Some still paint the clash between Hitler and Ernst Röhm as a clash between two distinct ideologies, whereas the reality is far more intriguing. So this video provides evidence for the reason Adolf Hitler initiated the Night of the Long Knives in 1934.

Roehm was chief of SA brown shirts which posed a threat to Hitler’s power as well as a threat to the Wehrmacht. Hitler obviously sided with the army, rid himself of a dangerous rival and gained the support of the Army.
Ideology had little to do with it. It was a power play.
It was strictly business.
There are early NDSAP badges that incorporated the hammer and sickle, but these were scrapped later on.

But he remained a Marxist.
Mussolini was a Communist too. He edited the Italian Communist newspaper.
(BTW, Mussolini’s boys were the Blackshirts. Is there a group out there today that is violent and dresses all in black?)
Yes, Adolf was trying to clean up his image.
An exhaustive and well-regarded medical study identified the first symptoms of Parkinson’s in Hitler in newsreels as early as 1941, with his tremor aggravated by the July 20 assassination attempt. Of course, the cause of Hitler’s Parkinson’s is unlikely to ever be known to a reasonable certainty due to the limitations of the historical record. Along with heart disease though, Parkinson’s seems to have contributed to Hitler’s aggressive war plans born of a sense that time was running out for him medically.
Hitler’s combat record ought to have given him promotions to greater responsibility even if his rank as corporal had remained the same. Supposedly, the deciding factor against promotion for Hitler was that he was not fully respected or trusted by the officers due to supposed homosexual tendencies and conduct in the trenches.
“Hitler was originally a communist, then a democrat socialist,”
I remember reading breathless news reports that Hitler was in the Communist party as if it was some shocking revelation. That was his job for the army after the war, spying on the radical parties. Of course, he would join them. Then he was sent to check this little group in a beer cellar, and the rest is history as they say.
His infatuation with communism and then social democrats occurred prior to the end of the war. He was actually elected to a post in Jewish Eisner’s communist party in Bavaria. He even attended Eisner’s funeral. His anti-Semitism and spy work came after the armistice, which was signed by the social democrat chancellor at that time, and after which he broke with the social democrats.
It’s all in this video.
Why would a treaty signed by non-Jews in 1919 cause Hilter to become an antisemite?
Stationed in West Germany in the mid 1980s I kept seeing one specific graffiti repeatedly:
"Ich liebe dich Helmut Kohl - Eva Braun"
The volk just rubbing a little salt in his schnitzel. Even then you could see the Third World invasion of Europe well underway. Damn shame and we'd better fix ours while we can.
