There were approximately 40 attempts on Hitler's life. Over 2000 people were devoted solely to his security while Churchill had only a hand full of security people. Also, Hitler would change travel plans on the fly which also helped to keep his enemies off balance. The German resistance repeatedly requested assistance in planning an assassination of Hitler from both England and the United States and yet were told "no deal". I've discussed this matter with others and there seems to be a feeling that countries do not want to be involved in the assassination of another country's leader for political reasons.

However, I think we can all agree that had Hitler been killed early in the game, WWII may not have happened. The other side of the coin is that war is big business. As a result of WWII, manufacturing in all countries stepped up in a big way giving people JOBS which stabilized their economies. The United States was no exception and many defense contractors benefited in a big way as a result of WWII.

Does that mean that wars are the result of international conspiracies to improve economies? I don't know, you tell me......
