I would vote for Moby as the President and Mandela as Vice


That would be cool. If I lived in the US I would definately vote for them!

Why the hey would anyone need to learn from past mistakes that violence and war are bad things!?




Was fighting the Nazis a mistake?

No. One must assume that the choices the Nazis made were bad ones and that the only way they could be stopped is through violence, as their minds were twisted to such a level that they refused any logic. The violence was terrible, however, it would have been worse had nobody done anything to stop it...

No, fighting against the Nazi regime was not a mistake and there are a ton of reasons - Hitler stormed into other European countries in his quest for world domination. He proposed a final solution that would rid the motherland and all Euro countries of Jews and killed at least 6 million of them in the process. Talk to any Jew today and they can trace back somewhere in their family tree that suffered at the hands of the Nazi regime. But although the focus tends to be how Hitler and the Nazis treated the Jews preceeding and during WWII, they also succeeded in executing 6 million more people; Hungarians, Russians, Poles, Catholics, innocent civilians aiding those on Hitler's shitlist, the mentally challenged and physically challenged just to name a few. A lot of this happened right under the word's nose. Because for the most part , countries like the US back then were more isolationist in relation to how small the world is today in a global economic sense, so the need for intervention on the part of the US was deliberated for a good long time before plummeting into the war. Therefore, very little was done to stop the continuous rise of the 3rd Reich until near the end when Hitler's forces started showing some wear-and-tear - either there wasn't the support or need to jump into a large scale war (there's disturbing theories on that) and the economically the US for example, was just getting over the severe economic depression of the 1930's. There were a lot of factors involved in WWII, it's not as black and white as it seems. There were socio-ethnic reasons for the world's involvment, but there were economic ones too. The bottom line is that millions and millions of people that were crushed (or nearly crushed) by the Nazi regime, Hitler was a certifiable nutcase bent on ruling a facist world and he had his cronies like Mussolini and Hirohito licking his backside while his regime, socioeconomic and ethnic ideas and militarymight eventually became a threat to the growing global economy at large. Of course there was a humanitarian factor in all this, and if not for other reasons, that played a big part in justifying intervention.
be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

Hmm, I guess when you compare Saddam to Hitler, he's not as bad, but still is far from good. He's still a militarian dictator nutcase, and he can't help himself, so he needs other nations to help stop the madness.
