Thank you MID. This is the story I understand as the truth. It all sounds perfectly reasonable and follows what common sense would allow for the situation Hitler and Braum were in. The Russians were killing, stealing and raping. Berlin was destroyed and only a handful of old men and children were left to defend the cause. It was over. Hitler knew it and did what he did. I believe that this story is exactly what happened on that day.
You're welcome Robbie.
I don't think there's any doubt about it.
One must wonder about these ideas that Hitler isn't dead and all.
So What? It was 66 years ago. he was 56, and the most wanted man on the planet. What did he do since. What could he do?
The fact is, the man was diabolically nuts, and a coward. He knew the Russians were gonna get him. He knew that when they did, they'd publically summarily execute he, his staff, and his wife, humiliating him beyond humiliation, just as his Pal Musolini had been executed, then hung up on meathooks in public only a couple days before.
I suppose a nasty pill and a gunshot were preferable, huh?
