you have an interesting version of historical revisionism

One that does not tally with my experience.
Where has Nazism been shaded as white supremacist? If anything the supremacists use the same arguments as the Nazis.

Partly, we fought the Nazis because of "the final solution", though the populace at the time did not know of it. Mostly we (UK) fought to keep from being swept under.

"Neither leader did that, yet they both made brilliant speeches against TOTALITARIANISM and having courage to defeat the forces of EVIL that would deprive individuals of their LIBERTY."
True (and nice try, but this has bugger all relevance to Iraq).

"Isn’t it amazing that in just 50 years historical revisionism has repainted the battle as something that has more to do with race relations than the threats, as they truly existed?"
Name someone or some authority who claims this and then I'll beleive it.

cheers,
Tony
