Title: Bill O’Reilly: Trump’s real failure is not understanding the evils of Nazism
Post by: ABX on August 21, 2017, 09:25:31 pm
Looks like Trump lost or is losing BORe too.

....That's why no other discussion can take place when Nazis are being analyzed. They must stand alone in any vilification even though Stalin, Mao, Tojo and others also committed premeditated mass murder on a staggering scale.

President Trump did not understand that and it has hurt him. He was trying to make other points in the midst of the revulsion of white supremacists marching in Charlottesville.

Mr. Trump saw violence by some counter-protesters and pointed it out. But when a young woman is killed by an alleged Nazi sympathizer, that point must wait to be made.......

Nazi Germany was a horrible evil, but it hardly "stands alone" in the annals of evil and depravity.  Across the centuries on all continents, except Antarctica and Australia, millions of people have been slaughtered by marauding mobs of killers. Some simply because they were of another country, race, or creed and many simply because they could be slaughtered.

There has been evil in Australia against the aborigines.   perhaps not on the same scale but then they didn't have a population of millions.

There is plenty of evil in our history since the beginning.

Genghis Khan did some pretty horrible things.   Vlad the Impaler?     Ancient Chinese rulers?   Mao, Lenin, Pol Pot, Stalin?   Heck the Romans killed plenty of people.

"Did you know that German Americans comprise the largest ethnic group in this country?"


This moke put his foot in his mouth.

Does Bill O'Reilly know how many German and Italian Americans fought and died in fighting the Nazis and Fascists?

Bill doesn't understand the difference between a Loofah and a Falafel.
