  The Observer | International | Hitler was gay - and killed to hide it, book says
Eyewitness accounts from Hitler's former lovers, and historical documents that for the first time illuminate rumours that have circulated for over half a century, are disclosed in Hitler's Secret: The Double Life of a Dictator.
In 1915, the young Hitler was a dispatch rider at the front in France.
Hitler's service notes read that as a result of the love affair there was reluctance among senior officers to promote him.

Hitler felt he could be flmailed over this past, Machtan said, and this fear led to the bloody purge of many gay comrades during the “Night of the Long Knives” in 1934, including Ernst Roehm, the leader of the Nazis’ SA stormtroopers.
Hitler used this charisma to win the backing of groups such as the Freikorps (Free Corps) militia and the Nazi "brown shirts" who provided the muscle that aided his accession to power in the chaotic democracy of the Weimar Republic.
Machtan said that from 1930 Hitler felt that his past could be used against him and this was behind his decision in 1934 to have killed many former gay friends from his time in Munich, including Ernst Roehm, the leader of his storm troopers.

 The Gay Hitler Flap   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Throughout, Machtan emphasized that Hitler lived in men’s hotels (which early homosexual advocate Magnus Hirschfeld identified as hotbeds of homosexual activity), that all three men were close to their mothers, and that all were devotees of Wagner.
Yet, as with the early shots of shirtless, hairless buff Hitler Youth, the point is clear––the assumption that Hitler is gay has become the narrative default, notwithstanding Rotello’s flat statement that he is “not even convinced” that the theory is true.
Machtan located the earliest public expression of Hitler’s anti Semitism to a scandal that took hold in Germany between 1906 and 1909 resulting from the charges by Maximilian Harden, a Jewish journalist in Vienna, that Philipp, Prinz zu Eulenburg, a close confidante of the German kaiser, was gay.

He also tries to suggest that Kubizek and Hitler were homosexual lovers, when in fact, if you read the book written by Kubizek, you find this: For, in fact, this man had slipped Adolf a card without my noticing it, on which he had scribbled an invitation to visit him at the Hotel Kummer.
When ever Hitler would leave town he made Kubizek promise to watch her and report and write to him everything about her that was happening, just like a typical boy obsessed with a girl would do.
She and Hitler's niece both made suicide attempts (one of which succeeded) because of Hitler's controlling behavior, which at the same time included a severe lack of attention.

When Hitler came to power he used this law as a means of tracking down and punishing those homosexuals who, in the words of one victim, "had defended the Weimar Republic, and who had tried to forestall the Nazi threat" (ibid.:183).
Hitler feigned disgust and outrage about the homosexuality of the murdered SA leaders to justify himself to the German people; it was a tactic he had used previously to allay public suspicions about the sexual deviancy of his inner circle.
Hitler himself, of course, had been well aware of Roehm's sexual orientation from the earliest days of their long association....So strong was Roehm that the Wehrmacht [German Army High Command] was concerned that he might seize control of the army.

This documentary is based on a well researched book by a known (not gay) historian, who claims Hitler was gay, after dedicating a good part of his life to researching the claim.
Additionally, the arguments (pro and con) about Hitler's sexuality are very well told using cinema as a medium, especially when compared to a book as a medium for this debate.

He believes that the course—and the success—of Hitler's political career was shaped by his hidden homosexuality, and he traces the much-disputed origin of Hitler's anti-Semitism to the same source.
Hitler was still only a failed artist at this point, but Machtan argues that the incident left Hitler convinced that Jews threatened to expose hidden homosexuals like him.

At about the same time that The Hidden Hitler was published, a rumor began circulating that law enforcement was studying the possibility that the hijacking ringleader and some of his terrorist comrades were homosexual-- a rumor investigators have neither confirmed nor denied.
In Machtan's portrait, Hitler was perhaps so self-loathing and so traumatized by the fear of exposure that he'd do anything to prove he wasn't a homosexual, including, later, persecuting other gays and violently stopping anyone, straight or gay, who might expose him as he rose to power.

 Hitler homosexual.... The most self hating gay ever? - The CHUD.COM Message Boards
Hitler quit school at age 16 and in 1909 moved to Vienna, where he twice took and failed the Art Academy's entrance examination.
Hitler's rise largely was due to the two brilliant homosexuals who mentored and tutored him: Roehm, a notorious pederast and a contemporary, and Dietrich Eckart, 21 years his senior.
Another probable reason for Hitler's anti-Semitism is traditional Judaism's appreciation of women and its fierce opposition to homosexuality and the debasing of women.

Even before The Hidden Hitler was published in 2001, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation launched a blistering attack on Machtan, who is not gay but who, most critics agree, is not homophobic.
Similarly, on the Today show, Matt Lauer teased his interview with Machtan by saying that The Hidden Hitler "claims that Hitler was actually gay, and that his homosexuality was at the root of his evil." The book claims nothing of the kind.

By no means all of these potential witnesses died by Hitler's order or under suspicious circumstances, but the sheer number of the ones who did, particularly those cronies from Hitler's early years about which we know remarkably little, is staggering.
It can and is being argued that the absence of material on Hitler's past stands as proof of no particular thesis, let alone as proof of his homosexuality, and this is true (though there can be no doubt that Hitler was frantically trying to cover up something in his past).
It may be a failure of historical research that we can't place Hitler in anything resembling a normal relationship with a woman prior to Eva Braun.
