It is not logical to attribute to a small group of industrialists the
failings of our country and politicians to head Hiller off earlier.


Ford was largely responsible for expanding the German industrial base
which was instrumental in Hitler's war effort. Ford was looking for
cheaper labor, but those plants were quickly converted to roll out
tanks.

Lindbergh was a paid consultant to the Germans, helping them set up
the Luftwaffe. He was enamored by their Spartan-like military
discipline.

I challenge anyone to show how any left-wing groups had anything to do
in supporting Hitler.


The American industrialists were helping rebuild a Germany recovering
from WW1. Not satisfied with that Hitler derailed that whole process of
nation rebuilding into building an army in an expansionist move not
unlike what happened to us with Saddam Hussein in Iraq. The Germans were
able to prosecute the war as they saw fit because we as a nation did not
stop them once Hitlers war plans were put in motion. We almost waited to
long to win that war and many more American soldiers died because of
that and europe paid a heavy price.

I just watched Defiance and I highly recommend it.
