Why aren’t Jewish groups making more noise?" asks New York magazine: en-us uheilman@jta.org Copyright 2009 2009-10-15T;19:35:00-05:00 winfamly@bigpond.net.au While I suspect that Hussein Soetoro has strong sympathies to mohammedans that he is hiding as it is impolitic to bring those into the open, I deplore the ridiculousness of equaiting him to Hitler. Firstly, there is no evidence that he is intolerant to Jews; just note his sidekick Rahm Emanuel. Secondly, comparing anyone to Hitler (or Stalin) trivialises the evil that the Nazis inflicted on humanity, especially Jews. Name calling is not a left/right issue, but one of irrationality and immaturity.
