The appeals court rejected a complaint by a Jewish man, who argued that the bell was 'a mockery and ridicule of the victims of Hitler's terror'
A German appeals court has rejected the complaint of a Jewish man against a town's decision to allow a bell dedicated to Adolf Hitler to continue to hang in a church tower.
The Koblenz state court on Wednesday upheld a lower court's rejection of the complaint from the unidentified relative of Holocaust survivors, who argued the bell was a "mockery and ridicule of the victims of Hitler's terror."
The Herxheim am Berg council voted last year to preserve the bell, which carries the inscription "Everything for the Fatherland - Adolf Hitler" above a swastika. It also announced plans to place an explanatory plaque nearby in the hope of sparking dialogue about violence and injustice.
that a bunch of losers with no track record of success would still idolize the biggest loser in history 74 years after he LOST

I guess it's understandable that certain people would be attracted to Hitler, because his epic historic inabilities and massive failure symbolize all of the collective inabilities and laughable failures that his admirers have attained in their weak and overlooked lives.
the only thing that they've ever achieved was failure, so it's not like they are going to look up to anybody who actually succeeded
Robert Stewart
If Hitler had been born with both testicles, and he hadn't allowed the Russians to beat his ass like a little old lady, then he would've been a winner.
And his victory would remind his followers of their failures and their inferiority….
Thank God he was a loser, or you guys would have nobody to idolize
