Brokaw apparently asked Obama “what Israel could learn from Buchenwald,” and Obama responded that there was no equivalency.

The lesson is grim and stark. Books such as Mein Kampf are not just a way of letting off steam. They’re templates for action.

The clouds gather again. The Sayings of Chairman Ahmadinejad are thinly veiled second editions of Mein Kampf.

Can we say that Iran just wouldn’t do anything of the sort; they’re a civilized society with all sorts of culture? Maybe so. Maybe Iran has sense enough not to hitch its star to the meteoric mayor of Tehran. Meteors, after all, go down in flames.
