You might want to check out a book called "Hitler's WIlling Executioners" before you give the average German a pass.

I'll check it out. Before I do, however who do you think are more rabid? The Nazis or Islamofascists?

I definitely agree with your characterization of Muslim's being rabid, but at the same time, having read about the post-Wilsonian 14 Points Germany, I don't think Hitler was able to rise so fast because the German people were casual about restoring their country to greatness.

I think for whatever reasons the Nazis were more methodical. To be crass, I believe the Nazis THOUGHT about what they were doing more, which made them such an immense threat so quickly.

I think if the Muslims--oh, excuse me, the 'terrorists' since all Muslims aren't blah blah blah--were as intelligent, or had the stability of a nation as a base, we'd be in a much hotter war than we are now. I think their need for these splashy attacks is as much about making themselves feel big. But their intense concentration on media and propaganda is certainly a trait they share with the Nazis.

To answer your question in brief, I think the Nazis had focus; the Islamofascists have passion.
