I'm not taking sides, just wanted to corroborate Matt's statement of the Eiffel Tower. This was found on the wikipedia site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_Tower:
Upon the Nazi occupation of Paris in 1940, the lift cables were cut by the French so that Adolf Hitler would have to climb the steps to the summit. The parts to repair them were allegedly impossible to obtain because of the war. In 1940 German soldiers had to climb to the top to hoist the swastika, but the flag was so large it blew away just a few hours later, and it was replaced by a smaller one. When visiting Paris, Hitler chose to stay on the ground. It was said that Hitler conquered France, but did not conquer the Eiffel Tower. A Frenchman scaled the tower during the German occupation to hang the French flag. In August 1944, when the Allies were nearing Paris, Hitler ordered General Dietrich von Choltitz, the military governor of Paris, to demolish the tower along with the rest of the city. Von Choltitz disobeyed the order. The lifts of the Tower were working normally within hours of the Liberation of Paris. |

Nazis. Arab extremists were brainwashed since little and clearly were brought up from a society of savages. Nazis were supposed to be enlightened, they knew exactly what were they doing. they were very calculated on how they attempted to kill all the Jews.
