World War II had a different story in Harry Potter, and it’s a bit clearer in MoR. It was sparked by Grindlewald’s desire to have dominion over the muggles—the muggle war was just a reflection of the wizarding war going on at the same time. Grindlewald was the real power in Germany, and Hitler just a pawn. The reason Dumbledore couldn’t take down Grindlewald until the war was over, was that Hitler was fueling Grindlewald’s power using dark rituals involving the blood sacrifice of millions of muggles.
I’m sorry. I don’t understand what you’re suggesting. Please say more about your point.

Yeah, that is one of the holes in this thing.
Riddle probably got his idea to exchange heroism for power from somewhere else.
