Not a RACIST nutjob.  Any Godwalker is going to seem insane (or, if you
apply the standard of "danger to self or others," arguably BE insane) to a
more balanced personality.  But the real crux of the situation comes down
to, are the PCs willing to countenance throwing an entire continent into
violence convulsions because they're certain it's the way to make Hitler
merely mortal again?  Tim sez no -- would he say that even if this general
seemed like the best chance, and possibly the last?  I mean, what other
country is reasonably going to go on a conquest spree that rivals Germany
at the beginning of WWII?  What, the UNITED STATES?  Hell, we're not going
to invade Mexico -- we're spending millions building a wall to keep
Mexicans OUT.  Canada?  Why bother?  We can go up there to enjoy the
boundary waters and the cheap prescription medicine any time we want now.
