That's just silly. So the kids from the Columbine Massacre are the worst because they wanted everyone dead? If we're just basing things off of what is in peoples heads then "Demetri" is the suavest, greatest lover in the world. Last edited by Sammy; 02-21-2009 at 03:01 PM. |

Sammy's right. Columbine kids are even more evil because they killed people they knew.
Of course accomplishments have to do with the evilness of a person or people. My brother Ken once wished everyone was dead. Is he the most evil? |

Nazis found a way to get so much power that they were able to kill 6 million. That makes them smarter maybe but not per se more evil. Terrorists these days have it much harder killing people. And I still say that the terrorists would kill 6 million people without thinking about it, if they could. Now we're almost getting down to a phylisophical debate about what 'evil' is. Still I think you could be more harsh, more cruel and more evil without ever killing a person, then a nazi. Keith if your brother honestly, in his hart, wants everyone on this planet to die then yes he pretty fucking evil. But before I'd compare his evilness to the nazis or the arab extremists I'd like to know his reasoning behind this believe of him. In my opinion someone killing a child, without reason or purpose, that he/she is unrelated to, is way more evil then a father killing his wife and kids cause he believes that's the only way that they can be happily together. That's 1 kill vs 2+ kills. |

the story that matt was refering to was in 1944 when the allies were nearing paris and the nazis were leaving, hitler ordered general dietrich von Choltitz, the military governor of paris to blow up the tower he disobeyed orders bc he could not bring himself to destroy a beautiful monument like it. also u have to take into account that in europe architecture is a very big thing, far more than in the states

McNally, tell us how you really feel!
And regarding Nazis, Islamic/Arabic Extremists, I think this diagram will help define things: The Nazi's conducted war and genocide. The Islamic extremists are adept at terrorism and insurgency/guerrilla warfare. So as much as the population of Germany may have bought into the Nazi idealism, it was the Government that carried out the acts (by way of the legitimate military). Extremists and terrorist groups are composed of civilians who are usually not trained by the military nor funded by the government. I think the point that Matt B was trying to make is that it would be very convenient if our current enemies had the same defined parameters as the Nazis: Uniformed soldiers, Generals, land bases and strategic sites (eg, bridges, railroads), Capital cities, and political leaders who can eventually sign a surrender treaty. In that sense I think today's extremists are much worse than the Nazis. Another way to think of things is to call the Nazis "European Extremists." While religion wasn't terribly important to the Germans of that era, they did general exist within a Christian ethic. And since their closest enemies (US, Britain, France) were also caucasian and Christian, a certain amount of restraint was exercised. The same could be said of the Americans, who didn't punish the Germans as severely as Japanese, who were considered almost inhuman in comparison. After all, most Americans boast a German heritage. It is my opinion that today's terrorist extremists are worse than the Nazis and the totalitarian governments of the 20th century. Why? Because no matter how brainwashed a people may be by politics, they will always be further driven to complete insanity by the combination of poverty and religious fervor.
