The Daily Bush Administration Hitler Reference, 9/5/06: Osama Is Hitler


Bush: Bin Laden's intentions as clear as Hitler's

http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/05/bush.terrorism.ap/index.html

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush used terrorists' own words Tuesday to battle complacency among Americans about the threat of future attack, defending his record as the fall campaign season kicks into high gear.

Quoting from letters, Web site statements, audio recordings and videotapes purportedly from terrorists, as well as documents found in various raids, Bush said that despite the absence of a successor on U.S. soil to the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the terrorist danger remains potent.

"Bin laden and his terrorists' allies have made their intentions as clear as Lenin and Hitler before them," the president said before the Military Officers Association of America and diplomatic representatives of other countries that have suffered terrorist attacks. "The question is `Will we listen? Will we pay attention to what these evil men say?"'

Bush said that al Qaeda has been weakened, with its leaders finding it harder to operate freely, move money or communicate with operatives. But, he said the terrorist network has adapted to U.S. defenses by increasingly using the Internet to spread propaganda, recruit new terrorists and conduct training. In addition, the movement has become more dispersed, with local cells more self-directed and responsible for more attacks.

2. How odd, I thought the VP and SOD thought Sen. Boxer and Dennis Kucinich
were Hitler... Oh, wait! They're Neville Chamberlain, how confused one gets.

has basically just said Osama is free to live out his life there w/o interference? What happened to "Dead or Alive"?

FDR and then Truman didn't back off on Hitler though they did let Stalin be the one that had Hitler cornered in his bunker with no way out other than suicide.

4. It's clear who the terorists are according to Mr. Bush
But, he said the terrorist network has adapted to U.S. defenses by increasingly using the Internet to spread propaganda, recruit new terrorists and conduct training. In addition, the movement has become more dispersed, with local cells more self-directed and responsible for more attacks.


Please shut down the internet!:argh::sarcasm:

6. I liked when he brought up "Mein Kampf" and said something
about ignoring Hitler when here he had laid out his whole plan in his book. It made me think of the PNAC document, mentioning a "new Pearl Harbor" and how that's been ignored.
