Was Hitler ever been posted on the front cover of Times magazine?

Question

Why?

Answer 1

Ja !!

TIME 's Person of the Year is not 'the nicest sweetest kindest' person of the Year but the Person deemed to have generated News & in some way made a great change of some sort. The Irony is that the 1930 Man of the Year was M Gandhi , twice during the decade Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the Cover Boy..... Tbe Decade that began with Gandi ended with A Hitler and then in 1939 Josef Stalin!!!

""""""""""--------------The man most responsible for this world tragedy is a moody, brooding, unprepossessing, 49-year-old Austrian-born ascetic with a Charlie Chaplin mustache. The son of an Austrian petty customs official, Adolf Hitler was raised as a spoiled child by a doting mother. Consistently failing to pass even the most elementary studies, he grew up a half-educated young man, untrained for any trade or profession, seemingly doomed to failure. Brilliant, charming, cosmopolitan Vienna he learned to loathe for what he called its Semitism; more to his liking was homogeneous Munich, his real home after 1912. To this man of no trade and few interests the Great War was a welcome event which gave him some purpose in life. Hitler took part in 48 engagements, won the German Iron Cross (first class), was wounded once and gassed once, was in a hospital when the Armistice of November 11, 1918 was declared.


His political career began in 1919 when he became Member No. 7 of the midget German Labor Party. Discovering his powers of oratory, Hitler soon became the party's leader, changed its name to the National Socialist German Labor Party, wrote is anti- Semitic, anti-democratic, authoritarian program. The party's first mass meeting took place in Munich in February 1920. The leader intended to participate in a monarchist attempt to seize power a month later; but for this abortive Putsch Fuhrer Hitler arrived too late. An even less successful National Socialist attempt—the famed Munich Beer Hall Putsch of 1923—provided the party with dead martyrs, landed Herr Hitler in jail. His incarceration at Landsberg Fortress gave him time to write the first volume of Mein Kampf, now a "must" on every German bookshelf. (Deputy Fuhrer Rudolf Hess helped write it. Imprisonment also gave Hitler time to perfect his tactics. Even before that time he got from his Communist opponents the idea of gangster-like party storm troopers; after this the principle of the small cell groups of devoted party workers.) ------------------"

""----------------------Joseph Stalin's actions in 1939, by contrast, were positive, surprising, world-shattering.


The signing in Moscow's Kremlin on the night of August 23-24 of the Nazi-Communist "Non-Aggression" Pact was a diplomatic demarche literally world-shattering. The actual signers were German Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop and Soviet Premier-Foreign Commissar Molotov, but Comrade Stalin was there in person to give it his smiling benediction, and no one doubted that it was primarily his doing. By it Germany broke through British-French "encirclement," freed herself from the necessity of fighting on two fronts at the same time. Without the Russian pact, German generals would certainly have been loath to go into military action. With it, World War II began.


From Russia's standpoint, the pact seemed at first a brilliant coup in the cynical game of power politics. It was expected that smart Joseph Stalin would lie low and let the Allies and the Germans fight it out to exhaustion, after which he would possibly pick up the pieces. But little by little, it began to appear that Comrade Stalin got something much more practical out of his deal.


— More than half of defeated Poland was handed over to him without a struggle.


— The three Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were quietly informed that hereafter they must look to Moscow rather than to Berlin. They all signed "mutual assistance" pacts making them virtual protectorates of the Soviet Union.


— Germany renounced any interest in Finland, thus giving the Russians carte blanche to move into that country—which they have been trying to do for the past four weeks.


— It is widely supposed that Germany agreed to recognize some Russian interests in the Balkans, most probably in Rumania's Bessarabia and in eastern Bulgaria and the Isthmus.


But if, in the jungle that is Europe today, the Man of 1939 gained large slices of territory out of his big deal, he also paid a big price for it. By the one stroke of sanctioning a Nazi war and by the later strokes of becoming a partner of Adolf Hitler in aggression, Joseph Stalin threw out of the window Soviet Russia's meticulously fostered reputation of a peace- loving, treaty-abiding nation. By the ruthless attack on Finland, he not only sacrificed the good will of thousands of people the world over sympathetic to the ideals of Socialism, he matched himself with Adolf Hitler as the world's most hated man.

Peace

Answer 2

I agree, it alternates between Kerry and Jordan, much like each other: both got 3 kids, troubled lives, big boobs, modelling jobs, advertising deals, love of self-promotion... Occasionaly they feature Victoria Beckham 'exclusives' but these are never actual interviews merely carefully selected quotes or other WAGS. The pictuers take up the whole page anyway so they don't actually have to say much.

Answer 3

Yes I believe he was on one of the covers in 1938 because he was Times Man of the Year. Due to the talks between England and France that Chamberlain so believed we had peace in our time.

Answer 4

Yes, he was Time's "Person of the Year" for 1938. He made the cover of Time five times.

Answer 5

Yes, he was "Man of the Year" during the 30s, though I'm not sure which year exactly.

Goes to show how blind people can be to someone's actions until it is too late.

*coughcoughBushcough*

Answer 6

I believe so, he was actually "Man of the Year", horrible to think about. I think it was 1938.

Answer 7

yup
