Or if our reparations after ww1 didn't cripple the German people. Though I accept that we did propose cancelling those debts but asked the USA to cancel our debt too. We wouldn't do one without the other.
If I recall my history from school Germany did pay a fair amount of their reparations but largely from loans they later renaged on. And didn't Belgium occupy parts of Germany after the Germans missed a single payment.
Anyway my point is Hitler didn't happen in a German vacuum.
Not the point you were making, I know.
