Existential struggle and constant war as Hitler's ideology
Hitler's perspective is that different races of mankind are in a perpetual struggle, believing in a conquer-or-die philosophy where the Aryans need to triumph to avoid defeat and disappearance. War is not just a means of gaining prestige or strategic imperative for Hitler but is the essence of his project and an ideology. Planning wars is not new for historical figures, but Hitler's approach is unique as constant war is fundamental to his ideology, evident in his writings and speeches as early as 1928, well before he came to power in 1933.
