hey, anyone who has been following the strike on iraq thing on cnn, heres an interesting observation and comparison for you.
Im sure some of you are aware of the German WWII strategy, the blitzgrieg (heavy air strike followed up by fast ground assault), and the americans did the exact same thing. they started with bombers, then followed up after the bombing with heavy ground forces, tanks, troops, etc. what the hell is up with that..?
As for the comparison, the americans have several outstanding features similar to that of the Nazi's, on the news they were arresting civilians for anti-war strikes. what did the nazi's do? arrest those who did not believe in Hitlers vision. another is the strategy the americans used that the germans made up and used in wwII. ive got more but ive said enough already

we'd be the Nazi's wet dream if we were copying the Blitz...ours is of a different nature, we're taking Iraq down from the outside with the military and from the inside with underground crime ring connections.

US CIA->KGB operative->Kazakstan crime boss->Iraqi higherup->US nails Saddam first try

Yes, that's why I'm speaking German right now.

america is not just using old "nazi tactics" but they are also using weapons the nazis have developed (rockets, tankguns, bla-bla).

If this were a genuine Blitzkrieg, we'd be bombing even more than right now, and there would be hordes of American troops in Baghdad blowing the doors off government buildings and raiding everything in sight. We're not quite the Nazis yet.
