When thinking about a leader, an important question to ask is what really makes a leader great, and what does he or she do to make themselves so great? Webster’s Dictionary describes a leader as a person who directs a military force or unit, and/or a person who has commanding authority or influence. So when faced with that definition one might believe that a leader has qualities such as passionate, hard working, one that can influence and inspire others, etc. Then there is also the contradicting statement that it depends on situation and how the leader handles it. He or she doesn’t need those qualities as long as they are able to lead their country well. For example many would state that Hitler was not a good leader because he was a bad person, but in all actuality Hitler was very good leader that just did horrible things. This …show more content…
If people looked beyond what the leader did whether it was good or bad, and rather focused on how said leader handle his or her position then they would clearly understand what makes them a good leader or not. Ho Chi Minh, North Vietnam President and Mohammed Mossadegh, prime minister of Iran were powerful leaders that had many influence on their country, whether it was positive or negative during the 20th century. David Halberstam and Stephen Kinzer explain and compare how these leaders worked to try and gain their country’s independence and how the acted and performed as leaders for these countries. Ho was viewed, as a much needed symbol to his people. Halberstam describes, “Yet to the population he was always the symbol
Hitler. What do you think about when you hear that name? I think about a man who rose to power in Germany and made his best effort to create the perfect race by eliminating all bad factors in his way. He would do whatever it took to get there. No one really knows why Adolf hated people of the Jewish race. He grew up in Vienna, Austria where the mayor of the city disliked Jews and taught the townspeople to dislike them too. Adolf Hitler was a man who wanted to create a pure race, but he wasn’t even pure himself.
Have you ever heard the expression, “You are a product of your environment?” Children learn how to speak from their parents by mimicking them , walk and treat others in their family, neighborhood and community. When children live with parents that show affection, concern, kindness and patience, children can grow up feeling loved, respected and have self-confidence. Hitler’s father was very rigid, mean, verbally and physically abusive to him and his older brother. I think Hitlers childhood had a lot to do with how Adolf Hitler became the dictator that he was. Hitler was a man who was responsible for the killing of approximately six million Jews in the Holocaust. However, he was also misunderstood and neglected as a
Beliefs were tested, horrific modifications occurred, and more than 6 million people died because of Hitler. The leadership of Adolf Hitler was highly notable in negative ways. He gained control of Germany, even though he wasn’t born in Germany, while destroying the Weimar Republic. The weak economy caused the government to crash. Furthermore, Hitler conquered a large portion of Europe and started the biggest war in history. Some people would say that Hitler’s leadership was not significant. They would say this because the world would be where it is at now without Hitler.
Control is about manipulation. Once a leader comprehends that his subjects are not strong individual thinkers and rather ignorant masses who are basically a singular brain, he can understand that the best way to control them is through propaganda. Unfortunately for non- Aryans, Adolph Hitler rose to power in Germany with a plan to wrap people around his finger. How was Hitler able to capture the hearts of so many people? Through propaganda. Through a detailed, psychologically advanced, and twistingly genius comprehension of what the German people needed. In the middle of the grim, gray, and gloomy society in Germany, he stood out as someone who was young and enthusiastic--a man who was genuinely interested in the well being of his country.
In 1889, a seemingly normal boy was born in the small town of Braunau, Austria (Hoffman, 2017). This boy had pretty normal interests, didn’t have any mental issues, and got good grades for the most part. This boy was Adolf Hitler, and his parents, Alois and Klara Hitler (Klara Polzl at the time) had no idea what they had unleashed upon the world. (TOPIC SENTENCE)
“Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, which was on Easter Sunday. Adolf was one of four children but none of the other children lived past two years of age. After Adolf was born, his mom, Klara, had two more kids who did live to be older than two. Adolf’s mom, Klara, had been traumatized by the death of her first three children, causing her to go crazy”. Klara always worried about Adolf dying. Adolf also had two half brothers and sisters from his dad Alois Hitler. Alois Hitler was never a big part of Adolf’s life and he struggled with that. Adolf had a dream of being an artist, but that did not match the government job his dad wanted him to have. People say that Hitler was a mean man because of his dad and his early life. His dad would get drunk and go crazy on his family, this is not a way to grow up, and it certainly impacted Hitler and history. “When his father died Hitler roamed the streets dreaming of his future as an artist. When Hitler was 18, he tried to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, but was rejected twice this caused him a lot of frustration.” When Hitler was 25 he was part of the military and served in World War I, this allowed him to release some of the anger and frustration. “While in the army Hitler was wounded twice, once by gas. This is said to be the reason he went a little crazy. While in the war this is when he started to hate the Jews. Hitler said, while in the war that the Jews were everywhere and he began to hate them more and more as he saw
“Germany will either be a world power or will not be at all.” (Hitler 137) Hitler was driven by his hunger for power, causing the death of millions of innocent people. No one could have known the dramatic effect this man would soon have on the world.

Adolf Hitler fought in World War 1 in the Bavarian Army as Lance Corporal. The allies, Britain, France, Russia, Italy, and the United States were fighting against the central powers, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria. The central powers lost the war which Hitler was fighting on their side. This left Germany in great debt. To "punish" Germany for starting the war the allied powers came up with the Treaty of Versailles because they wanted it to be impossible for Germany to rebuild. This led to Germany in the Great depression-they were no longer receiving loans from the America, their exports were limited, millions of people were unemployed, and many people were dying from these poor conditions. This is when

The unforgiving cold wind blew throughout Himmel Street, making way for the entrance to Frau Diller’s shop. Inside, you could see Frau Diller standing inside her shop with cold dead eyes, listening to the Nazi propaganda on her new radio. She began to hail along with the radio as she rearranged the newspaper display with the latest printing of Der Stürmer, her favorite newspaper of the week. She dusted her portrait of Adolf Hitler, heiled to it, and began to open shop. She walked to the front of her store with her dark tightly fitted shoes and flipped the sign to ”Wir sind offen für Geschäfte” We’re open for business.

If I had the opportunity to have lunch with a historical person that made an impact in human history, I would like to interview Adolfo Hitler. Some people will conclude that I am crazy to interview with him. I like to question history and everything that is around me. II like to question history and everything that is around me. I would ask him if he could give me some facts that shape his behavior at an early age and why he killed Jewish if he had some friendship with them. Besides my personality, I have a Jewish background, and I want to know more about his insight.
