True business is business all around the world, but mainly after world war two the western world were looking to containt the communist revolution in russia ( because communism and capitalism are oposites ) and the made some initial friendships with Germany. Hitler like wise did not piss off any of the world power until he had what he needed from them, taking advatage of their desrie for piece. regardless Hitler rose to power because of the dire situation in Germany during the great depression, once in power he reorganized the gov't and keep taking land until he enfuriated the allies. likewise the allies ignored Hitler until it was too late because the were still stunt from the last war.
now concerning America being a police state, it is true, America is the sole police state since the fall of the USSR because it is the only country powerful enough to intervine anywhere ( specially with USSR out of the picture ), I guess with great power comes great reposibility and corruption.
Last thing anything that the US does is centered around money ( A side effect of capitalism ) every war the country has had, has it monetary value. Those in power are just taking advantage of this inheret need and making money off it. And the ironic thing is that they are actually making the country more powerful because war pushes the advacement of this nation ( war is one of the biggest industries in the US and debt is the biggest source of income in the nation ). It may not benefit the public but the American goverment is very strong and as a nation there is no question that what ever it is doing it is working because there is no country that could stand against it ( well maybe Russia, but that becasue it has a lot of Nukes and it would be a tie any how ).
