6-20 In Search Of... Eva Braun (Part 1 of 2)

I wonder if he wore that outfit in bed.

This documentary repeats the myth that the effects of the July 20th 1944 attack left Hitler partially paralyzed. In truth, the results of that assassination attempt were purely superficial. The declining health of Hitler has been ascribed by experts to the effects of Dr. Morrell's drugs which were actually poisonous when administered in doses above the prescribed dosage - which they regularly were, and possibly to the effects of Parkinson's disease, though it never has been proved that he had it

Oh dear, what a shame that they chose notorious holocaust-denier David Irving as an "expert".

I bet this one won't get many repeats.

[rbilleaud]

@asubjectiveopinion I have done a great deal of research on David Irving's work and find him to be generally reliable. Throwing away all of his work solely on the basis of his holocaust denial (which is misnomer since he never denied that it took place - only its scale and who knew what and when) is foolish. I cannot see how his analysis of Eva Braun - which I believe to be essentially correct based on the work of other historians - is affected by whatever views he holds on the holocaust.

@rbilleaud

Apologist cunt.



[rbilleaud]

@asubjectiveopinion Not at all. Like any professional researcher should do, I read all available material and make my judgements based on facts rather than being swayed by emotional whims. It's my considered opinion that the vast majority of the information compiled by David Irving over the years is reliable. Like any other historian, part of what he puts forward is colored by personal biases, but then that is just as true of others, such as Trevor-Roper, Liddell Hart or Shirer.

[CristinaFernandez]

@asubjectiveopinion Totally agree, In Search Of should never have contacted this vicious Hitler apologist. What's worse is, In Search Of reflects that holocaust denying thug's whitewashed conclusion Hitler was a decent, upstanding guy who was betrayed by cowardly and faithless generals - another replay of the dolchstoss myth, a tried and true way of evading responsibility.

In reality, by the time of the bunker, the war was lost and the generals were right, and Hitler was a lunatic.

Love is blind. Too bad she fell in love with a monster. :(

[MushroomMountainGoat]

@schlimschlam1 uh, Cap AMerica is a fictional cartoon .

[jetpoweredgriffin]

@Walters78s

This was filmed about 1980.

She would have been 68.

It's plausible.

[Walters78s]

[SuperSFio]

Martin Bormann was a KGB AGENT

[asubjectiveopinion]

@SuperSFio

The KGB wasn't formed until 1954 conspiracy-tard.

[mchunch]

Poor Eva! i always wondered why she stayed with him if she was unhappy.

[johneunson]

@mchunch she was besotted with hitler. he didn't love her but kept her happy with promises and expensive gifts. she was not very bright and hitler used this.

[wisesatyr72]

if Hitler had his way he would sacrifice all Germans just to keep the war going

[r5t6y7u8]

David Irving is a pro-Nazi Holocaust-denier, FYI.

[scorzeny45]

very sexy aryan.

[docalfons]

An attractive lady? No. Just a bitch, a groupie without any conscience. But she had to pay for it, she only became 33 years old.

[MACGWEEDORE]

Hitler is dead and Eva is dead.

[jimmyhd1969]

@MACGWEEDORE And good riddance.

[Marleneagnes]

Great lady!

[DvHy7]

Eva Braun was a rather attractive woman.She just had the terrible luck of meeting and becoming involved with Hitler.This was one of the best eps. of "In Search Of",Leonard Nimoys 76-82 classic.

[iamdiaperman]

Could Hitler maintain an erection? I find this hard to believe ! My grandfather is russian, and he says Hitler didnt suicide. But was caught and killed by russians.
