The USA though unsuccessful in the end even toyed with the idea of deindustrialization of Germany. The victors many a times ignore the rules and conventions forgetting the common sense approach! After all, nothing succeeds like success and conversely nothing fails like failure. World War II clearly goes on to show as to how one powerful person can rewrite the destiny and the history of the mankind. It also proves the aphorism that ‘History is the biography of the minds of men’. Hitler was clearly and erroneously blinded by his ambition complemented by fire power and earlier on victoriously overrunning many countries, a few of them without too much use of the fire power. For Germany there was absolutely no need of invading a ‘friendly’ country like the Soviet Russia. Nazi forces overran Moscow and marched northwards overpowering a number of cities. They then put a siege around the next most famous city of Leningrad, or St Petersburg as it was known those times. It was here in October 1917, where Lenin traveling from Helsinki by train alighted to start the Bolshevik Revolution in order to challenge and finish feudalism in the form of the Czar. He met with a tumultuous welcome since he was greeted by thousands of Russians reeling under the unjust regime of the Czar. Karl Marx, the famous German Jew who propounded the famous theories of Marxism and Das Kapital and worked for Oxford University, spent his lifetime in England. He never put his foot on the Russian soil. However, his theory found its feet on the Russian soil in the form of Vladimir Lenin and Josef Stalin. The latter, though being one of the longest serving dictators of his times wedded to Communism and having committed untold atrocities against his countrymen, built the largest country of the world into a strong nation behind an iron curtain and in terms of fire power and facilities like magnificent metro especially in the huge capital city of Moscow.

Hitler was born, the same year as Nehru, at Braunau in Austria- Hungary, among the blue foothills of the Tyrolean redoubt. From his mother, the 20-year-old third wife of his 53-year-old father, Hitler inherited his blue-green eyes, and probably his tendency to tantrums and his anemic artistic talent. From his father, who had risen by a lifetime’s effort from a peasant to a petty customs inspector, Hitler probably inherited a toughness of character that was not so much strength as a persistent stubbornness in overcoming weakness. After his father who wanted to make him a petty official, his mother who liked to make him an artist died within a span of two years, young Hitler packed his few clothes in a suitcase and struck out for Vienna. It was a momentous trip for mankind. For in gay, cosmopolitan, highly civilized Vienna the young German nationalist from the Alps suffered for the first time three new urban experiences that profoundly influenced his future. These were: the slum proletariat, Social Democratic trade unions, Jews.
