1. WW2 will always be, and should be, interesting. Many of the best stories are based on WW2 and the holocaust. "Middle Earth" universe, "Harry Potter", "Lion King" and many more. One thing i'm not sure about is the symbolism of "The Hobbit". LOTR is based on WW2, so it seems intuative that "The Hobbit" is based on WW1. Bilbo must be jewish, like the other hobbits, and Gandalf is Churchill. But what does the other characters in "The Hobbit" symbolize?

2. You're saying that pure evil can exist only in fictional settings? I want to believe you're right, but people like Ted Bundy and the idiots from Columbine contradict this statement :-(. Many people who kill their own families can regert of doing so, but does their regrets worth anything? I know some people choose to be evil due to life-long misery. Like Dane from "The Final". You have a solid point with the PTSD corrupted soldiers. Hitler is also one of the PTSD corrupted soldier type, because he went through hell before becoming pure evil.

3. Some criminals get in jail and claim they regert about their actions. It's hard to tell the truly remorseful ones from the decoy apology type. Unfortunately you're right about all of those criminals who do what they see as the right thing, despite it's clearly wrong. But, just like in this wiki, one can be pure evil even without enjoying himself/herself. When you say Breivik didnt really hated his victim, you mean he killed all those people without sadism, or that he didnt hated the people as people and just killed them because he saw their whole kind as "they should all be destroyed"?

4. Interesting to hear Goring loved his wife for real and became his worst after losing her. But how did he got to a mental hospital? As far as i know, he was sane like you and me, just lack of effective empathy. I do believe it doesnt applies for Mengele, Himler and Eichmann though.

5. One of the insperations for the rodent Mengele from my story is Chaim Mordechaj Rumkowski, AKA the worst of the Judenrat and the human rat from Lodz. From what you know about him, would you consider him as extremist, or as pure evil?
