This coming from the U.K. Guardian? The most left-leaning newspaper not published in Pyongyang? Not wanting to kill Hitler but Stalin? Uh oh, their Kommissars are going to be VERRRRRY angry!

Who takes over Germany if Hitler is assassinated? I suspect there would have been tremendous infighting between Himmler, Goebbels and Goering, none really trusted the other.

One could argue that Hitler was one of the biggest advantages to the Allies in WW2. Had someone else ran Nazi Germany, the outcome could have been different.

Go too far back in time and who knows what would happen.
Could be unrecognizable - good or bad.

Killing Hitler(or Stalin) would have changed the world in very significant ways that would alter our circumstances even today.

In 30 years of time travel The Doctor never attempted to take out Hitler. Must be some reason why.

It might be worse if Reinhard Heydrich took over.

Maybe a time traveller killed a different young German leader, making it possible for the world to get Hitler instead

Without Hitler the left would not have made as much progress in the west over the intervening years, as they successfully (and very unfairly) associated Nazism with the right.

I would insert Barack Hussein Obama into a normal, two parent family.

“This coming from the U.K. Guardian? The most left-leaning newspaper not published in Pyongyang? “

Also hands down, the most anti-American. Try reading the 2 years worth since the 2003 Iraq invasion and occupation and they make the NYT look like Dick Cheney’s newsletter..

Why couldn’t they arrange for Hitler to get a scholarship to culinary school, instead of killing him.
