Bush family aided Hitler

Disclaimer first: No, I do not support Bush in any way, shape, or form. (Well, okay, if the guy was walking across the street in front of me and got hit by a car and landed at my feet and pleaded "help?" I'd call 911. But that's about it.)

Now then -- the thing about connecting thus-and-such an unpopular person to the Nazis reminds me a little too much of that weird craze circulating on the political right in the 1990s, when they were trying to connect all sorts of random deaths to the Clintons. You remember that -- web sites, emails, etc. were growing like weeds, with long lists of people who had died under various circumstances, and then they'd say something ominious about their connection with the Clintons. The idea was clearly that you were supposed to think Bill was systematically killing off his opponents. But in reality, many of the items on the list ran more like

"Lisa Ann Pembleton died after choking on a piece of ice when she was drinking a Starbuck's iced espresso in Washington in 1994. Back in the 1950's, she and Bill Clinton were partners in the third grade science fair."

It was a dishonest smear campaign, in other words.

Now, not that there aren't people who profited from doing business with the Nazis, but I'm seeing signs of "they did business with the Nazis" becoming the next "they knew the Clintons". Just as it was easy for someone giving the death list a quick read and saying "wow, look at all the people who knew the Clintons and died!" and being manipulated into a conclusion, it's easy to manipulate someone into a conclusion about someone just by saying "they did business with the Nazis".

This has all been a very rambling way of saying, unless it's iron-clad evidence of a strong connection, I just fear this is propaganda, and the sort of propaganda that doesn't quite sit well with me.

(Another disclaimer: I can't see the video, so I don't know what evidence has been presented. But I'd still be a little on the skeptical side.)

More of same, plus bin Laden...

Oh, it's like that, is it? Gotcha.
