Quote from I Missed Boat:
Additionally, the Christian abuses are in the past, and the Nazis used race (albeit it referring to Jews as a race), not religion, as the basis for their ideology and genocide. Moreover, Hitler also hated the Catholic church.
Meanwhile, intolerant Muslims have attempted or committed genocides, forced conversions and political dominance in countries around the modern world.
You are clearly a person with extensive detailed knowledge and excellent abilities to convey that knowledge clearly and thoroughly.
I have complete confidence that you yourself are far more capable of examining the historical facts and drawing the clear parallels between Hitler and Bush than I can ever hope to do.
What I can tell you is that the mentality and ideologies of these two psychopaths are identical. Just the names and scenery have been changed, but it's the same plot and the same dialogue.
Hitler: seized power by blowing up the German parliament, or whatever that building was, replacing the democratic government with his dictatorship. Hitler gained influence by writing his hateful book in prison.
Bush: seized power by vote tampering (what a
coincidence that the governor of
Florida happens to be Bush's little brother, huh?), thwarting the legitimate American democratic electoral process. Bush has stated more than once that he wished he were the dictator of America rather than the president. He should be writing a book (if he knew how to write) from prison, which is where he belongs along with all those who colluded in the serious treasonous act of swindling a presidential election.
Hitler: used jingoistic excessive patriotic flagwaving (swastika) in the name of national unity to keep Germans distracted and suppress any and all dissent. He called his world-dominance plan the "New Order" and rallied Germans with his xenophobic dogma about The Fatherland.
Bush: used jingoistic patriotic flagwaving (stars & stripes) in the name of national unity to keep Americans distracted and suppress any and all dissent. Both George Bush Sr and Jr have spoken about America's dominant role in the "New World Order", and Bush's xenophobic dogma is crystallized in his policies about The Homeland.
Hitler: used paranoid scapegoating to unify Germans through manufactured hatred. It's "Us" against "The Evil Ones". Hitler stirred up racial hatred of the Jews, the Gypsies, the Slavs. Called his alliance the Axis.
Bush: uses paranoid scapegoating to unify Americans through manufactured hatred. It's "Good vs. Evil". Bush stirs up cultural hatred of the Afghans, the Iraqis, the North Koreans. Calls them the Axis Of Evil.
Hitler: odd little mustache
Bush: Remington electric razor
Yeah, Bush hasn't killed 11 million people. "Only" a few thousand so far. But neither had Hitler in 1935, two years into his regime.
George is doing his darndest to follow in Adolf's footsteps though.

If you think Christian abuses are all in the past, what about Bosnia, what about Northern Ireland, as handy top-of-the-head examples. What about the political dominance and genocide of the Bosnian Moslems by the intolerant Christian Serbs? Surely your distaste for Moslems doesn't justify in your mind the situations where Moslems are the victims of genocide at the hands of Christians? Surely Milosevic's brutal genocide of Moslems and Croats was not somehow less horrible than Hitler's genocide of Jews and Gypsies, just because the ethnicity and numbers of the victims were not identical.
Such inappropriate argument would reflect poorly on you.
