Holocaust ='s Afgans

[Patrick]

I dont post here much but i think what bush is doing is lame and yeah... so i think what is going on in Iraq is sorta like the holocaust you know.......

1A. Great Depression Hitler rises up and gets some nationalism and bam people are behind him like crazy. So jews are to blame for problems.
1B. 9/11 ='s strong nationalism we all get behind bush and say yeah lets go beat afgan ass. Leads us to wanting Hussian so we goto Iraq.


2A. Germans not to sure whats going with Jews, and Concentration camps but still support Hussian
2B. We get some weird ass torture photos from Iraq and we have no clue whats going on but we keep going on with the process Bush is "dumbfounded" by what is happening.

I think bush has good morals but hes a little sketchy

a bunch of naked prisoners in no way relates to the genocide of the holocaust, even making that comparison is disrespectfull of the millions that died in the concentration camps, and the millions that fought in WWII. to relate hazing to genocide is so far off base i dont even know what to say...

[open mind]

i have to agree with yeat here for once.
if your gonna compare hitler and bush at least have some better comparisons.

[Patrick]

I understand, but even if its merely along the lines of what hitler did there should be something wrong.

[open mind]

maybe if bush sets up massive concentration camps filled only with muslims, then kills them it'll be along the lines of hitler, prison beatings and torture is fucked but it's not nearly the same. (and bush saying that's not how we treat american prisoners is bullshit there are plenty of guards in america that beat prisoners)and bush didn't have the power to increase nationalism so much as it happened by itself.

Patrick your way off on this one, but you have an Armor for Sleep avatar so Im gonna leave you alone. Anyone remember the Armenian Genocide?

I did a term paper on it once......it's HARD to find information on that thing.
Turkey still denies it to this day, and tried to bribe microsoft to cut it out of encarta.

But its not, it’s not even in the same ballpark......You need to study some history before making some asinine "comparison".....The policy that developed into the holocaust was national policy, or policy created by the government for a specific outcome......here on the other hand we have some "hazing" done by a few "screwed up" reservists (I think they say the number is at about 30 right now, not a million plus like in the SS) acting on their own, with no with no orders or policy to follow....and who unlike the SS, will be punished for their actions, not rewarded…

I’m sorry but I can’t see how someone could be so ignorant as to compare the murder, slavery, and genocide of 12 million people…..to some limited acts of humiliation……..

the act of a few stupid, pathetic, worthless soldiers in iraq does not reflect Bush's intentions (altho i do wish he handled the situations better from the start, afghan, iraq etc)..
its no way fair to say that this is like another holocaust.
