Hite: Rise to Evil

[KShan5[PrFC]]

The two part documentary aired last night.

I watched it and had a genrally good time while watching. The only problems I found were:

1. A bit too much editorilizing
2. Some parts a bit choppy
3. Hitler looked like a sickly feeble man

I meant to catch that, but we thought it was tonight, and not last night. I'm going to watch the second part at least to see how they did it. I agree on Hitler looking quite the feeble man.

Essentially it is jsut a movie, no narrator. Just watch HItler's life and his rise to power.

i taped it last night and watched it (had to watch the season finale of the bachelor) i thought it was really good, im waiting for the other part to come on. although i thought they could have done without the animal abuse we can allready see what kind of person he was and how his sick mind worked without that.

Hi guys! I didn't see any tv last night because I don't have a tv! BUt.....I did stop into an office where I saw a pile of magazines and I picked up an issue of News_whater with Saddam Huiseen on the cover and started to read. You know, at first I didn't believe the comparison between Hitler and Saddam. I thought it was just another political stretch to bolter a platform, however, now I'm not so sure.

Did you see the photo of his dad playing with the lepard in the private animal zoo? what did you think? and then there was photo of a soldier holding up a European oil painting of a nude reclining. I was a little pissed off at the hypocrosy. And then the little private hanging room and now they found 3,000 people in a mass grave. It's totallly unnatural!

Time to buy a TV!

The showing last night was better but I think they missed the whole point of Hitler.

IMO the thing that everyone needs to know about Hitler is that he was NOT crazy, and that he knew killing Jews was okay, but he just did it anyways to gain power. (the scapegoat tactic) Yet the show portrayed him as a man who did not know what he was doing was wrong. It portrayed Hitler as a man who loved his country and that was why he wanted power. And that he thought whatever helps me fix Germany is fine, and that Jews really were the problem.

Just my two cents.

sorry about my posts, i've been staying up till 4 or 5 in the morning, and also i think my keyboard and harddrive are really old and so lots of errors.

The Hitler thing is very scary; he actually killed over 6 million people and managed to talk other world leaders into following his political schema, such as Stalin and Mussolini was right there on the band-wagon, sort of.

The incredible part is knowing that an entire nation of people could agree to committing crimes together. The part that we are dealing with now are the decendants of those people, and their guilt as well as their propensity towards crime. However, we also have to realize it's not just Germany/Russia/Italy, it's the world, and the human mind which is fragile and mallable and easily swayed by threat. It is a rare person that can withstand to stand again the tide and say no to despotic leadership. In Africa, for example in recent history; entire villages subscribed to the same ideas and rampaged killing nearly 500,000 people from a different tribe. Their bodies left floating in Lake Victoria, causing cholera, typhus and other diseases to ravage the areas. War is followed by disease and accompanied by storms. They say that Hitler's followers escaped to South America; it is probably the reason many nations such as Argentina and Chile have shown
levels of intolerance over the past 30 years, and have only recently settled back down.

I think it's a disease of the mind; a deluded mental condition that takes over a person and is closely associated with mania, giving the person the appearance of strengh and power, which is bolsters by illogical theoretical texts such as beliefs in things that are clearly unreal; so that the person tries to 'believe in' or enter into his logical brain structure, illogical information and eventually that person becomes mad.

My only consolation is knowing that the law of cause and effect will either demolish them entirely, or at the very least cause a wart to grow on their nose. [i took out continuously, it's a little too harsh]


Yes, it is time to buy a T.V.
