Source B:
‘Hitler did not make demands. He announced that he was dissatisfied and then he waited for the compromises to pour into his lap, merely holding his hand out for more. Hitler did not know any foreign countries at first hand, he rarely listened to the reposts of his foreign minister and he never read the reports of his ambassadors. He judged foreign politicians by intuition and was convinced that their nerves would crumble before his. It was this accurate belief that brought Europe within sight of disaster.’
A.J.P. Taylor, The Origins of the Second World War (1961).

Whom does Source B mainly blame for the outbreak of the Second World War?

Respuesta :

Here is how it was explained to me. WW2 was blamed pretty much entirely in Hitler, yes obviously there were so many other factors, and decisions that made the total, destruction of everything, but everyone blames Hitler for the start of it all. In this passage though, it sounds like the blame is on the other political advisers, and his foreign minister. Like they were supposed to have pushed for more meetings, or tried to make Hitler see reason.

Hope that helps
