I am not saying the US is targeting gays or jews, but they might be targetting muslims in general. The methods of the Bush administration resembles that of Nazi Germany in many ways, especially how they get people to agree with the through propaganda, and how they have kept a whole nation ignorant about their REAL goals.
As I said, it is one thing to assert that Bush Administration officials do certain things that in your opinion are reflective of certain things that were done in Nazi Germany.
That is a big difference from asserting that Bush is equivalent to Hitler.
If Bush was equivalent to Hitler, the 10 million Muslims living in America would be in concentration camps being systematically exterminated. Elections in the US would be terminated, the Congress disanded. The ME would be nuked by now.
How can you possibly assert the two are equivalent?
Its scary to see from the outside how many Americans seem like brainwashed zoombies that only think about what their government "force3 them to think about. I have nothing else to compare this to than Nazi Germany.
I think the lesson of what happened to Germany, which went from a liberal democracy in the 20s to a totalitarian regime in the 30s, is a lesson that all nations would be wise to reflect upon. But the US is a long way from the Germany of the 1930s.
I just have no comprehension about how any decent human being can defend the Iraq war and its massive spending when perhaps as much as a billion people live in constant starvation, curable illnesses lack of water and malnutrition.
The money spent on Iraq would have been enough to deal with those problems for decades on a massive scale.
The fact that the US does not provide the degree of humanitarian foreign aid that it might is no basis for equating it to Nazi Germany.
Yet some people, mostly conservatives defend the Irar war and the US military regime and power. Injustice, suffering, murder, irresponsibility, massive human suffering, crippling of people, sudden deaths, invasions, blood and gore is what the US population is supporting.
I am saying supporting especially with the US relection of Bush in mind, what kind of direction is the US heading in anyways?
Not only do they defend it, they cheer it like a bunch of bloodthirsty wolfs.
I agree that the US action in Iraq was an is unwarranted and unjustified. However, that does not equate it to actions of Nazi Germany. Hitler made no pretenses about his military expantionist policies was to expand the greater German empire and the "master race." His military actions were effected to expand the German nation and to establish German polical dominance over all of Europe, and at the same time the extermination of "lesser" races to make room for the "superior" ones.
The American people as a whole had lived in relative isolation from terrorist attacks on their soil, and 9-11 was a huge shock to the American psyche. IMO there has been an over-reaction to the attack, which has been fueled by fear generated by the Administration as well as the media. Whether justified or not, that was a major factor in how Americans have reacted in the past few years. The US re-elected Bush reflected that, yet he still won by a very narrow margin, especially for an incumbent.
Two years later, in 2006, there was a huge backlash to the Administration's policies, and the American people put a new party in control of the legislature.
Instead of focusing on the actions of what is the minority supporting continued war in Iraq, look at the big picture.
