The answer is quiet simple. WWII occurred in Europe, The memory is still very fresh. When people discuss it in a disparging way it opens alot of old wounds. America itself, aside from the actual combat was untouched by WWII. Its civilian population never experianced Nazi occupation, my Grandmother whose 86 still gets very upset if you mention anything related to the Germans. The Nazi revisionists in the States wound get lynched preaching their garbage here.
Really now?

To say that only America has neo-nazi/racist gourps is kinda silly and, I sure as heck dont see any mass lynchings here or in europe.

Europeans dont like the Death penelty, but if a group of Nazi apologists tried spouting their garbage here, I think they would be a serious chance they would be lynched on the spot.
That statement clearly implies that there are no neo-nazis in Europe.

Is Europe a country, and do they all believe in the same thing "over there"?
They sound like a really nasty nation to me....
Well I was refering to the EU so all Europe that's in the EU and to my knolwedge that's... oh... bascially all of Europe.

But back to the just of my thread. Mmmarsh, I don't think it matters where you live in the world or what your history is. YOU SHOULD KNOW NUKES ARE BAD! VERY BAD! I'm still not understanding how getting nukes and intending to use them on Americans/Europens is something "meh" but say one thing about the holocaust and "Oh it's on!!!"

Is there any logic there because I ain't seeing it?

You know its strange how two people can read something and see a different meaning, I dont come to the same conclusion because it specifically doesnt rule out there being neo-nazi's in Europe I really dont know how to briefly explain the point though.

Well tell me what meaning you take from it and we'll see where we meet.

Lemme give you a highly opinionated view of the REMOVED. They see any act as "cultural imperialism" because of their "unified culture" REMOVED ideaology. "It's not with us, so it has to be against us. Let's insult the REMOVED" is their way of thinking about different world views. Granted, they caught the Iranians in a flat out lie here.

I am surprised this thread lasted this long

deerslayer, your use of generalization is a perfect example of flaming. DO NOT use generalizations when posting, espesially when talking about a sensitive subject. Also, watch your language. You claim to be a teenage intellectual. Vulgarity is anti intelligence.

For the rest of you, I cannot stress the use of tact in posting. Tact is wording something in a way where you get your point across without offending who you are talking to. Anyone who has been in the military understands this concept.
