George Soros – Bush America needs de-Nazification
The New York Post recently (February 18, 2007) carried a virulently unpleasant article about billionaire financial wizard and extraordinarily generous philanthropist George Soros.

According to the New York Post, George Soros told “a group of reporters over lunch recently that America's future will be determined by the "extent it recognizes the mistake" that was made by waging war in Iraq - and purging those responsible. "America needs to follow the policies it has introduced in Germany," said the Hungarian-born hedge-fund billionaire, according to The New York Times. "We have to go through a certain de-Nazification process."”

==snip==

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it probably is a duck. George Soros is correct and has done decent America and the World a great favour by speaking out on Bush-ite Nazi comparisons and calling not only for the democratic removal of the Bush régime but a subsequent thorough de-Nazification of the Amerika involved in this horrendous, continuing Nazi-style abuse of human rights and Mass Avoidable Death (MAD).

2. george soros is my hero
He really spreads democracy and freedom rather than just using it as a battle cry.

3. Kick
One of the most informative stories, I've read in a while. And George Soros gets to the root of the cancer -- that is destroying our great democracy in America -- which is its dark history of Nazi/Republican connections.

5. I Agree With Soros, Been Calling for de-Nazification for YEARS!
It was obvious from very early on that what was going down was not (pardon the expression) kosher.

The vast, right-wing conspiracy (the last truthful thing Hillary ever said) must be uncovered, singled out, and purged from this nation, or there will be no America any longer.

6. I was slow to sign the World Can't Wait statement because the
line "People look at all this and think of Hitler - and they are right
to do so" struck me as overstated.

No more.

Sunsara Taylor's essay "Drawing Lessons for Today from Hitler's Rise" is I think
quite brilliant.

"People look at all of this and think of Hitler, and they are right to do so. The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake the world, in a fascist way, and for generations to come."

From the Call for The World Can't Wait - Drive Out the Bush Regime

"The Bush Administration is the most dangerous force that has ever existed. It is more dangerous than Nazi Germany because of the range and depth of its activities and its intentions worldwide. I give my full support to the Call to Drive Out the Bush Regime."

Harold Pinter, Nobel Laureate of Literature

Each time people attempt to draw lessons for today from the rise of Nazi Germany, hysterical pundits and politicians break into a chorus of condemnations. When Congressman Dick Durbin suggested that the accounts of Guantanamo could easily have been describing Nazi prisons, he was forced to tearfully apologize on the floor of the Congress. And not long ago, when The World Can't Wait Drive Out the Bush Regime ran a paid full-page ad in the New York Times, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly blew a gasket and argued that the Times should have refused the ad because it included this comparison.

Even among those who hate the Bush regime, many feel that making this comparison is too extreme.

But the question must be asked, is it true? Are there similarities that merit recognition? How did a nation of millions come to widely embrace and otherwise go along with Hitler's openly genocidal, brutally misogynistic, virulently racist, hatefully anti-gay regime?

7. Soros is correct about these kinder and gentler Nazis
I am glad at least someone in the public eye is saying it.
