Trevor-Roper denied any dishonest motivation, explaining that he had been given certain assurances as to how the diaries had come into the possession of their "discoverer" and that these assurances had been wrong, prompting the satirical magazine Private Eye to nickname him Hugh Very-Ropey.
Am I missunderstanding the article or is it that all the letters are fake or at least the ones Roper received to translate as the article does not mention anything about a poor translation at all.
I am going to keep digging on this one.

I am only familiar with how he was dishonest about the translation in Hitlers table talk, the Hitler diaries is a completely different collection as I understand and not something I have studied at all. I would not doubt it however seeing as he had zero professional consideration with Hitlers table talk, once a professional hack........

He is still highly regarded as a historian, just because someone makes one monumental mistake does not mean everything thing he has done over the years is now bunk.

1Tim1:15-17
Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.Amen.
I agree 100% there is absolutely no need for a missrepresentation to solidify a case against Hitler being a Christian, anyone with half a brain could work out that he was not inline with the teachings of Christ.
What are you saying Daniel? Hitler's "Final Solution" isn't biblical?
John 5:24 24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

Don't mock it, there are some who would say if Hitler believed at some point then went on to commit all these atrocities, he is saved nonetheless.
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.
Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

I guess that would be true...as long as he was baptized in water.
