Why not add Reagan, Bush and Clinton to the bunch. Before you start with your rhetoric, I am not an Obama fan.

You need to check the whole situation and development with an impartial eye and THEN express your opinion. While inhuman things happened, and happened out of the scope of the cruelties that happen in any war, which by itself is already enough, we need to set aside any partiality and see things for what they were and how and why they happened. I praise Stauffenberg actions and bravery (specially knowing what would happen to his own family), but will not ponder too much on personal motives or interests.

And in so doing, would have saved perhaps millions of lives, not of few of which would have been members of the German nation. Among the lives saved would have been that of von Stauffenberg, who truly was one of the noblest men of Germany's long history. He did his best to fight for Germany's victory, up to the limits of what his Christian conscience would permit him to ignore about the evil, vicious, and destructive criminal who had taken control of the German state. But I wonder whether an assassinated Hitler would then have become a martyr fixed in the minds of many if not most of the other Germans. Would that have become the basis for the development of a new legend of Germany being stabbed in the back by internal enemies?

Just look at the situation with Obama. When he was first elected, many people, mostly minorities, thought he was going to be the great savior, just as many Germans thought Hitler was going to be. It's when you find out that the person in question, turns out to be bad, that one sits up and takes notice. The average German, soldier or not, didn't know what all Hitler was doing, just as the average American doesn't know what all Obama is doing. But thanks to the advanced news media that we have these days, people are picking up on Obama. If the news media was what it is now, back in the 40's, the Germans might have realized what was going on, much sooner. The answer is simple. Just look at the situation with Obama.
