I said that it would get the benefit of the doubt, but that I hoped to elicit discussion. Anyway, I am talking about DeGaulle and Franco, for example...

(Although Lather would argue that Nazism had its constructive side, in that it elicited anti-Nazi responses.) That was part of my argument. Another was the actual positive contributions that came out of Nazi Germany's high management. Blitzkrieg and technowar were concepts pioneered and dazzlingly field-proven by the Nazi military under Hitler's close management. USA military leaders ate it up with a spoon. From Pearl Harbor onward - US warmaking philosophy has embraced blitzkrieg and technowar to a greater extent than any other nation on Earth. Compare and contrast with Russian (Soviet) military doctrine, or even more extremely with Chinese.
