That was a man who knew what he wanted, and he got what he wanted.

"Just gimme some waffles with grits."
Don't tell the anti-smoking, anti-drinking, anti-meat-eating Nazis that it's entirely possible to do all three and live to a ripe old age. It'll freak 'em out.
How funny that the vegetarian, non-boozing, non-smoking Fuehrer was pwned by three meat-eating, cigar/cigarette/pipe smokers.
I saw a survey where a significant minority of British citizens who believed Churchill was a mythical figure. The world sure has devolved due to liberalism.

To think that a state-owned aircraft would have such a well-stocked kitchen!
Unfortunately there seems to be an enormous education gap in the UK, and it seems to be growing.
You forgot women and fatty foods.
“Just gimme some waffles with grits.”
Heck, welfare bunnies like Obama don’t rise
before noon. That pic was probably the first
breakfast that he’d had in his life.
Breakfast of champions. Works for me.
Old Scottish saying : “ It’s never too early for a lass or a glass . “
But you have to admit, the pwning came at a terrible cost to all parties involved.
If he had not indulged in war, not given in to his belligerance, waited to get the missiles perfected, and then gotten The Bomb, the world would have been a very, very different hell by now.
Great way of putting it.

The Nazis had a major structural impediment to "getting The Bomb."
It is based on Jewish Science, you know. A significant majority of top physicists had fled Germany because they were Jewish or leftist (true, unfortunately.) A counter-productive policy for the Nazis if there ever was one.
It was not as if Jews everywhere were coming up with revolutionary scientific breakthroughs- it could be specifically narrowed down to German Jews who had been educated under the German system, Jewish or not; who became the scientific revolutionaries of the period. You could stretch that to include the German-centric cultures of Switzerland, Austria, etc.
Hitler committed a blunder by turning his madness onto the Jews; but even without them, had Germany not gotten into war, the Bomb would have come into their possession- it was just a matter of time. Others would not have progressed as far as they did, had the German scientists not been forced to emigrate.
Besides that, the pressure of war accelerated developments outside Germany. Without that pressure, and assuming peace to have prevailed in Germany, they most likely would have gotten the Bomb first, and with it, probably the only country with a capable missile system to deliver it reliably.
The war was a boon to the rest of the world, in a sadistic way.
