Despite all evidence to the contrary.

That should have been business as usual in Germany, a miracle in Italy.

In fact, too much of a miracle to be true. It was a lie, Fascist propaganda. Italian train service was in shambles after WW1 and, when the Fascists took power, they made a big show of their accomplishments, including the myth about the trains. The improvements to rail service in Italy after the war had been substantial but they had been accomplished under the Italian government immediately preceding Mussolini's.

And the trains still didn't run on time.

I believe a somewhat parallel to that was the autobahn in Germany.

Yes, begun in Weimar Germany, sputtered along until Hitler came to power and then progressed somewhat more rapidly until WW2 when construction essentially stopped, finished after the war.

Whether it was Hitler or Mussolini isn't the point.

The point is, you're willing to excuse murder, mayhem, beheadings and rapes because somebody living in some shithole corner of Mosul can flush their toilet since ISIS took over. It's no different from the majority of Germans having been more than happy as pigs in shit to support the sociopaths taking over in Germany in 1933...and the rest of the world finding it convenient to look the other way.

And then you act all surprised and miffed when the children and grandchildren of the holocaust in Israel decide the last thing they're going to do is trust that anybody besides themselves are particularly interested in their survival.

The design sucks there should be a clue as to what to do at the top.

Very interesting videos, though.

It is not fair to claim he's willing to excuse anything. He was just pointing out what is happening, sharing some facts as to what is going on in the territory.

Thanks, DQ, but I'm just grateful that he said I was "excusing" beheadings and not "endorsing" them.

Then let him say it's inexcusable. You and I both know he won't. Since the only people who inexcusably support their murderous leaders are Israeli Jews.
