War isn't cool, but a lot of really cool stuff happens in a war. When your under fire and you look up and see a couple of F-4 Phantoms coming in at tree-top level, that's cool. When one lets loose of an HE bomb and you see that little wiggle they always do before they stablize, that's cool. When you see those silver napalm canisters drop and begin to tumble and then you watch as the flames race across the landscape and several hundred miles an hour, that's cool.
When the choppers come take you away and the pilot lifts the tail of the craft to make the most of the thrust, that's cool. When your running low on ammo, water, and chow and the choppers are coming in wiht pallets suspended from their bellies, that's cool.
Okay, the video has downloaded and I think it's cool enough. If I was a murdering insurrectionist scumbucket or a lily-livered weenie, I wouldn't think it was cool.

Adolf Hitler, 12 April 1922
My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before in the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice.... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people.... When I go out in the morning and see these men standing in their queues and look into their pinched faces, then I believe I would be no Christian, but a very devil if I felt no pity for them, if I did not, as did our Lord two thousand years ago, turn against those by whom to-day this poor people is plundered and exploited.
-Adolf Hitler, in his speech on 12 April 1922

Uh, Ace, no he wasn't. I don't care if he whistled "I'll Fly Away" while ordering the Luftwaffe to bomb London and the trains to take the Jews to Dachau, he was not a Christian.

Where did you get this information? From Hitler's Table Talk? Or Secret Conversations with Hitler, perhaps? Just curious.

I read.
I'm also a Christian. A Christian doesn't attempt to slaughter all the Jews. Read the Bible as a Christian would and you'll see the consequences of this.

The Arabs have attempted Genocide at least 3 times in the last 60 years and STILL people defend these fanatics.
Do you mean the Christians have attempted genocide three time in the last 60 or so years?
Germany in the 1940's
Yugoslavia in the 1990's
Rwanda in the 1990's
BTW, millions have died in wars led by Pax Americana in Korea and Indo-China and Pax Americana is still waging more wars.

War is a fact of life. Get used to it. The universe does NOT reward passive cultures (they get conquered and usually wiped out).
