Re: "But why destroy Hitler? If to liberate Germans, it was not worth it. After all, the Germans voted Hitler in."

What an idiot. His history needs a little work. The German Workers SOCIELIST Party (aka Nazis) never received more than a third of the vote. It was the power brokers, bankers and Junkers who arranged a deal with the largest political party, the Nazis, thinking they could control Hitler. So much for the worldly wisdom of the sophisticated and elites among us.

Nothing undemocratic about it, however. Many parliamentary democracies are run that way. If you don't get 50% then you form coalitions to get you there. Hitler got power fair and square.
