Hitler Biography For Kids

August 28th, 2010

Question: Did Hitler had a "double personality" like some "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde"?

Of course his victims will reject completely my comments and I understand. However reading several books, "The Mind of Adolf Hitler" by Walter C. Langer, "The Psychopatic God" by Robert G.L. Waite and other biographies, make me think this guy was some "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde" character. He could be "nice" with his secretaries, "nice'' with his dog German sheppard, "nice" with the kids [small German kids were taught to call him "Uncle Adolf"] and seem "lovable" with certain people like young peasant girls. Even cried for a dead canary once. Yet isn't this the same guy who ordered a mass extermination war and killed 6 millions Jews in the gas chamber? Really some humans are weird. Feedback, please.
Yes, he persecuted many more victims. But Jews seem to be his "favorite" to hate.
Answer: Hitler did have multiple health problems, other than obvious mental issues he was known to have severe gastrointestinal discomfort, for which he was prescribed some more than questionable remedies, such as dried Hungarian peasants feces, but i digress, we cannot confirm mental health issues as he didn't have regular phsycological evaluations, we can only assume that he was disturbed at some level, but i believe that you have to dismiss claims of multiple personality's without further evidence. If anyone was more disturbed i would say it would have to be either Joseph Stalin, or Edward Gein. look them up if you wish, particularly Gein, he was... odd to say the least.
but don't forget Hitler didn't just kill jews, there were another 6.5million, Slavs, POW's, Homosexuals, Gypsies, and Blacks. So 12.5 Million total, but Stalin had over 25 Million people killed.
