406. The Nazis in Power: Hitler’s Road to War (Part 3)

The Rest Is History

NOTE

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.
