A question for you nerds
If the Prime Directive had existed during World War II, would we have left Europe and Hitler alone?

It doesn't apply.

It's a planetary directive not nationalistic.


Plus - it's fiction.

Enterprise, S2E8
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

No, adolf may have been a demented, unhinged tyrant with a wounded ego, he was still in fact a human. A sad liittle detestable human, but a human nonetheless.

Sidenote, if as a species, humans were able to travel vast distances through the cosmos, they unquestionably would be beyond such mindless, bitter animosity amongst themselves.
