\nAccess date: Today’s date<\/p>\nGermany Threatens Europe<\/strong><\/p>\nThe German dictator and Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, in power since 1933, signalled the return of Germany to a position of strength in Europe. Hitler\u2019s frenzied speeches about restoring honour after Germany’s defeat in the First World War\u00a0and the humiliation of the\u00a0Treaty of Versailles, and his orders to engage in a program of rearmament, put the ‘fatherland’ on a new course for war. His totalitarian regime spread terror by assassinating political rivals, putting his enemies into concentration camps and persecuting Jews. Hitler cajoled and lied, oscillating between aggression and conciliation to confuse his enemies, but always with a goal of guiding Germany to its full might through war.<\/p>\n

\u2018Believe! Obey! Fight!\u2019
\n\u2018War is to the male what childbearing is to the female!\u2019
\n\u2018A minute on the battlefield is worth a lifetime of peace!\u2019<\/p>\n
They saw, they could hardly fail to see, that these were remarkably silly messages.\u00a0 The urban workers and the rural labourers, whose standards of living improved very little, were being terrorised into obedience. The anti-socialists who had welcomed the Duce<\/em> in 1920 had not the slightest desire to spend even half a minute on the battlefield:\u00a0 they had believed that Fasci<\/em> would do all their fighting for them, against those whom they thought were enemies of a stable, orderly and respectable society.\u00a0 They had prayed for a strong man to take away nasty politics, rather as small children ask Daddy to take away the pain. Once the struggle to control the masses of the people was over, they found themselves in the grip of a political loudmouth who asked them to accept the absurdity that \u2018Mussolini is always right\u2019. By that time of course, as we have seen, they had thrown away their right to disagree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"October 16, 2021 Citefast – use this citation maker to create your bibliography in Chicago style You’re writing a paper on World War II.\u00a0 Below are three sources that you are using for your paper. 1.\u00a0 \u00a0Paraphrase the text for each of the sources below. 2.\u00a0 Do a foot note for each source. 3.\u00a0 Do … <\/p>\n
