Intelligence Profiling - Hitler

Intelligence Profiling: Hitler

The Nazi leader Adolf Hitler had two main enemies: the Jews and the Slavs.

While he managed to justify his hatred for these two groups under the Nazis' policy of striving for racial purity in the German Third Reich, it is widely believed that Hitler had more personal reasons for targeting his hatred on these two particular groups. In a recent psychological study, George Victor unearthed evidence that Hitler may have had reason to believe that he himself had Jewish blood.

It has already been established that Hitler had Czech ancestry, as well; thus, his racist policies have widely been understood as an extension of Hitler's pathological self-hatred - a self-hatred that would ultimately result in his suicide.

While Hitler largely abstained from sex in his early years, he was nevertheless obsessed with it. This obsession would surface in many of his political speeches, as well as his book Mein Kampf.

His sexuality could best be described as suppressed, as he enjoyed looking at naked women and would have his government scrutinize the sex lives of the Germans under the Third Reich. At the same time, Hitler had very old-fashioned ideas when it came to his behavior towards the opposite sex. He believed that women belonged in the home, and had no role in public life of the Reich. Their main role was to mother racially pure Aryan children.

If Hitler were to have removed himself to a German-speaking part of Argentina in order to pursue an art career rather than remain in Europe and become leader of the Third Reich, one can only assume that he would have limited his contacts to Argentineans of German descent. Hitler felt that Jews, Slavs, and other racial "undesirables" were polluting the purity of the German race. Add to that his repressed nature that surfaced in the form of traditional attitudes towards sex and procreation, and it seems readily apparent that he would attempt to ground his Argentinean art career among German-speaking "pure" Argentineans.

Intelligence Unit Memo Police Chief I.B. Friendly Incorporating Intelligence Unit into Department In modern law enforcement, the sophistication of modern criminal activity, particularly post-September 11th, causes a necessary paradigm shift for 21st century police departments.

In fact, in 2007, the National Strategy for Information

Intelligence Testing Intelligence and achievement are very different. Intelligence is a measure of one's aptitude, or ability, which is in essence a measure of potential. It is actually only a measure of potential in one skill area -- the cognitive. Intelligence testing is usually focused on things like problem solving and pattern recognition.

Intelligence factors in the Cuban Missile Crisis and the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
