You might be right about it being off topic - the problem is that if we do not recognize evil, which includes fascisms, in our own time then we are condemned to repeat it. And nazism is indeed on of those fascisms - as are communism and islam.
This is what led Germany to its downfall. And islam is what is leading Lebanon, which is the current country that is falling, to a fascism. As did Russia, China and many others fell to communism. Indonesia, and many other countries in Southeast Asia have fallen to islam and the violence abounds.
We can keep denying these things and just be politically correct, I suppose. That got everyone in those countries where they are today.
Since Hitler is a safe subject and was able to take over a country by a people who just stood by and let it happen - we should be forewarned of how easy it can be. And with Hitler being a Catholic - this should not only disgust us, but make us wonder how could so many other Catholics follow him. Yes, there were others of other beliefs that followed him too, but that doesn’t excuse anyone from being so easily led by such evil.
Europe is having a - what I will call - a ‘muslim problem’ right now. Go to
jihadwatch.org and you will find many articles from many European nations, including the UK, having an increase in the muslim on non-muslim violence blossom. There are even recent articles on it from this week - and we have barely begun the week.
I think the europeans have been frightened silly with what happened with Hitler so this is why they let their current problem get out of hand. they are unwilling to take action, maybe by thinking it will go away. Hitler really did a ‘number’ on Europe, I will say that.
There is one thing that I have not looked into very much and that is Pope Pius and what the rumors, or truths, about him are in regards to the Nazis. I thought he hid some Jews in the Vatican. to me that showed guts since the Germans could have bombed the Vatican very easily if they found out.
