10Bears: Fascinating truly... Miko tells us that only Hitler’s private un-recorded conversations show the real Hitler. Where does that come from? Who gives you the right to put crap into my mouth? Did I ever mentioned his
private un-recorded conversations? I thought any person who is interested in Hitler and not an ignorant dolt could go to Amazon, punch in his name and get
Hitler's TableTalk - 800 pages hardcover of his nightly conversations with close friends and secretaries recoded carefully by two stenographers - it is commonly known that practically every word of his was recorded and those records must be somewhere, right?. I was looking for them for a while (in English) and in October 2000 that one finally came out.
Also, "Mein Kampf" while not private is clearly not directed towards general public but towards his party comrades as a action manual. Hitler gives advice that he expect to really work - so there is a minimum of propaganda there. If german people in 30s really read the "most published" book that everyone owned, they would have seen what he realy thinks of them and what his speeches are worth - he is making absolutely no secret there.
But no, you could not be bothered to look or ask me where did I get my info - you just assumed I make stuff up.
By the way - I do oppose Iraqi invason and do find a lot of the analogies with european history compelling. While I do not believe Bush and republicans evil, I consider them misguided.
Another by the way - I do not make a claim that Hitler was or was not an atheist - just that the autor has no clue about Hitler because he is using the source that Hitler himself admitted as mostly lies and propaganda.
As for the author - he is obviously an anti-cristian socialist and any one with half a brain will see it from this writing - he attempts to disguise it but very thinly:
Do not believe that Hussein is republican because his guard is called Republican Guard - everything republican is good and pure and never makes war and Hussein is Evil! He cannot be a republican! (By the way, he is still preferable to our republicans which are really nazis - let's keep Hussein and get rid of Bush instead!)
Do not believe that Hitler was a socialist just because his party was called Socialist and his economic policies were pure socialist! We all know that socialists are good and warm and cuddly and Hitler was Evil! He could not have been a socialist!
What, Hitler said he was a christian? Sure, we believe him. We all know that christians are mean and evil and all xenocidal maniacs! Of course Hiter was a christian!
And by the way, our republicans are christian right and must be nazis themselves. I bet that if find out which
"right wing bozo wrote a book saying this, based on nothing more than the fact that the name of Hitler's party was "The National SOCIALIST Party". ", I will find that the same book that the bozo examined his socialist economic policies, not just the party label as a basis for his opinion.
While I am an atheist and libertarian, this kind of attempt to slander catholicism, bash christianity, equate republicans with nazis and whitewash socialism is disgusting to me!
