 i wrote I won't try and quote your post, it's too long, but obviously I'm aware that 1. the Nazis didn't attack Pearl Harbor-'Nazi invasion on the SU and attack on Pearl Harbor' were intended as discrete points, I should have explicitly said Japanese Attack on Pearl Harbor, 2. the existence of vichy france-it's a question of how much detail you include about the war itself in an intro about Hitler, 3. where the allies landed-they landed in 'western europe' before 1944 e.g. Italy-I was trying to distinguish from that. In terms of responsibility for death, that's something that needs to handled very carefully. I suppose it's acceptable to say Hitler was responsible for tens of millions of deaths from soldiers and civilians killed in the war, perhaps my edit mistakenly lost some of this meaning. When referring to the Holocaust, Hitler's responsibility needs to be handled more carefully. An earlier version of article this said 'Hitler directed the Holocaust', I was trying to distance from that kind of mistaken thinking, given recent historical research (e.g. more recent than Bullock/Trevor-Roper). Ian Kershaw's book 'The Nazi Dictatorship' deals with these kind of issues in detail. I was attempting to qualify Hitler's responsibility for the Holocaust, because it is not as simple as his responsibility for war-mongering. The current version of the article conflates the two somewhat, they're separate issues and the article should recognise that.
