What you need to do first is go back and correct the "quotes" in that piece ~ hard to tell where your comment might be, or that of Mr. Franks, or of Hitler.

Maybe put Hitler in light italics, Mr. Franks in dark italics, and yours in ARIAL BOLD or something.

Then we can readdress this business of similar attitudes.

I didn't have the slightest problem sorting it out.

orionbb had a sentence at the top of his post. Then he gave the link he was quoting from, then he pasted the material. Within the pasted material the Hitler quotes were clearly delineated (with quote marks -- imagine that! and footnote numbers) and the webpage author's comments placed in parentheses outside the quote marks.

Then orionbb used the HR tag to draw a line at the end of the pasted material before his own concluding remarks.

If you did have any trouble working it out you only needed to click the link and go the source.

BTW, orion, it was the third quote (foot note 4) and the parenthetical comment following that muawiyah was commenting on in his reply.
