not quite sure the point about saddam feeding some birds. showed more compassion to animals than to his fellow man.
hell, hitler was good to his dog too. well, til he poisoned one to make sure that stuff worked before he and wifey committed suicide.

Danzig,
I find that Yogi Berra's words might make a bit of sense, "The future ain't what it used to be."
Then again, maybe your mention of Hitler sparked a historical fact, a despotic leader seeking to unleash a fantasy on those whose minds he's gained control over by telling them that they were the best, entitled, and needed to follow his imperialistic agenda. Doing less would question the wisdom of his actions and be seen as "unpatriotic". Britain stood alone against the insanity of his actions, despite their failed attempt to negotiate a reasonable outcome with a madman.

Is it any wonder that many people see similar cause for alarm by the actions of another despot on March 20, 2003? Are the motives seen differently?
One was to find land for Arian farmers, one to find oil for an addicted populace, and sources for well connected energy brokers.
Yes, my guess like yogi's is that the future ain't what it used to be, but then again, maybe it is.
