    I’m afraid I’m going to have to disagree with your thesis here. Many, many people who supported Hitler and Mussolini had been through WWI. Hitler himself was wounded in WWI.

      It was certainly not intended to be a description of how things must or always be. Simply how they often work, it is one factor that goes into a very complex equation.

      It is a large factor though. But not overriding or anything.
