I thought Saddam's Baath party was mirrored /modeled /created to be just like the Nazi's??

(google..... Ba'ath party Nazi )

The History channel had a 2 hour show about Nazi influence on the Arab world during WWII.

I'm a refugee from the Democratic Party.

What else could explain how blind the Main Stream Media is when it comes to evil?  Of course what should we expect from people who think killing unborn children is true "compassion?"  We swho see the truth should give thanks to God daily for the the gift of a sound mind.

It's clear this writer has only a superficial grasp of WWII history. Typical bubblehead who spouts for the left. No facts, just feelings.

Why does this SOB still have a job in America? 

 The sooner this paper goes out of business the better.  I'll bet it's a Hearst newspaper.

The writer has a point. He was not so mush as comparing our soldiers to Nazi's as he was comparing us to a dictatorial force imposing it's will on a population.  He even admits that the Nazi thing goes a little "far".  

There can be no doubt that Hollywood is trying to use "substitution" to drive home it's point. So they show people in conditions where they are oppressed and they show how people fight this oppression. Sooner or later it will dawn on some viewer that there must be Iraqis who are courageously defying what they see as an imperial force. That's what happens when you act without moral clarity. 

The problem with most conservatives, is that while many of us have bought the shifting rationales for invading Iraq, we somehow think that everyone else should as well.  

If several members of a local police force, combined with FBI, CIA, and a couple of other alphabetized security ops, told you that your neighbor was planning to FIREBOMB you, what would you do? Say, the neighbor had just returned from a prison stint of ten years, for killing another neighbor the same way! What would you do? Kill him?  Say this neighbors' the type who beats his wife and children and kicks his dog. What then? The security people tell you that they can't do anything because this man hasn't actually "done" anything, all they have is "chatter" from informants, many of whom are of questionable character. What to do?

Say you then, in an ode to self preservation, invade the guys home killing him and two of his children in the process. Subsequently you find out that the guy had no "FIREBOMBS" but you stay in his house with the stated purpose of "liberating" the rest of the guys family!

In the process of "liberating" them, you kill his Aunt, his nephew, several cousins and a godchild or three. When the rest of your neighbors complain and demand that you stop your actions, you say that it's for the good of the entire neighborhood! Then you're "shocked" that the Neighborhood disagrees.

 The above scenario is a "type" of the invasion of Iraq. I realize that countries have to take actions that are forbidden to individuals, it is simply an analogy. Something to get you to see how someone else, not necessarily someone "bad", views you.  

 It seems that a lot of conservatives bristle when the rest of the world or the other half of this country doesn't agree with the necessity of invading and killing people who posed NO ACTUAL THREAT to our existence. Que sorpresa!!

Most of these same "conservatives",  would pitch a fit if however, Russia invaded oh, say, GEORGIA! Hey, they have their reasons right? Who's to judge? Had Russia killed oh, say, fifty or SIXTY THOUSAND Georgians, some of these very same Iraq supporters would be demanding that someone be held for "War Crimes", wouldn't they? We really wouldn't care about Russia's "reasons" or how "reasonable", they seemed to Russia, would we? Did we? Hmmm. 

There are none so blind as they who will not see.  

This war is a disaster. It will go down in the annals of history as one of the worst blunders in the history of the world. What if Canada, whose silly atheistic liberals believe we are oppressing our population by PRAYING to Jesus, stages a coup, to "liberate" us from the Christian religion?  

You don't get to decide what type of government someone else has. You don't get to invade and kill thousands on a mistake and have everyone act as if it wasn't, a MISTAKE.

And if you look very closely at the results on the ground. The difference between this administration and any other dictatorial regime is increasingly negligible. Especially if you're the mother of a dead teen aged Iraqi who thought he should fight against the people who invaded HIS country. "Moral equivalency" isn't always bad, especially if it keeps you from killing the innocent needlessly.  

I await the avalanche of name calling.  

I have no doubt that Hollyweird tries to implant ideological messages in their movies, but the subliminal message I received during my viewing of Valkyrie was this... Bush was Hitler, and there needed to be an uprising of "patriotic" democrats to remove him (impeach, assassinate, etc) from power BEFORE his term ended, so that America would not be remembered as having allowed this evil dictator to run his course while standing by and doing nothing.  

Did anyone see the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still?   Other than the obvious "Greening" of the message and the obligatory portrayal of our military as "shoot first and ask questions later", thick-headed, cowboys,  they depicted the President and Vice President as cowards in hiding, leaving madam secretary to handle the crisis.  And even while hiding, the President went against all common sense and demanded a military strike against the alien's space ship while everyone else was begging for restraint.

When asked if he went to war with Iraq  to derail the impeachment vote:  “I don’t think any serious person would believe that any President would do such a thing." - President Clinton (Dec 1998).

When you are the most powerful country in the world other countries will despise you while other countries cheer you. That doesn’t bother me because I would expect that due to culture conflicts.

When our own media drops to the level of comparing the USA with Nazi Germany that is a disturbing sign. Not that our nation has dropped to that level, it hasn’t. The fact our media is that ignorant and will make such a farce for ratings alone while reader believe it is disturbing.

The USA is the world’s policeman. I do not expect that to change anytime soon…unless we go bankrupt. Which could be soon. But comparing a “policeman” to SS storm troopers is a bit of a stretch.

Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

That is the only way to describe such thinking, which is, unfortunately pervasive amongst many of the supposed intelligensia.

It seems often that they live in Bizzaro World rather than the reall world. It also seems as though they thoroughly do not understand the dangers in the world, and they don't seemed bothered by that fact. Their guilt, the guilt of living in a successful society, consumes them. It's all America's fault, and not that of the nefarious forces in the world.

Truly the definition of "Useful Idiots".

The next rants you hear from the crazy democrats and the Lame Stream Media will be that Hamas didn't attack their good frinds the Jews. They just had an excess of rockets and decided to share them "air mail' with their friends the Jews.

Old, Retired and glad of it.

No actually I'm a Nazi and you must be a Jew Mr. fancy shmancy film critic. Haven't done a lot of research yet as to whether Nazi's refused to go see movies produced and stopped reading newspapers written at home because most of them were unfavorable to the image of their country being put forth, but if they did, that would be the only thing I had in common with them.

 Now go pray to your higher power that the Government bails out your pathetic newspaper and Hollywood too Mr. cheeseeating film critic, else you may just be cutting my grass and polishing my jackboot's this summer to make enough scratch to stay out of the soup-kitchens and trust me, you don't want that.

History channel is running a pretty good "Valkyrie" piece. I thought it was well developed and true to what I already knew, no need to see the movie. Of course I pretty much refuse to see any movies these days.

This is typical of the trash written by the KC Star.
