Lucas isn't the most subtle guy in the world and the Nazi angle was fairly obvious from ANH. He's included some elements from ancient Rome as well (chariot races, slavery and I think there's something akin to a gladiator fight in this one). I enjoy historical references in sci-fi, but I'm not at all looking to Lucas for historical or political insight -- even if he were a political ally.
