Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#470 โ€“ James Holland: World War II, Hitler, Churchill, Stalin & Biggest Battles

Yeah. Because they're the superior people. There's no question that he glorified violence and war. You know, he's absolutely chomping at the bit. And in a way, I think he's a bit disappointed that in the 1930s, the conquests that he does undertake are also peaceful, you know. March 1948 goes straight into Austria. There's the Anschluss, you know, not a shot is fired.

There's the Angelus, you know, not a shot is fired.

#470 โ€“ James Holland: World War II, Hitler, Churchill, Stalin & Biggest Battles

You know, 1946 goes into the Rhineland, reconquers that, retakes that, over that from the occupying allies, not a shot is fired. He takes the Sudetenland, barely a shot is fired, and then goes into the rest of Czechoslovakia in March 1939, and again, barely a shot is fired. It's a bit disappointing. He wants to be tested. He wants to have the wartime triumph.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#470 โ€“ James Holland: World War II, Hitler, Churchill, Stalin & Biggest Battles

You can see him being frustrated about this in the Munich crisis in 1938. He wants a fight. He's absolutely spoiling for it. He's desperate to go in. He's all ready and gung-ho. He's built his Luftwaffe. He's got his Panzers now. his massive armed forces. You know, he wants to test them. He wants to get this show on the road and prove it. You know, he's an arch gambler, Hitler.
