Hitlers without end.
I'll take a different tack than Ashton.
It isn't that we have to hate anyone or anything.
It is that we don't know how to NOT hate anyone or anything anymore.
Rather than taking that energy and working to build ourselves up (is this the best we can accomplish).....
We take the easy route of finding a scape goat for all the problems in the world.
If we could just get Osama, terrorism would end.
If we could just get Saddam, the mid-east would be peaceful.
The beauty of this system is that there will always be ANOTHER Hitler. Someone, somewhere is doing something that goes against our basic, democratic, humanitarian beliefs.
This is because we are funding most of them in some manner.
The US is in decline. We cannot conceive of greater accomplishments. Well, we can think about conceiving them. But that's as far as we ever get. We put the first man on the moon. But we still haven't made it to Mars. Nor does it look like the USofA ever will. And so on.
We've stopped trying to be better and we've substituted the Hitler du jour to give us the illusion that we're still alive.
