<Are you mental?>

Those who do not Beleive in the Official Mythology, are often accused of insanity. In the Soviet Union, dissidents were given drugs and lobotomies, to cure them of their anti-communism. Is that what you think should be done with me, since I don't Believe in the NeoCon Official Mythology? I just have a hard time believing in the Holy Ghost, angels, and Iraqi WMD circa 2002, in the absence of all tangible non-Faith-based evidence.

<Hitler couldn't have beat us, in the long run, either...>

That's debatable. Hitler's mistake was the same as Saddam's: impatience. Saddam has said, that his main mistake was invading Kuwait before he had nukes. If Hitler had continued the German nuclear weapons development program (much further advanced than the Japanese program), he could probably have begun WWII, in about 1945, by nuking Paris, Moscow, and Warsaw. He could have occupied the European Continent, and maybe England as well, within weeks. Would the U.S. have had the Manhattan Project, if we weren't at war? All conjecture, of course.
