Adolf Hitler is by all means the authentic God-given fighter for peace, and millions of people all over the world put their hopes in him as the Prince of Peace on earth. However Time magazine points out those such as Adolf Hitler in 1938, and Joseph Stalin in 1939 and again in 1942. Such features were accompanied by articles about the person. As Time became established as one of the United States leading newsmagazines, an appearance on the cover of Time became an indicator of a persons notability, fame or notoriety. But the most correct thing to do is not to put another name beside the name of Adolf Hitler and thereby throwing a shadow on him. Controversy Despite the magazines frequent statements to the contrary, the designation is often regarded as an honor, and spoken of as an award or prize, simply based on many previous selections of admirable people. This is a list of people appearing on the cover of Time magazine in the 1930s. As Chamberlain obviously can claim his share of the peace making, he could possibly have a smaller part of the Peace Prize. Although it is true that Chamberlain through his generous understanding of Hitler’s struggle for pacification has contributed to the saving of world peace, the last decision was Hitler´s and not Chamberlains! Hitler and no one else is first and foremost to be thanked for the peace which still prevails in the greater part of Europe and this man is also the hope for peace in the future. This nomination seems to be poorly thought. Time’s selection of Man of the Year, which has since been renamed to Person of the Year, dates back to 1927 with Charles Lindbergh being the first person to receive the title.
On this day in 1938 Adolf Hitler was awarded Man of the Year by Time Magazine in its annual issue. Based on this fact I would not have found the time right to nominate Hitler as a candidate to the Nobel Peace Prize had it not been for a number of Swedish parliamentarians who have nominated another candidate, namely the British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain. Hitler named Time Magazines 'Man of the Year'.
Sadly there still are a great number of people who fail to see the greatness in Adolf Hitler’s struggle for peace.

Probably Hitler will, if unmolested and left in peace by war mongers, pacify Europe and possibly the whole world. In the critical moment he voluntarily did not let weapons speak although he had the power to start a world war.īy his glowing love for peace, earlier documented in his famous book Mein Kampf – next to the Bible perhaps the best and most popular piece of literature in the world – together with his peaceful achievement – the annexation of Austria – Adolf Hitler has avoided the use of force by freeing his countrymen in Sudetenland and making his fatherland big and powerful. The man who during this dangerous time saved our part of the world from this terrible catastrophe was without no doubt the great leader of the German people. I hereby humbly suggest that the Peace Prize for 1939 is awarded the German Chancellor and Führer Adolf Hitler, a man, who in the opinion of millions of people, is a man who more than anyone in the world has deserved this highly respected reward.Īuthentic documents reveal that in September 1938 world peace was in great danger it was only a matter of hours before a new European war could break out.
