Russia and Ukraine

[Leonardo17]

That’s a very Hitler-like characteristic. Hitler too believed in the invincibility of his army because of his secret magic rituals and a mystical belief system according to which his Reich was meant to live for a 1000 years.

Not really, no. Himmler was a pagan mystic, but Hitler didn't practice any magic rituals or crap like that.

   You seem to know about this issues more than I do. While the issue of Hitler’s involvement on Mystical belief systems is largely debated among historians, many important Nazi figures are known to be deep into this kind of stuff:

   I’m currently reading that this is another feature of people with megalomania or narcissistic personality types. They are said to like the idea of getting ahead of everyone else through diabolic / new type of technologies that will allow them to get ahead of everyone else. The obsession of Nazis with ancient religious artifacts portrayed in the Indiana Jones where thus far from being invented. So while this is an open debate, I believe that Hitler too was largely involved in this kind of stuff because it was a popular thing in that era. The 30’ was the golden age of many magical societies (In Europe and North America), all sort of parapsychological “research”, and famous mediums communicating with the dead. I just read that Nazis even tried to resurrect their dead pilots at some point.
 
   Back to megalomania: The real aim 1798 Mediterranean campaign of Napoleon was to open the pyramids of Egypt and discover ancient technologies that would allow him to take over the entire planet. That’s why he took all sorts of scientists with him to study the mysteries of ancient Egypt. In the end he didn’t get his wonder weapons. But he still found things like the Rosetta stone and other important findings that contributed to modern Egyptology a lot.
