Letter: Why we had to finish Hitler
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.WHAT A pity we didn't have John Charmley with us in 1939] He could have warned of the economic and political cost of war with Hitler ('What if Churchill had sued for peace in 1941?', 10 January). His advice might have preserved our wealth and Empire. Even better, it might have secured contracts for building gas chambers throughout the Nazi world and support for our atom bomb development until, combined with Nazi rocketry, we jointly subjugated the United States - Hitler's 'second Israel'.
Instead, we decided not to watch nation after nation being subjected to crimes already inflicted on the Germans.
