"...One final point Islam and Nazism share many things they are both totalitarian and fascist human constructs and they are both religions and yes Nazism fits in the definition of what is really a religion and Hitler was the prophet of Nazism...."

But Nazism did not dare to suggest that it would be the philosophy of choice in the 'afterlife' as well.... and offered no rewards there - as everything was for the here and now and the future of the glorious Reich und das deutsche Volk. So in this respect, Islam is far more insidious as there is no tme off - and its insane philosophy attempts to cover every aspect of existence in true totalitarian fashion.

Myth, by the way, the Wehrmacht was just the regular German armed forces , many of them just un-noteworthy Catholic or Lutheran city dwellers. Not all people in the armed forces were Nazis by any means. The smaller military and paramilitary groups - the SA (Sturmabteilung) and SS (Schuztstaffel) were died in the wool nazis though.
