Actually the Germans did not think that the Enigma could not be broken, in fact they made many changes to the machine and the procedures for its use during the war to make it harder to break, just in case the enemy was making any progress at breaking it. However they did make the mistake of assuming that its encryption algorithm had no major weaknesses (the Poles and British found several) and that the very high number of combinations possible on the machine would make any cryptanalytic attack even if successful take so long that the information obtained would have no military value by the time a message was deciphered by the enemy (the Poles and British and Americans built large high speed parallel electromechanical machines called Bombes that automated this and could try hundreds of combinations per minute to reduce this time). The British also discovered that in practice many German Army Enigma operators frequently deliberately violated the official operating procedures, making their messages nearly trivial to break in some cases! German Navy Enigma operators were never allowed to violate official operating procedures, making their slightly different Enigma machine harder to break. Also even when the Navy Enigma was broken all you got was codewords which were gibberish without the current Navy codebook, making it necessary for the British to capture one every time the Germans replaced their codebook with a new version, until then no Navy Enigma messages could be read even when they had been broken.

Why did Hitler wanted to capture vast areas of land for Germany?
He believed that he had to give the Germans "space to live."
What did Hitler think of Germans?
Well, before second World War, many Germans were very poor, due to world war 1. Hitler invented many logical, good things in Germany. He also gave the Germans their proudness (haha new word) of Germany back, which they eventually lost again, which hasn't come back so far. Many people looked up to him, and believed him, when he told everybody stuff like the need of a second war. A lot of people started to stop think themselves and thought of him as their hero. Others didn't like him, but understood they could not easily survive, without worshipping him. Today, most of the Germans are ashamed, and extremely sensitive about anything reminding them of solidarity to their land. This is only now coming back, with sport teams and that stuff
How long did America wait to join the Allies during World War 2?

Do Germans regret World War 2?
I think that it depends on who you talk to. Some Germans regret losing WW2 and some might think that it was terrible. I think in the whole, most Germans regret WW2 because most Germans during WW2 didn't like Hitler's decisions.
