One world's butcher is another world's hero.
Vince, what Kevin is trying to say is that maybe reading their writings would give you and idea of what motivated them politically. Was it maybe a break a few eggs to make an omlett (sp) situation that got out of control? Was it the needs of the many over time outweight the needs of the few right now? Just a bad miscalculation? If you only look at the result but don't even consider what led up to it then you have absolutly no understanding of the situation.
Yes, Hitler was a maniac. But, he was also a charasmatic genius who was able to take a country give it's people someone to blame for all their problems.
Maybe if you actually knew how Hitler was able to do what he did, and why, you would see that short of genocide, Bush is following the same path for very similar reasons.
I am sort of amused that there is a legitimate field of study that expains something so simple to understand that a degree should be unnecessary. Sheesh, it's pretty obvious that the only reason Americans learn English first or Germans learn German first or French learn French first is because it is what you are taught from birth.
I'm going to have to read up on it to find out how much more in depth these studies go.
