Hitler meant to talk about WWI to emphasize the idea of Germany's loss and that they must regain their pride.

Last but not least, Logos is referring to an appeal to logic, by reasoning. The logo technique Hitler applied in his speeches was the “either-or” fallacy, which is known as a false dilemma that is logically fallacious. It happens under a circumstance in which a person makes a statement that presents only two possible options, where there are actually more than these two. This type of fallacy is often made by someone attempting to persuade someone else into believing that only two options exist. Hitler used this appeal to persuade the Germans that although some actions or behaviours were unethical, it was the only option, such as what Hitler claimed “Either the German people annihilate the Jews or the Jews will enslave them.”
