I think Paul's right on target with this. Comparing Nazi Germany to nations that aren't running blitzkriegs through their neighbors is a logical fallacy that only a gullible, uneducated population would fall for.

That said I still don't think Paul is the man to be President. I see goodness and honesty in him, but not the "true grit" required of the type of leader this nation is going to need. I see that only on Duncan Hunter.

Fascism isn’t a reference to Nazi Germany.

You should know better before you start calling people who disagree with you “uneducated”.

Fascism is a political ideology which is well represented in Islamic movements today. Hitler’s Nazi Germany was based on “master race” fascism. The Islamic movement today is based on religious fascism.

And since you think he's "right on target" you are as big a nut as he is. To say that the term was created to perpetuate war is an affront to decent people simply trying to call a spade a spade.

true grit” required of the type of leader this nation is going to need. I see that only on Duncan Hunter.

MR HUNTER DOES EXHIBIT: TRUE GRIT

SOMEbody should tell dr. ron that this is NOT, as johnny edwards says a ‘bumper sticker’ war...these folks are for REAL..dangerous dedicated jihadis....he should shaddup on the downplaying of our extant danger.....i recently read where an insider journalist once camped out with them in afganistan....seems they set up their white tents on an open plane in the mts there..when the imbed pointed out to one of them that, coalition bombers were patrolling the skys, the tents were white,in plain sight and therefore, under these circumstances, they might be bombed and therefore might no longer live....the jihadi responded...’live? live? we didn’t come here to LIVE we came here to DIE’
even the NAZIS didn’t say stuff like that, mr paul...i’d say that makes the jihadi’s even MORE dangerous than the nazis as PBS says ‘ALL THINGS CONSIDERED’
in short we don’t need any claptrap about how some folks aint as bad as other folks....we need calls for alarm...the true alarm that is warrented in this global struggle....
in short ‘i aint votin for him’

"Comparing Nazi Germany to nations that aren't running blitzkriegs through their neighbors is a logical fallacy that only a gullible, uneducated population would fall for."

So only the presence of a blitzkrieg is required for a Nazi Germany comparison?

Right! < /sarcasm >

Facism is defined by Merriam-Webster's as: A political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

That defines Hitler's regime, and it defines the Islamic facists.

So Paul is wrong. . .naturally.

The Duke,

With all respect, you're wrong.

The "only" reason that Iran and Saudi Arabia haven't "blitzkrieged" through the Middle East ... is their own sheer military incompentency.

Of course, they have tried it against Isreal about 5 times ... and gotten their asses kicked everytime.

Iran would love to target nuclear missiles on Paris, Rome, London ... not to mention the genocidal destruction of 30 million Jews in Isreal ... they just don't have the "miniaturized" nuke (yet).

Ron Paul is beyond naive ...

It's my opinion that a sitting U.S. Congressman, with the access he has to CIA intelligence, is basically guilt of TREASON to espouse the lunatic ideas that Ron Paul does.

The "only" other alternative is that Ron Paul suffers from the same "world-class ego" problem that Ross Perot had in 1992 ...
