WWII-era Propaganda Posters (image intensive)--where are ours?

I backed tracked ACLU to Ahmed Huber. Neo Nazi is connected to ACLU. So it is an oxymoron.

[SuziQ]

Nowadays that boot should have "ACLU" on it rather than the swastika!

[SuziQ]

LOL!! GMTA. I posted the same thing before I'd read yours!

[expatguy]

bttt

[speedy]

And of course the ACLU would disallow the one with Joe Louis because he is saying "we are on God's side." Breaching that precious wall between church and state, you know.

[null and void]

Very timely. All you need to do is replace that swastika with a crescent and star...

Darth Vader is watching me?

[rottndog]

That's awsome. Never seen it before--I wonder why.....


BTW----It ain't propaganda if it's true!!!!

[Petronski]

LOL

Star Wars is nothing if not derivative. ;O)


[not a negative criticism]

[Unam Sanctam]

Unfortunately, what is taught and preached now in many of those delightful New England churches bears very little resemblance to Christianity. The culture that the WWII generation fought to preserve has been destroyed from within by cultural radicals from the 1960s onwards.

But, of course, Gitmo is far worse. Yeah. Right.

[Petronski]

Never seen it before--I wonder why.....

Yes....provocative....

[Boazo]

Now in 2005 we have this!

Actually, IIRC, they got the basic shape of Vader's helmet from the Nazi helmets of WW2, because the shape was already associated with "sinister". Don't forget, star wars was made only about 30 years after WW2.

(Dang that makes me feel old)

The dark ones are my favorites:

That is fantastic, thanks

I agree that one thing the government should be doing is to raise the public awareness that we are at war. The idea that it might upset people is so much doggerel. Posters in public buildings and schools should be as much a part of the civic landscape as all of the touchy-feely 'Celebrate XYZ' crap plastered all over. The notion that we should just go on in an insular middle class world eating cheeseburgers and buying plasma screen TV's without a thought to the reality of our nation's peril is insane. Buy the damn burgers and TV's, but fer cryin' out loud we ought to be seeing some effort to unify the nation behind our military action and the necessary goals we MUST achieve in order to secure stable peace for our next generation's future.

I downloaded a bunch of those from various sites and had altered a few for freeper purposes.
