in my letter. It is time to withdraw it.
This time, Congress will act to prevent the United States from meeting its obligations under the present system by withholding payment of debt and providing for the abolition of money, not only in banking transactions but most of all in the public services in
