I guess the Nazi military leadership was unaware of the "kiss" concept, "keep it simple stupid". A freaking bomb with a primitive timer switch in a briefcase leaning on a 3 inch thick oak table? Obviously they couldn't pack enough explosives in a leather briefcase to blow up the whole building. Why not walk up to the maniac and put a bullet in his head and deal with the aftermath? The victors write the history books and we tend to romanticize the lame cowardly way the Nazi conspirators delt with the issue.
