Plus rep if I could I was wrong, they didn't invent it=he did, but I didn't exactly make up the connection just had the facts wrong, It was byer that marketed and sole heroin to the public.
From Wiki Heroin=In 1895, the German drug company Bayer marketed diacetylmorphine as an over the counter drug under the trademark name Heroin.[10] The name was derived from the Greek word "Heros" because of its perceived "heroic" effects upon a user.[10] It was chiefly developed as a morphine substitute for cough suppressants that did not have morphine's addictive side-effects. Morphine at the time was a popular recreational drug, and Bayer wished to find a similar but non-addictive substitute to market.[11] However, contrary to Bayer's advertising as a "non-addictive morphine substitute," Heroin would soon have one of the highest rates of dependence amongst its users.[12]

Oh snap on second thought....I was right Bayre did invent Heroin, Wright had been the first to make the drug diacetylmorphine, but it was not Heroin.until Bayre got involved. Heroin was theirs and a trademark name like Coca Cola.

The drug that is in Heroin. Heroin is Diacetylmorphine. I know this for a fact. The acetylated form of Morphine. There is no IN Heroin. Perhaps they marketed it under the trade name Heroin at the time, like Alprozolam is known as Xanax. However, over time it was genericized. Like Yo-yo and Zipper.

I cleaned up my post so it made more sense. Yeah Heroin was the Coca Cola of Diacetylmorphine.

There is no doubt, in anyones mind, that Hitler was an effective leader.

OK. I suppose you could say at the time the NAME Heroin was their intellectual property, but they didn't invent the drug.

How do you think Hitler would handle modern international intellectual property violations, bootlegging merchandise?

I do not believe your accusations that Hitler was a Vegetarian, I think people just said that to hurt his image and make him seem crazy.
that's where it gets interesting, there is the propaganda legacy(ours actually), that Hitler was trying to conquer the worldThere wouldn't be any INTERNATIONAL if Hitler had his way.
that didn't seem to be his plan, he wanted to conquer Russia(or USSR, he hated russians though), but when he went through Poland, UK and France declared war on him
now what he would have done after conquering Russia, that we will never know

Drang nach Osten. That's very true. But Mein Kempfe is very explicit in his wish to have "Mastery of all the world".

It's funny how a lot of the stuff people put on him was going on in a lot of places and was pretty mainstream. A lot of the scientific research they did was based on American work. Check out Eugenics, we were sterilising people and giving them labotomys the germans thought it was great.
