The Political Fallout of Comparing Politicians to Adolph Hitler

Los Angeles, CA—Adolph Hitler was evil personified. Hitler murdered six million Jews and over nine million Germans lost their lives because of that vile despot.

Jews in particular become offended when any of our politicians are compared to Hitler.  They take the position that Hitler was so evil he stands alone as an object of hate.  Suggesting anyone else may be trying to fill Hitler’s shoes marginalizes that dictator’s horrific accomplishments.  

Let me say that Hitler was not just evil but more importantly he had great success in his world-class crime spree and genocide.  It’s not that others are not less evil; they just never had Hitler’s kind of success. 

Josef Stalin was every bit as evil as Hitler and was also an enemy of Jews.  Josef Stalin killed as many or more people than Hitler, but since Stalin was victorious in defeating Hitler his henchmen authored the history books. There were a vast amount of Soviet war criminals that got a free ride after the war.

There are other lesser evil politicians than Hitler and Stalin.  They are not less evil only less successful.

Politicians by nature want to dominate entire populations.  As they obtain power and the spoils of office they become obsessed with wanting more power and wealth.  The more power they have the more they want.  They invent ways to tax people into slavery and eliminate freedom.  Any politician can become another Hitler.

After World war Two and the Holocaust the surviving Jews adopted the slogan, “Never Again!” The problem is that since the beginning of mankind we have had despots and Holocausts.  We don’t have video, film or pictures documenting those horrors because that technology did not exist.  We simply treat the older history is intangible legend.

The fact is with human beings we can count on many more Hitlers and Stalins.  That especially true if we allow our politicians to have absolute power. We are making the same mistakes with Obama as the Germans and Russians did with their despots. We are giving him and his henchmen more power than they could possibly need. 

As humans we have a duty to rein in politicians when they extend their authority over liberty and freedom.  With Barack Obama we are making the same mistakes the Germans, Russians and Italians did before World war Two with their despots.

How soon we forget how Hitler promised the people of Germany everything.  Hitler was loved and even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.  He was Time Magazine’s Man of the Year! 

Could we travel the same road with Obama or any American politician?  We’d be foolish to say that it could never happen.  It did in the past and will in the future.  What’s past is prologue.  

It is anything but wrong to watch and compare every politician to past mass murderers that held public office.   It is our duty.  If we ignore our duty to watch and control our politicians we may wake up and find slavery, torture and genocide right in our faces.   We will have nobody to blame but ourselves.
