This is an edited version of an e-mail sent me on a
List I'm on. It's about a documentary: "The Nazis: A Warning From
History." "[T]he footage is remarkable, e.g., Hitler hugging
children, taking naps; Nazi carnivals that look like something out of Eyes Wide Shut, Nazi youth camps and hippie-like
communes, etc. [T]he interviews with former Nazis is very disturbing -- how
people respond to a powerful charismatic leader who can give their life
'meaning' via being part of a collective, losing their identity, having (ahem) hope,
etc. One woman interviewed (in the late 1990s) was confronted with a letter
she'd sent to the Gestapo about the 'suspicious' activities of a neighbor, who
was eventually hauled off and killed. At first she claimed not to remember it,
and then pretty much admitted to it! It was something else to see her on camera
being confronted with it. Another notable part was on how Hitler ruled. .
.according to the documentary, he'd speak in broad terms of what he wanted. The
underlings would make the specific policy recommendations and claim that they
reflected what Hitler wanted." I THOUGHT what we were hearing from both
Obama's and Hillary's camps was strange and alarming. How do we GET such people
as SERIOUS candidates for the highest office in the land? These people are
serious socialists -- as was Hitler. Take a lesson. (Net Flix)
