Sometimes it is difficult to see the real facts in the midst of confusion. Germany was doing fine right up until the German people gave political and military power to Adolf Hitler. Once he and his Nazi party rose to power, NO ONE could oppose him or the Nazis. They became way too powerful and dissent by any German was not tolerated.
That said, there was dissent because there were over 40 attempts on Hitler's life by his own military. It seems some of them hated his guts and were willing to do anything including assassination to get rid of him.
The German resistance reached out to the Allies (England and the United States) for help in planning and carrying out the assassination of Adolf Hitler. The Allies refused to provide any assistance of any kind to the German resistance. Can you imagine? Had the Allies helped coordinate and plan the assassination of Adolf Hitler along with the German resistance, WWII would have ended FAR EARLIER and many many lives would have been saved ON BOTH SIDES.
Sad story.
