*[http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Adolf_Hitler Adolf Hitler] was kind and caring towards animals (including his dog Blondi, who he was very upset to have killed, but did so because he feared she would be tortured by the Russians if caught) and was also a vegetarian for ethical reasons. He outlawed vivisection on live animals and championed animal rights. Depsite his obsessive hatred for Jews, he actually gave preferential treatment to some of their race; One example of this was Emil Maurice, one of Hitler’s chauffeurs and a founding officer of the SS. Hitler had been friends with Maurice since 1919, but in 1935 S.S. Commander Heinrich Himmler pushed to expel Maurice and his family from the S.S. after he discovered that his great-grandfather was Jewish. S.S. members had to prove their family’s racial purity history back to at least 1750, but Hitler made an exception for his old friend (much to Himmler’s annoyance) and allowed him to stay. There are also two examples of Hitler protecting men who were considered Jews under Jewish law. Hitler’s commanding officer during WWI was Ernst Hess and although he was raised a Protestant his mother was Jewish. Deemed a ‘full-blooded Jew’, Hitler afforded Hess some concessions up until 1941, when he was sent to the concentration camp in Milbertshofen for hard labor. Although it’s not known to what extent Hitler personally saw to Hess’ protection before he was sent to the camp, the Fuhrer definitely intervened in the case of the Jewish doctor Eduard Bloch. Bloch had been Hitler’s physician when he was a young boy, and he attended to his mother when she was dying of breast cancer. As the Hitler family had little money to spare, Bloch had charged his treatment at a reduced rate, and even refused to take any money at all on some occasions. Hitler remembered this act of kindness for years to come and letters written to Bloch from 1937 reveal that Hitler referred to the doctor as an "Edeljude" (noble Jew). Bloch reached out to Hitler in 1938 when his medical practice was shut down, and he was consequently given special protection by the Gestapo. Bloch and his wife remained undisturbed until they were able to successfully complete an emigration request to the United States in 1940 | *[http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Adolf_Hitler Adolf Hitler] was kind and caring towards animals (including his dog Blondi, who he was very upset to have killed, but did so because he feared she would be tortured by the Russians if caught) and was also a vegetarian for ethical reasons.

*Hitler's chief ally, [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Benito_Mussolini Benito Mussolini], appointed Jews to government jobs before he became more of a puppet as the war dragged on and accepted a sword from an Algerian leader, at least showing a facade of respect for local culture despite his wishes for a new Roman Empire.

When [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Adolf_Hitler Hitler] began the extermination of the Jews, Mussolini turned Italian-occupied Europe into a safe haven for Jews, although anti-Jewish laws were in place, he refused to deport them to concentration camps.
