48 million Europeans wouldn't die, Medical textbooks would still be printed almost exclusively in German, Hitler mustaches would remain (at least somewhat) fashionable to this day and Israel would still be called Palestine.

Whoever says that one single event can't change the entire world hasn't read his history.
Funny.... you throw in a random event and then predict an entire sequence of events subsequent to that random event ... as if each event that followed could be predicted and wouldn't be equally random.

Hitler wasn't the only one who believed in Hitler and Hitlers views. One could just as easily argue that things could have been worse had Hitler died.
