Check out these cartoons. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

Except that the cartoons are going to become the justification - like people need justification to hurt one another :sigh: Tom Archer (blog) Program Manager MSDN Online (Windows Vista and Visual C++) MICROSOFT

I don't mind the cartoons so much. I just seems very hypocritical. And it seems some in the Arab world want to start a war over the cartoons. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

Am I meant to feel a strong emotional outburst as a result. The only one that raised any level of disgust was the kiddie fiddling Hitler cartoon - and that was not on religious grounds. I mostly found it odd that all the cartoons were anti-jewish whereas Denmark is a secular, but predominately Christian, country. In Scotland there are not so many jewish people around. Of all the people I know I can only think of one - A friend of mine when I was at school - and the thing I remember most about him was him asking if he could join me for lunch (I went home for lunch) so he could eat ham sandwiches - as he obviously wasn't allowed them at home. So, on the whole, not overly interested in his "faith".

That was Ann Frank, the little girl who died in a camp toward the end of WWII. Pretty damn sick. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

Great, now they are stupid and hypocrites. They could've at least made sure the cartoons were funny. :laugh: Oh, and of course, now we should go murder their people and burn down their buildings. Jeremy Falcon

It shows there is a great effort of education to do... What is also sad is that the only point retained from Nazi persecutions is the Holocaust. The other victims are not even recognized.

I think that depends on who you talk to. As a history buff, I know the Nazis killed gypsies, Homosexuals, and other "undesireables". But you are right that the Jewish killings get most of the attention, probably because if the sheer number, 6 million. What I find more interesting, is that Stalin killed more than Hitler. Stalin hated everyone. Why does Stalin not get as recognised as Hitler does as a mass murderer?

And all the political opponents, conscientious objectors, people with severe deseases and disabilities, "Bible believers", the priests exterminated in Dachau...

And the 10 millions of soviet citizens?

On a much longer period, and if Stalin had something similar to concentration camps, AFAIK there was no Auschwitz in USSR. Also don't forget that the West was very happy of Stalin's involvment in WW2, without USSR, Hitler would have won the war.

Actually, there was a lot a resistance to Roosevelt's cozing up to Stalin in the US. I read a book once that talked about how Roosevelt consitered Stalin as harmless. They used to call him "Uncle Joe". Patten, the US general from WWII said if he were between the Germans and Russians, he would order his men to fire on both.
