Why was Albert Speer considered the 'Good Nazi'?

The most informative book that you can read on this subject was written by Speer himself and is titled . The principle reason that he is considered a good Nazi is his testimony at the Nurenberg war crimes trials. He claimed that he opposed slave labor,that he never knew about the mass murder of millions of Jews and that he countermanded Hitler's orders to destroy what was left of Germany rather than it fall into enemy hands. Since he was armaments minister and probably prolonged the war by excellent planning, he was given a long sentence and was 61 when released from a 20 year sentence. The contracdictions within Albert Speers own testomony are evidence that he was not the good Nazi. He said if Hitler ever had a friend it would have been Speer. But he claims to not have knowing anything about the final solution?

Was the battle of bulge successful for the Germans?

What is called the Battle of the Bulge in the United States was part of the German Ardennes Offensive of 1944. It was a last-gasp effort by the German Army to stave off defeat in the Western European Theater - its primary goal was the Belgian city of Antwerp, the major port from which Allied supplies were flooding onto the continent. It was hoped by that re-taking Antwerp, the Allied forces in Western Europe could be contained long enough to possibly negotiate a peace (or, alternately, allow for more time for Hitler's Superweapons (the various V-rockets and jet aircraft) to play a significant role).

While initially successful, mostly due to failures of Allied tactical planners to appreciate that a major German offensive was in the making, the German attack ultimately stalled due to lack of fuel. As the weather cleared a week or so after the battle began, Allied tactical aircraft ravaged stalled German units, and prevented the furthest penetrating German units from resupplying.

In the end, the offensive was a German failure, and a strategic Allied victory, as the German army lost most of its remaining quality units, and the Luftwaffe effectively ceased to exist. The Battle of the Bulge was the last significant German offensive of WW2.

Why did Great Britain not want to give israel to the Jews?

Because Palestine had been a British Mandate from 1918 to 1947. But after the second world war the British Mandate had become increasingly untenable with acts of terrorism by Jews committed against British workers including the terrible bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem by Jewish terrorists, which caused great anger back in the UK. So Britain withdrew from the Mandate.

The future of Palestine was then debated and voted on by the United Nations General Assembly in May 1948. Most countries in Europe including the Soviet Union and Soviet Bloc and all countries in America including the USA and Canada voted for Israel to become the State of Israel. But all Muslim states were opposed to this and because Britain had held the mandate the then British government under Prime Minister Attlee decided it had an obligation to be neutral. So the UK abstained in the UN vote and thus did not vote in support of giving Israel to the Jews.

What do Jews read from?

How did Adolf Hitler's father treat him?

He was not disinherited, no. However, Hitler and his father did not get along well. Alois Hitler was a very strict, short tempered man who worked in a job that was very militaristic (he was a customs inspector); he was also fairly old (nearly 52) when Adolf was born, and he had no interest in raising another child. Adolf chafed at this, and he and his father argued often.

However, Alois died suddenly in 1903, when Hitler was almost 14 years old, and Hitler inherited a portion of his father's pension.

Write a one page history of Germany as a schoolchild in Nazi Germany?

This is a set of directions and a statement . I suspect it is a history assignment and your teacher is trying to find out from you how well you understand what happened. If you would like some help or clues to help you with this we will help you, but we won't write it for you. A teacher gives an assignment like this to check for your understanding of the history/topic. I did this often instead of a test and in what a student wrote told me they understood what I taught.

What did Hitler aspire to create?

He painted pictures of people's houses. The allies used this as Propaganda, calling him a house painter, and naturally the public thought of painter and decorator. Not that being a decorator is bad, but it's not the occupation of a world leader/statesman so it minimized him in the public mind.
