I don't believe people act the way they do based on one moral framework or another, nor that they have as many choices anyway. I'm not even sure Hitler was too exceptional, beyond his position of power. I think most people act impulsively most of the time, and that sometimes their actions can be retroactively justified.
As another example, I don't think the perpetrators of the rape of Nanking were exceptional men; I think most of them were ordinary men in an exceptional situation. If that's not the case, then I can't reconcile that with how many pillages have happened throughout history.
