Was Hitler's homosexuality Nazism's best-kept secret?

Was Hitler's homosexuality Nazism's best-kept secret? . - fair comment - The Hidden Hitler - book review
Adolf Hitler's homosexuality has been demonstrated beyond question by German historian Lothar Machtan's massively researched new book, The Hidden Hitler, ...
****************
Having read The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the Nazi Party twice, and hearing one of the co-authors, Kevin Abrams, lecture in Jerusalem on the subject, I believe Hitler was not a homosexual but that his glorification of men (in the pagan Greek and Roman spirit) appealed to homosexuals.

Regardless, his lust is in the dust.

It really takes a special kind of ignorance of human nature to imagine such simplistic cause-effect relationships between sexual orientation and ideology as those presented in the article. If this person is so keen to perform such astounding leaps of logic as to argue that the atrocities of Hitler must have been directly caused by his supposed homosexuality, how is it that he fails to see any connection between heterosexuality and the murderous zeal of heterosexual rulers? Needless to say, the fact that homosexuals were also involved in the anti-Nazi resistance movement doesn't fit the simplistic picture they want to paint about homosexuality either.
