There's no denying that Werner Von Braun was a genius. And was way ahead of his time.But the words Mercenary and self-Interest spring to mind

hitler probably had a reason for doing what he did, its just that reason was bullshit

its recon'd that if he'd died around 1938 he would have been remembered as one of the great modern day leaders.

canceled out? that's a fairly large understatement.

"Lehrer" is a German word an means "Teacher" xDHitler was the biggest Asshole ever and the second world war is already over. For information only. Some people appear to forget it ._.'

Everything "good" he did was based on the preparations for war and killing innocent people.

Hitler was in fact a very good speaker. However, it is true that he tapped into his anger to get to be such a good speaker. I believe that somethings he did were in fact good things, however what he did to the Jews, Homosexuals, and Gypies completely cancelled out what good he did for his people.

Hitler had hardly anything to do with pulling germany out of depression. He had a economical genious by his said, Hjamar Schacht. He, and the smart use of foreign exchange by the leadership in general, were basically responsible for that.

rpaxon, you seem to be rather confused. Hitler didn't print money (not enough to cause or solve any real problems anyways). Hyperinflation should be attributed to the Weimar republic, not the third Reich.Also, conventional wisdom holds that Hitler did in fact end the depression in Germany, NOT because he printed money, but because he spent money. In effect he did the same thing as FDR was trying to do with the new deal. The only real difference is that Hitler's new deal was violent.

Printing money doesn't help anything. He didn't REALLY fix Germany's economy, but he did put its infrastructure to use on the war machine, which kept everyone occupied and productive. They essentially borrowed on all of their resources to sink what they had left into a war effort which they lost. If the Allies left Germany to fend for herself after WW2 as they did in WW1 they would have been in even more dire circumstances. So, to say Hitler fixed their economy just isn't really true.

wow. you're really intelligent. of course you know, that there always is inflation if you print large amounts of money.where did YOU learn history? or logiacal thiking...and speeches don't save a nation from a deprssion

Well this is where it becomes intresting, what makes a good speaker? When read back as text as you say it's largely nonsence. But like Putin and Obama today his principal talent was cultivating emotion; this doesn't make him a bad orator, it makes him a 'good' or rather skillful Demigog.Also Hitler didn't print and excess of money that was the process the Weimar undertook which spurred on Hyperinflation. Debasement of the Coinage wasn't a good idea in ancient Rome and it hasn't beensince
