......this is interesting because during the first war Herr Hitler was a front line soldier that won the Iron Cross first class - rare for a Corporal. Still no evidence that he actually killed anyone. However, there is speculation that Hitler may have killed his own niece post World War 1. Hitler seemed to have a mesmeric personality over the German masses and yes he did get others to do his bidding. In contrast, Nelson Mandela was a very well educated and well read man while Hitler was semi educated. To me Hitler ran a death cult responsible for the deaths of tens of millions. In contrast, it could be that - in the end - Nelson Mandela helped to save the lives of millions and for all his dodgy past he seemed to love life unlike Hitler.
