Question

3. According to the video, British soldier Henry Tandey could have shot Adolf Hitler in World War I. Make an argument for or against Tandey's action.

Answer 1

Answer:

The killing of Adolf Hitler would not change the historical development of Germany into an totalitarian state.

Explanation:

The killing of Adolf Hitler would not mean necessarily that Germany would not become a Fascist state, since Hitler was just a charismatic figure that took ideas and background from Pangermanism and Völkisch Movement, whose roots date to the early 19th Century as a reaction against French Revolution. He would be replaced by another charismatic figure in German politics.
