i was joking but actually there is a rumor that hitler was one-quarter jewish from one of his grandfathers....there is some evidence to support that too...because after hitler came to power in Germany and annexed Austria..it came to light in certain family records about his grandfather..ppl began to visit his hometown in Austria as some sort of tourist attraction but the Nazis used it for target practice for Artillery batteries.....basically wiping it off the map so no one could ever question his geneaology again
