If you might recall in response to your comment, I had indirectly made reference to the underlying reason that Hitler hated Jews as much as he did. Reading the book "Explaining Hitler" by David Rosenbaum about fifteen years ago, a book I found to be utterly fascinating, in revelatory exploration of Hitler's life, the many theories, even including the zaniest hypotheses on Hitler's life, suppositions that served as basis for Hitler's pathological hatred for Jews.

One hypothesis offered by the author made the most sense and had the best, most credible circumstantial evidence to support it.

Reading a book where someone offers an unconventional prospect that seems ground breaking is fine and dandy, but if an author is prejudiced, has an ax to grind, or has something to prove, his perspective won't get much further than being one man's opinion, circumstances which exist in today's book-authoring realm more often than not.

But Rosenbaum's theory wasn't something he conjured up, it was something that was revealed to him, spoken from within the darkness, mostly as is in cases like this, as hearsay.

The theory that Rosenbaum presents makes the most logical conclusion for Hitler's infinite rage against Jews, presented in a step-by-step process that makes it difficult to deny with plenty of circumstantial evidence. But as what must be carefully espoused regsarding the theory is that it remains merely circumstanital, despite the compelling mystery in the support of the hypothesis, that nevertheless seems to be the most likeliest to have been the case for Hitler's hatred.

But in Rosenbaum's case, as I've stated earlier, as opposed to where one author has a pet theory but having it remain strictly on the sidelines, he has proven to me that what he offers as the skeleton in Hitler's closet as the reason for Hitler's rabid hatred for Jews is probably what effected Hitler to a considerable degree in having provided a smoking gun that goes a considerable way to "explaining Hitler".

At another time and place, totally at random, I was reading an article about Hitler in a well-respected British newspaper. To my utter shock and surprise, they made the same claim that Rosenbaum provides in his book "Explaining Hitler" to make the case for why Hitler had such pathological hatred for Jews.

And as such, to a certain degree viewing the theory as part of "conventional wisdom", being quoted by the newspaper convinced me more than ever that Rosenbaum having taken the Hitler-Jew-Hating-Skeleton Out of the closet to have been accepted, again not without qualification, because there is no witnesses to it, no one claims Hitler had confided this very thing to them, but with the newspaper's retelling of it, provides the story with an imprimatur of truth.

I'm sorry to have to do this to you, but there things very high on my priority list that I must attend to, but upon receiving your reply, any comments you might have, pledge to regale you in the full, complete story as early as tomorrow.
