re: #66 ProGunLiberal

In list of how much each offend me:

1:Support for Jonathan Pollard
2:Comments on Arabs
3:Resistance to Oslo Accords
4:Controversy over Hitler comments
5:Banned from Britain

Reaction to other Likud members doesn’t have any effect. The other 5 are very, very close in offensiveness.

Here’s #4:

Controversy over Hitler comments

In an article in Ha’aretz, Yossi Sarid quoted Feiglin as saying, “Hitler was an unparalleled military genius. Nazism promoted Germany from a low to a fantastic physical and ideological status. The ragged, trashy youth body turned into a neat and orderly part of society and Germany received an exemplary regime, a proper justice system and public order. Hitler savored good music. He would paint. This was no bunch of thugs. They merely used thugs and homosexuals.” Feiglin clarified his position to the Maariv newspaper that just because he considers Hitler a military genius this does not mean he admires him. In an interview on Israeli television Feiglin accused Sarid and other left-wing journalists of a smear campaign against him by quoting him out of context. He explained his point as saying that just because Germany was a democracy does not give legitimacy to what Hitler had done.
