I'm working on getting my viewpoint balanced

Well I am glad some progress is finally being made on your part -g-

I can't find the reference right now, but Hitler did admit to someone that the killing of the Jews was wrong, it was just he could not do anything about it while 70,000 Germans were being lost per month on the Eastern front.

Stalin's faction was as altruistic as Greenpeace who are as wicked as the Rwandan Hutu genocidal faction.

Funny you mentioned that. I have a sister who was a senior person in Greenpeace for a while. Yes nutballs can exist anywhere, some of them have the means to cause problems, others don't. Castro wanted to nuke the USA during the Cuban crisis and it was only a real commie called Khrushchev who made sure he didn't.

Hi Maurice Winn; Re those nasty IRA types, and the wisdom of sending soldiers into a guerilla action:

THE ARMAGH SNIPER

In South Armagh there was a man who had a long-range gun
He said I'll show them Army boys there's nowhere they can run
He was the South Armagh sniper
He'd pick a spot and wait the whole day through
Until a brit patrol came into view

The Armagh sniper he never missed his mark
He was lethal in the daytime and deadly in the dark
If he gets you in his sights you'd better say your prayers
So British troops go home or else beware

Soon his reputation spread through Ulster like wildfire
The list of British casualties just kept on getting higher
It was the South Armagh sniper he made the British forces think again
About wandering at night through Crossmaglen

The Armagh sniper the brits were terrified
They could never pin him down no matter how they tried
If he gets you in his sights he'll make widows of your wives
So brits go home while you still have your lives

In London and in Dublin they pretend to speak of peace
They say give us your weapons and we'll make this bloodshed cease
But the south Armagh sniper he's heard their lies and double-talk before
He won't be fooled or cheated anymore

The Armagh sniper he hasn't gone away
His rifles oiled and loaded he's just waiting for the day
So if the British government should break their word well then
The sniper will go back to work again
I'm a-comin back boys
