Well, not quite. He said the terrorists are worse than Hitler and the Nazis. He said: "Hitler, in his philosophy, was, you know, he hated Jews, he was murdering Jews, and there were some people he liked. But he never went to the level that these people are going to," LoBiondo said.

He seems to be saying that because Hitler had a basis for carrying out his murder (Jew-hatred) it made more sense than what these terrorists are doing. At least it certainly can be read that way.

You're right. It can most certainly be read that way.
It just gripes me how the Dems always get a pass on these sorts of remarks, and the Retardicans don't.
Even though LoBiondo is a small timer, you can bet this will make national news.

One way to rephrase is by saying Hitler had a definite target in mind from Day One. OK, every one knew it was Jews; he made that clear in speeches, in party directives, in boycotts, and in German government policy after he became Chancellor in the 30s. What the Congressman meant to say I gather, if one can interpret his remarks sensibly, is that Islamofascists enemy is indiscriminate. Of course, they want to destroy the West but they also seek to destroy Muslims deemed collaborating with us, like they're doing in Iraq. So they reach a lot more people in a lot of different places than the Nazis did. The Germans Judeocide campaign by and large was confined to Europe; the Islamofascists offensive against the West is more akin to a global crusade. We're literally in the midst of World War III and the stakes are just as high for us as they were in the last world war.
