Hitler: Substance to the views?

Some of his views had some groundings - that the Jews were heavily involved in the financial businesses. Given that Germany was so heavily indebted and unlikely to recover due to hyperinflation, he could use these simple facts to cleverly play on the minds of a largely disaffected and unhappy population. Hitler was a great many things; one of his more positive - if you can call it that - aspects was his incredible skill as an orator.

Orator in literature or speaches? Both?

Didn't the Nazi's get into power by saying they'd bring back German national pride after WWI. The Treaty of Versailles was issued at the end of WWI and the German population hated it, so the Nazi's said they would get rid of it if they came to power.

Haven't studied any of this in a while and I only got a D in my a-level though lol.

David Duke, that well known exponent of goodwill to mankind.
Just another perpetrator of crackpot ideas, if you think his book is a "revelation" then I'm sorry for you.

You obviously have not read his book or watched his videos. Keep you ignorant politcal opinions to yourself that others made for you. How about answering the OP's question? He has seen that the mainstream interpretation of WW2 does not make any sense when it is questioned by free thinkers.

Hitler was riding on a wave of German anger against the treaty of Versailles and made the German people feel powerful and full of pride again. They would have taken and accepted anything not to bear that shame again - and they did. Europe as a collective paid the price for it.

you didn't mention the fact he was a brilliant Orator.

Read something about some British soldiers who went to see him before the war. they couldn't understand a single thing he was saying, yet at the end of it they all for some reason stood up and applauded and were - like - 'Whoa .. he is definately something special'.

I have read and seen both and all his other offerings. He is off with the fairies and has nothing meaningful whatsoever to offer to any debate.

Neither have you to this one.

Mein Kampf is actually a pretty boring book with very little in the way of effective prose. If you think it's a good read then you probably think Uwe Boll movies are oscar-worthy stuff or something.

Nobody believes you. Duke deals in historical fact whomever it may offend. Refute it if you can but you cannot and you dare not. The saddest thing is that you will never read it because of the way you have been indoctrinated since your birth.

READ IT AND REFUTE IT.
