Was Hitler an accident? a Mistake?

Does Prayer ask God to change God's Plan? If not, then why pray? It will happen if you pray or not.

The religions have all the excuses as they have been giving them for centuries. They themselves know that there's no man living in a cloud but they make a lot of money and gain power from getting people to believe that there is.

Not necessarily part of His plan, but something He allows. The Bible says that evil will increase until its true nature is revealed to all, on earth and in heaven alike.
God can bring wonderful good out of evil, but He seems to only do this when people pray for it.
In the case of Hitler, I'm sure God didn't want or support in any way all that evil and suffering, or even that Hitler would be tormented in hell for ever. But many amazing good things came as a result of Hitler:
Many Christians in Germany and occupied countries had their faith tested severely, sorting the wheat from the chaff; those who bravely died as martyrs will have a glorious place in heaven.
The creed of Fascism has been discredited, hopefully for all time.
The Jews have their homeland. (I have great sympathy for the Palestinians, by the way).
Wars between the big powers of Europe, which had gone on since the Roman Empire, are now a thing of the past, and the EU has been created to keep us united in peace.

Everything that happens was written and devised before our creation...so yeah, it's already planned to happen this way. It's part of the God's design.
However, if you're referring to sickness or disease, that's part of Satan's plan...and let God take the blame. That's were millions of people make their mistake. We have the power within us to change things, but most people would rather place blame on God because it's easier.

Hitler was a VESSEL used by Satan.When bad things happen,yes they are a part of God's plan because through trials and tribulation, you are perfected and made in His image.God does not MAKE bad things happen but he allows bad things to happen to test our faith in Him. You may be tested in all facets God feels He needs to strenghten you. And as the Bible states,'He will not put more on you than you are able to handle'. It is the devil who intends to break our faith in God and separate us from Him.It is the devil who sends ill will to us. However,he can not do more than God will allow.Remember God is in control regardless of how your trials look to you.Focus on Him, not the situation.

Absolutely not.
Bad things happen as a result of people doing bad things, and living in an imperfect world. God makes good things come of bad, (After the Holocaust, Israel was formed, etc.) but he doesn't make bad things happen.

"something bad" well humans think they know what that is. But alot of the times I wager we don't.
"bad" things can be part of human will, (like Hitler) or something that we see as bad (like a hurricane) but really can be good. (Because people help others, some turn to G-d, some die and go to heaven.
Hope I helped u

GOD ALLOWS THINGS TO HAPPEN. ARE THEY APART OF HIS PLAN? NO! HUMAN BEINGS HAVE A FREE WILL. EVIL PEOPLE WILL DO EVIL THINGS. (IE. TERRORISTS) THEY WILL TAKE OUT ANYONE IN ORDER TO GET WHAT THEY WANT. NO RESPECT FOR HUMAN LIFE EVEN THEIR OWN.
