NO psychoanalysis of any SS and War criminal but outdated psychiatrical stubborn concepts of diagnosis

Psychjiatry made some progress since after war years and no psychiatrist of thies tilmes would have made a diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality!
Only a deeper psychoanalytical view can make a difference between a Neurotic-Normal (Oedipian) personality (Jean Bergeret's "Borderline and Perverse states" and an fully Apparently Normal perverse or Narcissistc person...

It does exist Partial (Sectorial) Delirium in an apparently perfect Normal person. A high ranked efficient Administration responsible and good father and husband can have a specific delirium about his "personality" as a reincarnation of some hero of the past....Bergeret signalized it in his book about " Normal and ill personality" ..I saw twice such sectorial delirium and one "Shared delirium" in an old couple both hospitalized when trespassing the social limits! How many people consider that matter of fact? Even psychiatrist just consider strong sorts of symptoms to agree for abnormality!? But do YOU consider an Industrialist like H.Ford as a "normal man" when reading his performances in politics and antisemitic delirium?
