I was in Austria some years ago and our guide had a real snicker at that. She said that Hitler was an AUSTRIAN, not a German but everyone believed that he was a German and the Austrians, snicker, snicker, let the world believe it. The AUSTRIANS produced the MONSTER, not Germany. She got a real kick out of that. I didn't ever hear that from any other of our tour guides, in either Austria or Germany.

Reminds me of the joke.... "The Austrians are brilliant people. They made the world believe that Hitler was a German and Beethoven was an Austrian."

Hahaha. Good one. They are experts at re-writing human history.

MOZART was Austrian. Couldn't the Austrians be happy with HIS genius?
