Germans are more interested in Adolf Hitler that at any time since the end of the Second World War, a new study has concluded.
The German Media Control research group, which monitors broadcasting, found that documentaries about Hitler are aired twice a day on German television channels and that books and films about the Nazi leader are being produced in record numbers.
It established that 242 programs dealing specifically with Hitler had been shown on television during the first four months of 2013, while 500 other films and documentaries that had dealt with the Nazi era in general had also been aired.
Some 2,000 books on Hitler were published in Germany last year.

So would we but my browsing of the cable TV offerings seem to match pretty much what they are seeing in Germany. However, the parallels between today's events and those of the 1930's are striking.

Human nature to be fascinated by this Svengali. How did a mere mortal convince so many to commit such atrocities without conscience? What is the tipping point?

Didn’t know they’d been to the moon, normally you hear about some sort of inner earth arctic base.

Why are people so fascinated by Hitler’s murderous behavior when in reality he is but a boy scout when compared to Stalin’s brutal 35-year rule in the Soviet Union and occupied parts of Europe?

The banking oligarchs financed Hitler’s rise, but when he instituted a values based currency to the Reich he became their enemy. The same oligarchs financed Stalin. In Hitler’s case the Bush family banking wing was instrumental.

Didn’t they launch from a base in Antarctica? I’ve heard too from the internets that they’ve just been gathering strength under the ice there for the last 70 years.

242 programs dealing specifically with HitlerHow many of them are Youtube videos like "Hitler Finds Out..."?

With the current emphasizing of homosexualism it’s only natural that Hitler would be of interest.

That would be my assumption. How was it possible that the German people could surrender to that obscure little Austrian and is it possible to recognize the problem pattern in advance so it be dealt with before it becomes unmanageable.

I was always interested in the question of how a Republic could all of a sudden become a dictatorship. I still don’t get what the Germans liked so much about Hitler.
Maybe it’s because I don’t speak German, but I just don’t understand how anyone could have voted to give him any sort of power whatsoever.
