Reply #12: not a story -- HISTORY.

[DELUSIONAL]

The reason why we compare Fallujah with the Nazi slaughter is because the Nazis did such a great job of photographing and recording their atrocities.

We can see before photos of what Warsaw looked like and the after the Germans virtually destroyed the city. We also have eye witnesses alive today and we have films like the one I mention below (The Pianist) that show the systematic slaughter of the Jews (and Polish insurgents). This movie is a re-enactment of history. Roman Polanski was the director and he was 7 years old when he escaped the Warsaw ghetto. He walked past the dead bodies -- and was old before his time.

Hitler and the Nazis are part of our recent history -- and we can still access the photos and films.

The US (Nazi wannabes) did systematically enter all homes in a certain district and murdered every living thing they encountered. Photos exist of this slaughter.

It really pisses me off when some people want to set the Holocaust apart -- as if nothing like this ever happened before. Reading the Old Testament -- if this in fact true historically then the Jewish people engaged in their own brand of genocide of anyone who opposed them. Then the European Invaders into the "New World" murdered/slaughtered/starved/poisoned & gave diseased blankets to the Native Americans and reduced their numbers from an estimated 50 million in 1492 to barely half a million by 1900.

Genocide is Genocide -- and the practice of genocide is ancient and modern. One group of people who hold power are going to blame a weaker group and scapegoat that group and then justify the slaughter.

The German people have had to face up to what their nation did -- and at some point the US also must face up to what their "leader" has ordered done in Fallujah and throughout Iraq.

Right now the "evil seed" is running our nation -- but our guilt about what is being done in our name must be recognized. How will future generations look back on us?
