I am usually impressed by the writing on American Thinker but not so much with this comment. The rest of the article is fine. He just draws the wrong conclusion.
Germany is a democracy. Its leaders are elected and its leaders are dependent on donations to their campaigns to garner election and reelection.
This leaves them open to influence by those that can come up with sizable donations of cash to those campaigns.
The availability of cash to fund activist that loudly voice opinions and get their opinions in print also can influence elected leaders.
It seems more likely to me that it is Soros that pulls the strings on Germany than the other way round.
One man with Billions of dollars available to influence a few critical leaders in one country seems more likely to get his way than a group of politicians who rarely agree on anything.
History will not be kind to the old Nazi and his cohorts. Dr. Kaplan's book appears to be well-researched and informative. Like putting together pieces of a massive jigsaw puzzle, we will eventually come to know the depth and scope of the evil and destruction that has been wrought by those who believe they are superior and should be the masters of humanity. They despise freedom and they despise America.
Let us acknowledge their existence and their near-victory in destroying liberty. Then let us proceed to wipe them off the face of the earth.
