Hehe, the person who uploaded the video also recommend Adolf Hitler the greatest Story never told. A controversial documentary, I haven't watched it but it is a documentary from the Nazis vision. Interesting, but I will never understand the jew/Zionist thing whatever it is. Also please ignore the top text that speaks of Zionist conquest, I highly doubt it would happen. I understand fascist viewpoints to a degree but Nazis I will never understand their race thing and their jew obsession. But whatever floats their boat.
Also just asking, what do you think of fascists? Since I have seen several types of fascists sone of them support meritocracy others suport dictatorship. Most of them as far as I know dosent care about race which is one of the biggest diffrences betwen fascism and nazism. That is one thing that has "bugged" me a bit is that the word is now used as an political insult mostly by communists which confuse me since why do they call people they strongly disagree with fascists and not nazis? This has always crosesed my mind when I read political discussions.
Driving home in the snow, the CBC had an interview on with Matthew Halton's son, about his new book on his Dad, and not just his "with the troops " reporting during WWII, but his earlier reporting as the European Correspondent for the Toronto Star.
While Halton was reporting from Berlin, in the early 30's on how Germany was entering a National Nightmare, documenting the rise of German Militarism, the persecution of dissent, minorities and the Jews,
The Globe and Mail, and all the other major Canadian papers, were praising Hitler as a " man of Peace", a "visionary", a "new hope for Europe", and comissioning hit pieces on Halton.
For the mainstream Canadian newspapers, only the Invasion of Poland changed their tune.
I have zero sympathies to those who support the state over the individual. Fascists, Nazis, communists, socialists, etc. .... their focus is never on the individual .... the only difference among them is to what degree do they want to control and regulate our lives.
Jay .... I am well aware of the support and praise that Hitler received before the Second World War. It boggles the mind, and is just one more reason on why we should always be skeptical of the media.
New York Times publishing Walter Duranty's coverage of Stalin during the 1930s ... now that is classic.
