I don't like them because they gave us Hitler, World War II, and the Holocaust, which now provides 95% of the History Channel's content.
Of course, WWII was also partly Italy and Japan's fault, and Austria was also to blame for Hitler.
Do you know how many "indians" that were killed when America was colonized? Do you know that the US provoked a war against Mexico 1846 and took more than 52% av the country, namely today's California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and most of Wyoming, Colorado and Texas? Do you know that Russians that remained in Alaska after Russia sold it to the United States 1867 were harrassed by American settlers for no reason at all except for being Russians?
Do you know that British and American bombers attacked the city of Dresden 13-15 February 1945 and killed over 100000 defenseless German civilians? The city was of no military importance, nor were there any high nazis leaders hiding there. The city was attacked just for being one of the most beautiful in Germany and to break the German fighting spirit. Oh, and did you know that your ally Stalin killed 20 million of his own people, and that that didn't even had to do with the war at all? And, by the way, who dropped the only two atomic bombs that have yet ever been used against human beings?
Who let assasinate Salvador Allende in Chile 1973? Who helped to arm Saddam and Osama before they turned their backs on you?
Which country has a president who thinks that general Musharrafs (president of Pakistan) first name is "General"?
For your information I: Most old nazis and those who voted for them are dead by now.
For your information II: If you don't want to hear about WWII and Hitler, blame History Channel and organisations like JDL, who think that the wrongs done to the Jews are worse than wrongs made to any other people.
