It is time to say the truth: It was not Stalin, not German industrial-ists who created Hitler, it was the eternal geopolitical rivals of Russia.
They were the ones who prepared the World War II to fix the mistake that had been made in 1917. This is what Adolf Hitler was required for.
And that is there was nobody to stop him!

...Any more or less serious war must be
prepared in advance.
Vladimir Lenin
For many years historians and politicians all over the World have been wondering, if the dreadful Second World War could have been averted. Have there been any possibilities to prevent it? Who is guilty of the fearful scenario that lead dozens millions of people to death?
After thinking a little historians provided their answer. If Adolf Hitler, his party and associates were guilty of those events, then the war couldn’t have been prevented, as the Nazi would trigger it off, anyway. Indeed, their doctrine and their ideology called for violence and praised it.
It is so in some way. However, Hitler had to solve many incredibly com-plicated problems to move from idle chatter to dreadful actions. Firstly, he had to establish a party, to state its program aims and to conquer more and more followers of his ideas. And this is where the Nazi would instantly

get into trouble. Propaganda required issue of printed leaflets and books, brochures and news -papers; it was necessary to produce uniforms and flags, to pay salaries to functionaries and propagandists. Yet, even after these problems would have been solved, even a smallest war couldn’t have been unleashed. To attack someone it was necessary to be managing the state, not the party.
Could it have been possible to prevent further cruel acts of the Hitlerite regime? Even at tenuous consideration it becomes obvious that opportuni-ties were aplenty.
If we consider them, it will become apparent that someone made every effort to bring Hitler to power and levy a war.
Let’s start with the base, with democracy. As you might remember, the Weimar Republic was a Democratic state, where citizens elected regulatory bodies by means of universal and equal ballot voting. It was being done this way in German lands since 1919 till 1933, until the Nazi remained alone in the political arena, firstly having disembodied other political organizations and secondly having issued a law, prohibiting establishment of the new ones. Though, Germans had pure democracy for 14 years, until they gave Hitler 43.9 % of their votes during the election on March 5, 1933. But at that time the Nazi’s party was alone in the voting list.

And yet, what made Germans vote for the National Socialist German Workers’ Party? Things can’t be explained only through repressions, con-centration camps and Gestapo. Historians have one answer to that, Hitler was brought to power by economical depression. Immense German inflation was followed by as tremendous Great Depression.
Many of us know that inflation was great in the Weimar Republic, though hardly anyone knows any real values. These values are so large that one simply can’t comprehend them. They are beyond anybody’s imagination. They are just incogitable. Judge for yourself.
During four and a half years of democracy and liberty the Deutschmark declined against the American dollar by 1815 times. That was extremely and dangerously much. However, it was only the beginning. True economical “wonders” started right in 1923. It was the year when Ernst Hanfstaengl had helped Adolf Hitler to acquire a printing house, where the Nazi’s news-paper was printed for the populace. It was then that the Fьhrer believed in himself and was thinking of revolution merely all day long, having absorbed some ideas subtly expressed by Hanfstaengl about it being necessary for Germany

to become friends with America and Great Britain. It was the year when Hitler staged the Beer Hall Putsch.

In the end of November 1923 one dollar was worth four trillion two hundred milliards of Deutschemarks! This value was astronomically large,indeed. Modern astronomers state that there are one trillion of Galaxies all over the Universe…
Can you imagine that inflation in peace-time reached the amount of 578.512 % (five hundred seventy eight thousand five hundred and twelve

percent) within less than one year? However, the arithmetical aspect of too many zeroes wasn’t the most direful thing. Because of such impairment of the money value it was necessary to take a barrow full of depreciated cur-rency to go marketing. If someone wished to buy something bigger than food, he would need a cargo vehicle.
Can unrelieved gloom of life in Germany during that period be described with one sentence? Well, here is this sentence: people weren’t buried in wooden coats anymore, paper bags were used instead1. A wooden coat be-came extreme luxury, just like an American dollar. At the same time Ernst Hanfstaengl presented his friend Adolf as much as one thousand dollars. Were all of these events accidental?
And one more fact to prove that inflation in Germany was man-made and artificial. Having reached truly astronomic values at the time of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch, inflation stopped three weeks after that. That unprecedented astronomic inflation simply stopped. Indeed, there was no need for it any longer. Even under such phantasmagoric conditions Germans didn’t sup-port Hitler in his attempt to conquest power. Five (!) days after the Beer Hall Putsch on November 13, 1923 Hjalmar Schacht was authorized to deal with matters of national currency2. He managed to fix the final purchase price of 4.2 trillion Deutschmarks per one dollar. On December 22, 1923, Schacht became Head of the German Central Bank, and in August 1924 he adopted new solid Deutschmarks, sponging the memory of fourteen zeroes on German currency as a nightmare3. The American dollar became worth 4.2 Deutschmarks.

The first economical apocalypse in Germany didn’t help Hitler to come to power, so it was necessary to exploit the second one. On October 29, 1929, also known as Black Tuesday, there was an unprecedented crash in the Stock Market in New-York4. The crash signaled top-rank global eco-nomical crisis, also known as Great Depression. It must have been another miraculous coincidence, but this crisis stopped as soon as Hitler became

Reichschancellor1. However, it wasn’t the most surprising thing about the story of Great Depression.
Let’s go for strictly for the facts. What sticks out here first is strange relation between causes and effects. The crisis happened in America, and Hitler came to power in Germany, this is what historians tell us. How is thatlogical? Brokers and intermediaries were shooting themselves to death, were jumping out of windows, but evil Hitler for some reason came to power in another country. By the way, it was a global crisis. It was stated to be the main reason of the Nazi’s victory. Oh, it was such a crisis, it was so violent, it was a global crisis! That is why German burghers wanted a strongman.

It seems logical in some way. In troubled times people always wish stabil-ity and are eager to follow the one impersonating and promising it. There was only one “only” there. As it was a global crisis, “hitlers” would have come to power not only in Germany, but everywhere. The crisis was victoriously marching all over the World, not only over German lands. From New-York and Washington the crisis was moving evenly like a tsunami, and only the USSR escaped it. Though, nowhere SUCH government came to power. There were no SUCH party and SUCH leader anywhere.
How could it be possible? Has the crisis like a localized strike affected only the German economy? This question is very important, and that is why books about Hitler and Nazism provide detailed descriptions of how the crisis affected the German economy, but don’t say a word about England or the USA. At best, Author would briefly sum it up like “In England and in the United States economical and social consequences might have been as severe…”2 And then there will be a long story about the number of un-employed in Germany only. And Reader gets an impression that Germans were the only ones to be in trouble, that was why they voted for Hitler. Though, it’s a lie.
And this lie wasn’t occasional, it intended to disguise help that the demo-niac Fьhrer got. It was Germany that had to attack Russia, it wasn’t France, or England, or the USA. That is why it was Germany where the aggressive leader should have come to power…
The Great Depression started in 1929 and finished in 1933.

It is true that Germany had some real trouble. As we have already men-tioned, as soon as the story about the Nazi coming to power is told with certain values, story-telling historians surprisingly lack coordination.
“In September 1929 the number of unemployed came to 1 million 320 thousand persons, and in September 1931 it reached 3 million”1, this is what Soviet historians say. However, Western researches need to downplay the part of their governments in Hitler’s coming to power, so they assess the German economy of that period even worse, “As early as in the begin-ning of 1929… the number of unemployed for the first time exceeded three million2. Another Western Researcher A. Bullock stated that this amount equaled 3 million as early as before the global crisis3.
The book issued in the USSR provides some absolutely different values. Even the dynamics of unemployment is different there. The amount of un-employed becomes less before the crisis and increases after it. “In 1928 the amount of unemployed came to 650 thousand persons for the first time since 1918 (before that it was over a million)”4. And in Western research papers amounts of unemployed Germans keeps hopping like a hare beyond any logical outline. They insist that tremendous growth of the unemployed number because of the crisis caused millions of people to consider voting for Hitler. And before October 1929 the German economy was expanding and but for the global crash, the Nazi would have never come to power. Though, how can stability be considered, if there were three million unem-ployed there? What does the Black Tuesday have to do with that? Make up your mind, please, either Germany was stable, and the global crisis should be blamed, or there were millions of unemployed, and then the Weimar “democracy” was the one guilty.
Yet the task set for the Western researchers is a complicated one, and a contradictory, too. They have to explain how Hitler came to power and to shift the blame to the economical environment beyond humans’ control. This is where the contradictions come from, making it look like the Western authors have never read their own books. Indeed, one page (!) later after stating that there were three million unemployed in Germany in the begin-

ning of 1929. J. Fest, for instant, says that in September 1930 the number of unemployed “exceeded three million again”1. The Researcher doesn’t explain how this value was changing. However, we don’t really need that information. If this value varied seriously (say, it was 3 million, then it be-came 2 million, and then it became 3 million again), than it is a symptom of instability rarely met. If this value varied a little (say, it was 3 million, then it became 2 million 900 thousand, and then it became a little bigger than 3 million), it is also a sign of instability, because the number of unemployed is permanently high, and the country is in a dead-end state…
Well, it was an extremely complicated task for the Western writers, indeed. Blaming the crisis in the Weimar Republic for Hitler coming to power, they should by no means reveal that German so-called democracy was managed from abroad in the best interests of Great Britain and the USA. The author of this book doesn’t hyperbolize or invent things.
“Behind the veneer of republican governments and Democratic in-stitutions, imposed by victors and tainted with defeat…”2, this is how not Gцring or Goebbels, but Winston Churchill himself considered German “democracy” of that period.
Information about amount of unemployed wasn’t classified. This value is normally determined by state authorities, so it can be easily found, if necessary. Then, why do authors writing about Hitler have these values so different?
That is because even basing on the number of unemployed some inter-esting conclusions can be made. Who is the first to suffer in case of Stock market crashing and financial crisis? Naturally, it is large industry. When people loose their money and jobs, they instantly stop buying goods in-tended for long -term use, though they don’t start buying less food at once. So, firstly, such enterprises are stopped. At the same time plants produc-ing tools and units are stopped, as nobody is going to buy anything from them in case of crisis, it is bad timing for production expansion. This was exactly what happened in Germany. Since 1929 till 1932 volumes of indus-trial production reduced twice3. Consequently, large centers should have suffered from the worst social consequences of the crisis. Following logic

of Hitler-studies, residents of these areas voted for the National Socialist German Workers’ Party and ensured its triumph.
But was it really so?
“The highest percentage of the Nazi voters was to be found in … agri-cultural districts of north and east Germany… They also did very well in districts with a mixed economy of agriculture and small-scale industry…”1 “The Nazis did much less well in urban heavy-industrial … areas”2. “…Their (the Nazi. — N. S.) percentage of the vote reached its peak of
41 per cent in communities (rural as well as urban) of under 25,000 and fell to 32 per cent in those over 100,000”3.
Unbelievable, but workers of Berlin, Hamburg and Ruhr, who were the first to loose their job and bread, didn’t go to vote for Hitler due to some reason. However, farmers and habitants of German small comfortable towns, who were relatively okay, zealously supported him. How is that logical?
This is not logical at all. Everybody describing the Nazi Reich repeats certain clichйs. The pioneers intentionally created some stereotypes, and the followers gladly repeat them. Consequently, the ones who helped Hitler to seize power and thereby became accomplices in his crimes, the ones guilty of the Second World War instigation, of genocide on the Jews and deaths of 24 million of our fellow-citizens, hide behind bunches of figures and words in books of these amateurish writers…
Though, it is easier to comprehend the truth than it may seem. When the Nazi came to power in Germany, there were about 6 million unemployed there4. How many unemployed were there in England and the USA, though? I have been looking for these figures for some time, and I managed to find them.
In England two million people had no job, whereas in the USA the value was 15 million5.
The book under the impressive name of Global history, written by lead-ing historians, provides even more stunning results, stating that there were 17 million unemployed in the USA6.

Why England and France didn’t care to avert the Second World War
“The whole wealth so swiftly gathered in the paper values of previous years vanished. The prosperity of millions of American homes had grown upon a gigantic structure of inflated credit now suddenly proved phantom. The mighty production plants were thrown into confusion and paralysis. In the wake in the collapse of the stock market came during the years between 1929 and 1932 an unrelenting fall in prices and consequent cuts in produc-tion causing widespread unemployment”1, this is what Winston Churchill wrote about the Great Depression in the USA.
So, it wasn’t only Germany where people were scavenging for food. There were much more people in the same situation over the ocean, about which we just don’t know now. To be more specific, no one conceals disastrous consequences of the Great Depression in the USA, this data is just provided in other books.
Books about Hitler and his coming to power never provide any of these facts. So, it seems to the Reader that crisis has affected the Germans most.
By the way, coal mining level in the USA reduced by 42 %, cast iron production — by 79 %, steel production — by 76 %, and car production — by 80 %. Only 46 of 297 blast furnaces were operated2. The amount of enterprises and firms crashed in the USA during the crisis period was fan-tastic — it was 135,747. 10,000 banks fell to non-existence!3 After industry and finances the American agriculture also sank into the deep crisis, and wheat export from the USA reduced by 82 %. Prices for agricultural products collapsed, causing income of farmers to reduce more than twice. During five years of the crisis over one million farms were put up for sale, which was 18.2 % from the total amount of farms in America4.
The USA population wasn’t going to face up to such quick and disastrous decrease of their living standards. America was shaken by series of meet-ings and demonstrations, in which hundreds thousands of people took part. Everything was so bad in America that the Unemployed Hunger Marches became its “carte-de-visite” (not a visit card of Germany). These ended in December 1931 by the nationwide Hunger March to Washington. In sum-mer 1932 unemployed veterans of the First World War took their turn to

go forward to Washington. They were picketing the Capitol for five days, after which the President of the USA ordered to drive them away by force. This military operation was performed not by Police, but by Army Corps with Cavalry and even tanks!1
No one was good in the World then, as since 1931 the Deutschmark stopped being convertible, the pound sterling lost its gold standard, and Roosevelt devaluated the dollar after coming to power.
Explosion is most destructive in the place, where the missile lands; most serious destructions are observed in the epicenter of earthquake or tornado. Things in the outskirts of the crisis can’t be worse than in its center. So, where should the Nazi have come to power? Judging by the amount of unemployed, it should have been the USA. And in Great Britain extremists should have played some serious part in politics, at least, or even win. However, nothing like that happened in the Anglo-Saxon countries. How come their Fascist parties were so weak and didn’t play any part in histories of their countries?
That was because no one was going to bring a Fьhrer to power in Eng-land or the USA!
Hitler’s coming to power wasn’t caused by either economic or inside political reasons of Germany. It wasn’t decided in Berlin that he should be at the helm, it was decided in London and Washington.
The Anglo-Saxon States had their global interests in future defeat of Russia. Only after such decision had been made, Hitler was literally dragged to the top, all possible actuators within political and economical elite of Germany applied…
The British must have had enough secret actuators to pull in Germany, otherwise suicidal policy of the Weimar democracy playing along with Hitler simply can’t be explained. Though, let conspiracists and conspiracy theoreticians study this matter. We are well with absolutely clear actua-tors, which allowed to move the German policy as needed. This was the Treaty of Versailles. Scrupulous winners put loads of conditions there, but for the very important one, the amount of reparation. The Treaty contained only general wording, which obliged the German government to reimburse damage caused to citizens of Allied states and to cover expenses for pensions of soldiers, widows and families of those, who died on the Entente side. Differently speaking, the guilty one was found and condemned, but the Court didn’t mention how much he had to pay
The Global History. V. 22. P. 253–254.
110
Why England and France didn’t care to avert the Second World War
to the indemnities. Only the first call was indicated in the Treaty, and it was 20 billion Deutschmarks1. Imagine what a powerful actuator the winners had! In case of “correct” policy the reparation amount could be reduced, and in case of “incorrect” actions it could be rapidly increased. And the main point was that the Treaty couldn’t have been contested! It was curious that the precise reparation amount was announced right in 1928. Right after Trotsky was exiled, and when Hitler instantly got loads of money and started his breakthrough to the height of power.
Of course, it is possible that economical regress in Germany made regular burghers took a fancy in the Nazi. But the main reason why elec-tors sympathized Hitler was different. During 14 years of its existence the Weimar Republic had proven absolutely incapable of solving any more or less important state matters.
“A sense of absolute melancholy and existential frustration dominated”2, says Fest J. about feelings of Germans during the economical crisis. How-ever, these words can be used in regard to the entire period of the Weimar Republic. The country was a perfect mess. There is no need to invent a time machine and travel to Germany of that time to see that. It is enough to look through history school books. And it must be looking through, not close reading, because absurdness of the Weimar realities is striking. Why so?
Because elections took place in Germany all the time!
Any good idea reduced to absurdity becomes really bad. This was what happened to elections in Germany. In modern Russia the Parliament and the President are elected once in four years, though, no one would deny that instability adversely affects economy increases in years of fateful elections. Businessmen and foreign investors await the results of voting by Russian citizens to decide, if it is time to get packed or to invest. Even in mature countries change of the government and presidents affect market indexes and exchange rates. Of course, countries with unstable democracy and im-mature economy don’t make exclusions. Please, notice, that neither in the USA or Great Britain, or France anyone devised to hold pre-election battles too often. As Western politics and economists understand perfectly well, annual elections can destroy any powerful economy and make the popula-tion extremely tired of permanent political encounters. We have seen it fairly well in terms of our country. Anybody’s mind can stand instability for

a rather short period, and after that people simply stop attending elections and paying interest to things on.
However, in Germany something unimaginable was going on. “One of the Democratic provisions of the Weimar Constitution prescribed elections to the Reichstag every four years. It was hoped by this provision to make sure that the masses of the German people should enjoy a complete and continuous control over their Parliament. In practice of course it only meant that they lived in a continual atmosphere of febrile political excitement and ceaseless electioneering”1. Parliamentary elections once in two years caused Deputies and Parties to start getting ready for the new election campaign right after they entered the Reichstag. There was no time for work! Was it possible that authors of the Weimar Constitution didn’t know such simple matters?
Certainly, it wasn’t. However, this Constitution was passed with the Trojan horse, bringing permanent instability, which should only have been actuated as required. Why was it necessary? To move the politics of Germany according to the course required. Indeed, elections are not just leaflets and bulletins, they are accompanied by rows and deadly struggle. Candidates and parties need support, assistance and money, so they can be managed without formation of a new powerful German state, which in the end of 19th century became the most rapidly growing player in the global stage. Titanic strains were taken to defeat Germany during the First World War, as well as immense amounts of money and millions of lives. It would be unpardonably stupid to let things go on their own in the German land after that. When the Soviet Union released the Eastern Europe from Fascists, no one doubted that Stalin would establish Russia-friendly regimes there, somewhere in good way, somewhere tenderly, and somewhere by means of downright violence. It was reasonable and correct from the political point of view. Can it be assumed that in 1918 Leaders of England, France and the USA were less clever and hadn’t established puppet regime in Germany?
Take Churchill. In his memoires he tells us how he has been sharing areas of influence with Stalin in the end of the war, rather straightforward and extremely cynical. No illusions, no ideology, only pure profit, Churchill chaffered Greece, and communist rebels didn’t get any support from Moscow there. Their ideology didn’t help them, because ideology is always a disguise for true interests of the state. Ideological screens change, whereas the es-sence remains the same.
