    I hope the poorer tribes can get better representation at the museum. I am happy that the program I mentioned from the Christian Church deals directly with the poorer tribes. I hope that their story is able to reach a wider audience.

    I don't like it and the DL laughs at it. I understand people use it, but many do in a slanderous manner.

    Why it's OK for his supporters to call him god king, but I am not allowed to?

    Not all his supporters do. I know better to call him that, I would hope you do too.

    :confused: I don't understand the fuss then. Yes I did call him god king, so what's the problem? You seem to contradict yourself.

    Still, the Nazis didn't want to take the Jew's land, they just wanted to wipe them off the face of the earth. I'm not saying what happened in North American wasn't wrong - it was. But it still wasn't on the level of systematic automated efficiency of killing of a people as an Ideology. What the Nazis did goes beyond genocide.

    It all starts with seeing people as less than human. Nazi's took it to another level, yes.

    Heres' an interesting perspective, well really uncomfortable perspective

    Air War = Barberism

    An exerpt:

    As the Israelis are rediscovering – though, by now, you'd think that military planners with half a brain wouldn't have to destroy a country to do so – it is impossible to "surgically" separate a movement and its supporters from the air. When you try, you invariably do the opposite; fusing them ever more closely, while creating an even larger, ever angrier base for the movement whose essence is, in any case, never literal geography, never simply a set of villages or bunkers or military supplies to be taken and destroyed.
