Hans:
Your apparent quote of President Bush, followed by a comparative reference to
Nazi Germany is truly revolting ! And truly inappropriate for this list.
How is it revolting to state a fact? By pointing out the quite
similar statements made by Bush and Hitler, Prof. Pizka is simply reminding
all of us that we must either learn from the past or be doomed to repeat it.
I think there is a fine distinction to be made between patriotism, love of
one's fatherland, and politicized aggression which uses the guise of
patriotism to pursue its own agenda. Just a thought, IMHO.
