What would have happened if Adolf Hitler was killed by the July 20th assassination attempt?

German resistance would have collapsed sooner.  The Allies were going for "Unconditional Surrender" no matter who was in charge for the Germans.  The result for the most part would have been the same, probably saving a significant number of lives on both sides. The political climate may have been more friendly between east & west over the next 60 years.  There might not have been the partitioning of Germany the way it was.  And maybe it could have freed up a lot of needed resources to get the Pacific war ended sooner also.

Hell, NO!!!  Chicken crap democrats would have let Saddam kill another million or so people.  Just like before WW2.  If someone had the balls to attack Germany in the 1930's how many millions of people and how much property would have been spared.

Laser his top lip so he could never grow that moustache! \nOther than that, I don't think it's anyone's place to mess with history, no matter how bad it was, because something even worse could happen! Imagine if, instead of Hitler, someone even more bent on destruction came through...

If it was an assassination attempt, then I would presume that Dick Cheney would assume the role of president, and more importantly, Commander-in-chief, under the 25th amendment.  \n\nImmediately afterwards, Dick and the joint chiefs and NSA/CIA/Homeland Security and others will try to figure out who is responsible for the hit.  Then I would assume that a bunch of missiles and bombs will start to drop on whoever was responsible.\n\nThat would be the scenario if it was a faction or a terrorist group.  If it was a sole gunman in, say, Germany, who just sniped the president, then that is a little more complicated, since I doubt they will bomb Germany for that.  (They might if he was in Pakistan, see the disparity).  If the secret service didn't kill the sniper/gunman then, there would be an allout search for him.  If they ever found him, he'd be extradited to the US, tried in the most publicized trial ever, and if convicted, he'd be executed.\n\nIn any case, if the president died, the VP is president, and they'd have to nominate someone to be the VP (probably a senator).

Madman Hitler and a Top General devised a plan that would get the Citizens Furious. and it was to Blow Up the Parliment Building(help me History Buffs) The Reichstag Building?  Anyway, the enemies of Germany were Blamed, probably The Jews, Russians, etc. which is the ole' FALSE FLAG Trick. The German People were so Ourtraged they missed the consequences of  Adolph&Co. declaring Martial Law!  All those in Opposition of  Hitlers Policies were labled Enemies, or UnPatriotic (Sound familiar?) , and were either silenced,beaten, arrested, or Shot. So I guess my answer is: Support was gained thru LIES, Coercion(sp) ,Murder...   hey wait a second.. VonRumsvelt ?  Karl with a K  ?  hmmmm. W's grandaddy a supporter, pals w/dolfman..DikkkkVon HeinrichBlitzkreigunBurger?hmmmmm.....

If Hitler hadn't attacked Russia, they would have been very suspicious allies. Germany may have put Britain out of the war and captured more of Africa and the Mideast. With all that captured by Germany, the US would have concentrated on the Pacific war. I don't think Germany could do a trans-Atlantic invasion, especially if the British scuttled their navy or sailed to the US to be the "Free British". The Germans had very few ships. After 1945 there would have been a US-German cold war.

Assuming I still had air to breathe ... first I would go kill every criminal because there would be no repercussions because no one would know I did it.  Of course, that might be difficult if I had no vehicle/airplane/pilot to transport me.  Assuming I had a vehicle/airplane/pilot I would also travel all over the world and see the sights for free.  Hmm ... this is a difficult question.  There wouldn't be much left to do after that.

Hitler took a destitute country and built it into a major world power in only a few short years.  If he'd stopped there, he would have been recognized as a genius.

I don't know if i could kill a baby, but I would definately won't to prevent Hitler from becoming what he became, so yeah i guess, maybe i would just hire someone to do it.

Adolf Hitler  (April 20, 1889 – April 30, 1945) was Chancellor of Germany from 1933 and Führer (Leader) of Germany from 1934 until his death. He was leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), better known as the Nazi Party.\n\nHitler gained power in Germany facing crisis after World War I. He used charismatic oratory and propaganda, appealing to economic need, nationalism and anti-Semitism to establish an authoritarian regime. With a restructured economy and rearmed military, Hitler pursued an aggressive foreign policy with the intention of expanding German Lebensraum ('living space') and triggered a major war in Europe by invading Poland. At the height of their power, Germany and the Axis Powers occupied most of Europe, but were eventually defeated by the Allies in what became known as World War II. By then, Hitler's racial policies had culminated in the genocide, number of victims is commonly cited as about 11 million people, including about 6 million Jews.\n\nIn the final days of the war, at the age of 56, Hitler committed suicide in his underground bunker in Berlin, together with his newly wed wife, Eva Braun.\n\nHOLCAUST\nBetween 1939 and 1945 the SS, assisted by collaborationist governments and recruits from occupied countries, systematically killed about 11 million people, including about 6 million Jews[4], in concentration camps, ghettos and mass executions, or through less systematic methods elsewhere. Besides being gassed to death, many also died of starvation and disease while working as slave labourers. Along with Jews, non-Jewish Poles (over 3 million of whom died), alleged communists or political opposition, members of resistance groups, homosexuals, dissenting Roman Catholics and Protestants, Roma, the physically handicapped and mentally retarded, Soviet prisoners of war, Jehovah's Witnesses, anti-Nazi clergy, trade unionists, and psychiatric patients were killed. This industrial-scale genocide in Europe is referred to as the Holocaust (the term is also used by some authors in a narrower sense, to refer specifically to the unprecedented destruction of European Jewry in particular).\n\nThe massacres that led to the coining of the word "genocide" (the Endlösung der jüdischen Frage or "Final Solution of the Jewish Question") were planned and ordered by leading Nazis, with Himmler playing a key role. While no specific order from Hitler authorizing the mass killing of the Jews has surfaced, there is documentation showing that he approved the Einsatzgruppen and the evidence also suggests that sometime in the fall of 1941 Himmler and Hitler agreed in principle on mass extermination by gassing. During interrogations by Soviet intelligence officers declassified over fifty years later, Hitler's valet Heinz Linge and his military aide Otto Gunsche said Hitler had "pored over the first blueprints of gas chambers."\n\nTo make for smoother intra-governmental cooperation in the implementation of this "Final Solution" to the "Jewish question", the Wannsee conference was held near Berlin on January 20, 1942, with fifteen senior officials participating, led by Reinhard Heydrich and Adolf Eichmann. The records of this meeting provide the clearest evidence of central planning for the Holocaust. Days later, on February 22, Hitler was recorded saying to his closest associates, "we shall regain our health only by eliminating the Jew".\nHitler committed suicide in the Führerbunker on April 30, 1945 by means of a self-delivered shot to the head (it is likely he simultaneously bit into a cyanide ampoule). Hitler's body and that of Eva Braun (his long-term mistress whom he had married the day before) \n\nSo my friend he was not a good man

We remember so that we don't let history repeat itself.  Hitler was a great Orator who used his ability of speach giving to build up the Nazi party and eventually take control of Germany.  He was a Corporal in World War I and was devistated by the German Loss of the war as well as the terms of the surrender. He built an army with youth clubs and an Airforce out of Flying Clubs as Germany was restricted as to the number in each by the treaty of Versalles.  He built a strong organization of Secret Police and held a real tight reign on the people of Germany as well as the Annexed areas of Europe that were conceeded to him.\n\nOf course World War II started in 1939 when Hitler took Poland in about 3 weeks time and turned around and marched through France in 6 weeks.  The Europe war lasted until May 8, 1945.  The U.S. fought with Japan until September, 1945.\n\nBefore and during World War II Hitler dreamed of a society led by the German Aryan Race, he set out a plan to help produce more purity in Europe with his "Final Solution".  He was responsible for the genocide extermination of 6,000,000 Jews, as well as many Gypsies and Jehovah's Witnesses. He used most of these people before their extermination as slave labor for his war machine.  He was so adamant about the extermination of the Jews that he used resources such as Rail Roads that could have moved troops to the Russian front to move Jews to Extermination Camps.  All of the "Concentration Camps" also required much manpower that could have been put to use in the war effort.  By the end of the War Hitler was ordering troops that did not exist into battle.  He was quite ill with Parkinsons Disease and extremely paranoid of all germs and of course plots against his life.  He died by committing suicide so that he could not be taken alive.  His vast empire had collapsed into 3 square blocks when he finally died and the Germans continued to fight for a little over a week after his death.\n\nHitler needs to be remembered because of his "Racist" ideas and where they lead.  We need to remember what happened to all the people who died in what was probably the largest effort at genocide to date.  He built killing factories to do this work and it must be remembered so that we do not ever allow this thing to happen again in this world.  I believe that his failures in life were probably his greatest influence.  He spent around 2 years in prison after a failed revolt in 1923, during which time he wrote "Mein Kampf" in which he outlined his plans for Germany and his Master Race. The sales of this book made Hitler a Millionaire, which allowed him more time to spend on Politics and not have to worry about how to pay the bills.  His greatest Role Model was Benito Mussulini the Fascist Dictator of Italy, however later in the war it was Hitler that was the role model for Mussulini.\n\nThis is one page in history that we never want to see repeated and that is why we must remember Hitler.

I would shoot myself. If I became so detached to where I didn't know what was going on in my country enough for that to be a suprise...I would not consider myself a viable citizen.\n\nIf I knew it was happening, I would do what I had to do.
