Hitler is back in U.S. and Israeli rhetoric to exploit fear of the masses:
- “Ahmadinejad speaks today like Hitler before taking power. So you see, we are dealing with a psychopath of the worst kind — with an anti-Semite. God forbid that this man ever gets his hands on nuclear weapons, to carry out his threats.”
(Israeli PM Olmert)
Rumsfeld headlines, just google:
On February 2, 2006 the U.S. government’s senior hawk, Donald Rumsfeld, stooped to the Hitler ‘analogy’ in a show of his administration’s increasing desperation at the consolidation of the Bolivarian Revolution and the rise of the Left in Latin America. The Secretary of Defense delivered the clumsy slur against the (repeatedly) democratically elected president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez:
- “We’ve got Chavez in Venezuela with a lot of oil money. He’s a person who was elected legally, just as Adolf Hitler was elected legally, and then consolidated power, and now is, of course, working closely with Fidel Castro and Mr. [Evo] Morales and others. It concerns me.”
● Rumsfeld Likens Chavez to Hitler – Americas
● Rumsfeld Steps Up Iraq War Talk
WASHINGTON D.C. (AP/MSNBC) August 21, 2002 — “US ‘cannot wait for arms proof’ like appeasers of Hitler did. I mean Mein Kampf had been written. Hitler had indicated what he intended to do. Maybe he won’t attack us. Maybe he won’t do this or that. Well, there were millions of people dead because of the miscalculations.”

● Rumsfeld Compares Lenin to Hitler
MOSCOW (Pravda.ru) Oct. 4, 2003 — Donald Rumsfeld proclaimed that Saddam Hussein will join others in the annals of the history books as a failed dictator, naming “Hitler, Stalin, Lenin and Ceausescu”.
That everything was not perfect in Vladimir Ulyanov’s Russia is patently clear. However, to compare him to Hitler is wholly inappropriate and demonstrates a degree of arrogance and ignorance shocking in a person at the political level which Rumsfeld has somehow attained.
At least Vladimir Ulyanov did not flout international law and launch a murderous campaign against a sovereign nation, massacring civilians, leaving women and children without limbs. Maybe Rumsfeld forgot to add Bush to the list. For Rumsfeld’s information, Lenin was Vladimir Ulyanov’s pseudonym.
If Rumsfeld compares Lenin to Hitler, maybe we should compare Bush to Genghis Khan and Rumsfeld himself to Jabba the Hutt.

● Rumsfeld Likens al-Zarqawi to Hitler
FORT BRAGG N.C. (AP) May 26, 2005 — In a pep talk to thousands of paratroopers, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld likened al-Qaida’s reportedly wounded chief in Iraq to a cornered Adolf Hitler during the final days of Nazi Germany.
- “Like Hitler in his bunker, this violent extremist, failing to advance his political objectives, now appears committed to destroying everything and everyone around him. … Like the Japanese kamikaze attacks at the end of World War II, the suicide bombings by the followers of al-Zarqawi are a sign of desperation.”

“Does another Hitler flex it’s powerful military muscle?”
Fri Apr 28th, 2006 at 08:45:57 AM PST
A new Wall Street Journal WSJ/NBC News Poll shows that “despite Iraq, Americans don’t reject strikes against a nuclear Iran. By 48%-42%, public says U.S. should join coalition to attack Iran’s nuclear capability if Tehran approaches development of a weapon.”
Are 48% of the American people smoking crack? Seriously.
Wake up and read this post, “Bush’s Five-Point Plan to Invade IRAN – Copyright 2003“.
.
In last week’s poll, the Southeast Missourian asked:
Do you think the United States should seek a military or diplomatic solution to Iran’s nuclear ambitions?
- 42.9 percent: Diplomatic — we can’t afford another war
- 39.5 percent: Diplomatic, then military — seek peaceful solutions first
- 14.7 percent: Military — they’re forcing our hand with the nuclear talk
- 2.8 percent: Undecided
Especially interesting to review the comments!
From “Nuke ’em” to “Bush already has bankrupted the U.S.A.”
