And the majority of Germans & collaborators supported their Fuhrer as long as he was winning the horrific war Germany began.
If you read Shirer's "Berlin Diary," Germans almost had an indifference to the war, when it started.
That changed after the victory over France, and I do believe most did become convinced Hitler was a genius and became more fanatical.
And apparently some posters here think that fighting to make certain that the genocidal regimes that started the war were thrown on the ash heap of history was not necessary. It's unbelievable how many revisionists and sympathizers are here tonight.
