Was Hitler Insane or Just Plain Evil
Would any normal human being ever be able to perform the actions of Adolf Hitler with glee and enthusiasm? To tell you the truth, I still do not know whether he learned to be bad or he was born that way. But then, for one second, I see totally unrelated with all of this: Hitler’s possibly deformed genitals. The truth is actually us, and if you had hidden notions like these, be ready to be shocked after you facing the truth!

The Ugly Truth About George Washington
George Washington, being considered the father of the United States, and the symbol of great and proud America, has a legacy that is both admired and questioned. Along with the stories of his bravery on the war front and leadership as the first US President, there is also the shadowy aspect of his life which sometimes remains unmentioned. If not for Washington's incalculable role in the creation of the country, it's equally important to highlight the multifaceted nature of his personality and decisions.

Why Hitler Practiced Occult Rituals
Some of the coldest pages in the historical books can be written in the name of the German Nazi Party, at the very core of the turmoil from the World War II. The horrors of the Holocaust, the Night of the Long Knives, and the gruesome human experimentation in concentration camps have left scholars grappling with a fundamental question: probably it was the psychological effects that made peace loving people to turn into perpetrators of unspeakable violence under the influence of such cruel conditions. At the search for the reasons, some have resorted to the hypothesis of the paranormal forces, for example of the demons or the 666, though these notions absolutely contradict to the results of the scientific research.

Real Reason Why Hitler Was Scared of X Troops
Lt. Aldo Raine's most striking lines in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" perhaps articulated the vision of the viewers, but in fact the life histories of the soldiers who gave birth to the film are way more interesting. In World War II, the Allies put together teams of Jewish soldiers with missions to perform covert operations against Nazi Germany. These heroic men went against the odds, from landing on shore of Normandy to sneaking in enemy lines, all the time facing the cruelties of war and the agony of losing a fellow soldier.
