Are you listening to Batchelor? Riveting history- the comparions between now and 1938 are stunning...
Sorry, no, not listening. But yes, I agree this is very similar to that period in history.
except that in 38 - the bad guys had the best military in the world (until US forces built up). today, the bad guys cannot win militarily. the only way they can win, is for the media and the world community to intervene on their behalf - causing the West to be unwilling to fight the total war needed to defeat them.
I have been thinking of the run up to WW2 for a long time...but, the problem is, the "Nazi" thingy has been thrown around for so many minor things...
that NOW, when the comparison could be a matter of life and death..no one even listens when it is brought up.
Also..wasn't the battle cry after WW2, Never forget, never again...or something like that?
