sly, wily, clever, without any true culture, a sponger, a maggot, eternal
blood suckers, repulsive, unscrupulous, monsters, foreign, menace, bloodthirsty,

Adolph Hitler and his Nazi propaganda
machine were masters at mass demonstrations of
pomp and ceremony. With promises of
grandeur complete with a back drop of the past years’ miseries, it is fair
to wonder how the German people could have ever resisted the lure of Adolph Hitler.
