I'm really confused about the prase "at the whim of"! Anyone can explain it for me please?

A whim is any kind of thoughtless gesture or change of mind

A sandstorm can come up at almost any given moment and the calm desert is now a raging nightmare

At The Whim

A whim means fancy, or at the sudden decision of. If you take a whim to go skinny dipping, you'd do it without forethought. A hasty act.

Hitler's name is frequently cited by Christians as another atheist mass murderer, like Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao. This is a bit like that old Sesame Street Game "which of these things is like the other" All these men were megalolmaniacs who ruled with a cult of personality. All of them were responsible for millions of deaths. Hitler however, was a Catholic. He frequently cited god and bible quotes in his speeches and his writings. His persecution of the Jews was popular among Christians as the "Christ killers" they have harassed over the ages. The Catholic church harbored Nazis and helped some escape to South America after the war. Hitlers christianity was incidental to his being a mass murderer, as was Stalins atheism.
