Interesting. When I point to a dark episode in US history I get criticised
for making an "unfair and slanderous attack", but but when an American
poster points to a dark episode in European history and accuses WW2 era
Europeans of being in bed with the Nazis, nobody seems to consider *that* an
"unfair and slanderous attack".   :-(

Why is it that nowadays almost anything I say is considered vile and
slanderous, while at the same time nobody seems to care when American
posters launch personal attacks and throw unwarranted insults and
accusations around?
