Gotta be really careful when suggesting assassination as a solution. Killing might be understandable in certain situations (eg. distressed battered wife kills husband) but is rarely justifiable. State sponsored killings are even less desirable since states/nations should set high moral standards for citizens to live up to.

In the case of Hitler, that would be a particularly dangerous historical thread to unravel; some of his crazier decisions probably lost the war for the Nazis.

Moral complexities should keep assassination in the realm of debate late into the night rather than the taking of lives.
