(…cont'd…)
However, it's not as if Hitler was the only-ever brutal dictator in human history. I outlined one example in
>>12; All the things Hitler did, was also done by other dictators.
With the notable exception of massive-scale death camps. That alone is what really separates Hitler from such cozy allies of ours as Stalin (well OK, not an ally since 1945), Pinochet (who btw did the first 9/11, in 1973), Pol Pot (recognized as «legitimate ruler» of Cambodia, long after he was ousted… by the Vietnamese), those numerous proxy-war oh-so-not vassals all over the Third World, etc.
So to summarise:
It seems the Powers That Be need Hitler to be the be-all-end-all Complete Monster Of All Time.
They're not content with having him be a brutal dictator, those are a dime a dozen;
he has to be outright inhumanly evil.
Which I think is the real reason we get this oh-so-not Soviet-style propaganda campaign
against those pesky Unbelieving thought-criminals that stand to «demote» Hitler's evilness
from Satan's Older Brother to Saddam Hussein or Josef Stalin.
Which would have been bad enough, but nohoho.
Oh, and for the record, before I forget:
I seriously fail to see how a
real Nazi would deny the Holocaust if it really did happen. What he
would say, is that the Jews actually deserved exactly what they got, and to lament the fact that the 3rd Reich managed to kill
only six million Jews.
The Revisionists (that I've bothered to hear out) are saying nothing of the sort.
