167. Information And Acknowledgement Of Your Foe's True Nature
Edited on Wed Dec-01-04 05:52 PM by Beetwasher
is the first step in fighting them effectively. If you can't acknowledge the true nature of your enemy, how can you even begin to think of defeating them? They are fascists and they share some disturbing similarities with ALL fascists but specifically the Nazi's, including the fact that Bush's grandfather helped finance the Nazi's.

Sorry, but your one vague example about Italy is ridiculous. I gave you a list of very specific things, you give me one vague example. Who says that the current fascists are emulating Italy's corporate merger and not Germany's? This is true because you say so? They both did this and it is but one (albeit important) aspect of fascism that is currently being implemented and our current regime is identical to NEITHER German or Italian fascists. You then ignore my other VERY specific examples that are NOT necessarily general to EVERY fascist regime but are eerily similar in the US and Germany but NOT Italy.

Reichstag/9/11, Invasion of Poland/Iraq, Scapegoating and stripping rights from ethnics, gays etc., demonization/dehumanization of opponents, camps for undesirables (Gitmo) etc.

You think it's just going to stop there?

The reason the Nazi's were the most successful and dangerous fascists is because they had the largest economy and military. Sound familiar?
