Albert, Re: Tell me which side reminds you of Hitler now?

I think these Nazi comparisons lead to nothing. And I apologize for making one on this thread myself. I just were (sincerely) shocked when reading some of Z's posts (I have to admit that I don't follow this thread regularly). Every reasonable person should IMO understand that drastic military interventions (like US invading Arabia) can't be a solution. They would only make matters much worse. And I can understand why some people develop hatred against the US with ideas and thinking (that includes the "We are the best in the world" part) like these.

Regarding the mid east conflict I don't think there's an easy solution. But IMO both the recent intervention of the US and the peace proposal from Saudi Arabia are steps in the right direction.

Kuwait is joining against west, here is no surprise.
Arabs are uniting behind terrorists and arafat (Hitlers unification of Germany?)

Shall I go on?
Tell me which side reminds you of Hitler now?


Albert, I think it might help to reread Z's post. I think Andreas was trying to note the similarities between Z's comments and the justifications Hitler gave for invading other countries.

There is no question that some of the Arab countries are operating in bad faith. However, I think its important that we don't mimic their behavior.
