<<You think if the US and Europe stopped selling weapons to 3rd-worlders, world peace would result? >> < As long as we have people like you...we'll be making people like Saddam.> Total evasion again, I see. Circa 1937, Germany was a "democracy". Dear boy, you really should check your facts. Adolph had been Fuehrer and absolute dictator of Germany for four years by 1937. There was not even a pretense that Germany was a democracy in 1937. Hitler now showed his contempt for the rule of law by turning the decree of February 28th against those states where significant opposition still existed. Using the argument that local authorities were unable to maintain order, which was in the main being disrupted by drunken brownshirts and SS members, the government replaced the legally constituted governments of Wurttemburg, Baden, Bremen, Hamburg, Lubeck, Saxony, Hessen and Bavaria. Soon, with the support of the Center, Catholic and Bavarian Peoples Parties, the Nazis gained the passage of the Enabling Act, and Adolf Hitler on the afternoon of March 23rd, became the supreme dictator of Germany, free from any restraint from his cabinet or the aged President Hindenburg and free to mold Germany into the nightmare state of his darkest dreams. worldatwar.net
