reference to stopping Hilter at Munich, making him out as kind of a history buff


I don't know if it is history, the movie was set right after WWII. The final scene in Godfather II was on Dec. 7, 1941.

ETA: I should have said it shows him into history and politics

Clemenza says to Michael, you got to stop these things at the begining, like the shoulda stopped Hitler at Munich. Now I realize that was contemporary for them, but he was using a current example in a general sense.
Hagen says to Pentangeli at the prison that you were always into politics, history,. I think that is clearly something he would have said to Clemenza. The scene from I establishes it imo.

Rude of the Germans to bomb Pearl Harbor on Vito's birthday.
