By your logic, one single man was responsible for every action and outcome of the war in Europe from 1939 to 1945.

That is absurd, prima facie.

Hitler set about to unify and strengthen Germany. He defeated the English at Dunkirk, and allowed them to escape, according to the rules of Land Warfare at the time. The Jews had previously declared war upon him, and at that time they pulled their levers and whispered in ears, and got the US involved. Had the US never gotten involved (97% of the US population was against the war from the beginning), Europe would have "settled down", England had its wings clipped, and Germany would most likely have been successful.

So, to claim "it was all Adolph's fault" is a very bizarre conclusion.

@BattleDwarfGimli @vic

Thanks for setting the record straight.

I am still learning and thus still unable to word it that elegant.

But that is exactly my thoughts.

As if any leader in human history would have been able to defeat, Rusia, USA, England, at the same time. In the end even Italy was turned against Germany.

To call someone who did not seek this battle a failure is a falsity. Because no one could have done that and Hitler did not cause this war.

U.S. District Judge Wendy Beetlestone believes that a first-term Trump administration regulation exempting nuns from paying for healthcare plans that cover contraceptives is administratively improper. She also holds that uncontested, repeated shaming of white employees for their race is not "severe or pervasive" enough to create a hostile work environment.

CNN reporter-turned-judge minimizes anti-white hostility, strips religious protection from nuns

White professor allegedly driven out of Penn State for his skin color appeals to higher court after Judge Beetlestone finds the school's behavior not "severe or pervasive." Little Sisters of the Poor seem headed to SCOTUS again.

Research in Norway shows that the use of #AI was detrimental to cancer diagnostics. As doctors started to trust the automated process, they stopped using their own skills. And as the AI wasn't that good either, so the overall results was less cancer was diagnosed at an early stage.

Southern Europe is once again in the grip of extreme summer heat. Soaring temperatures and bone-dry land have fuelled widespread wildfires, with the Iberian Peninsula among the regions hardest hit. Flames continue to sweep across parched landscapes, as these images show.
