Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

You know how people who go back in time always try to kill Hitler? Well, he was already gone when I was a baby, but someone else would not be...
Hitler killed himself. Go back and kill Churchill.
He did, but it was after he'd already caused the death of millions.
Oh, I thought Hitler killed his body double, and fucked off to south america...
... The internet's misbehaving for me today. Websearches are refusing to provide me with the image purported to be Hitler, as an old man, completely bald, no moustache, in Argentina. All websearches are giving me are the CIA mock-ups of what they thought Hitler could have disguised himself to look like, and the "Adolf Schrittelmayor, Tunga, Colombia, 1954" one. ... Oh and an implausible grainy one, claimed to be him, with his dark skinned wife. There's a better one, looks just like him, much later than 1954, much higher quality image too, that I had intended to post here... instead you get this lame story about how I failed to find it in a timely manner.
The problem is, most of the likely targets are front-men puppets, and the puppet-masters hide in the shadows. Finding who to optimally eliminate (or otherwise redirect their life, without murder), to mend the world, is no easy task. It's murky at the "top".
