Kort,
Your "Accessories To Evil" piece was truly exceptional...even for you. I recently heard Noam Chomsky share many of the same concerns and have to wonder why, as Americans, we are so easily frightened. He felt that it most likely resulted from our restrictive, mind-numbing schooling and the media's emphasis on scary stories. In any case, the irrational fear in Germany that supported Hitler's rise to power may be seen perfectly mirrored in this nation's current spate of flag waving. What goes around....
