"I fail to see how facilitating the systematic and cold blooded slaughter of 3,000 refugees is not comparable with Nazi behaviour."

Slightly breaking my promise not to join this thread [not 'otherwise occupied', Jim; just bored!], I would rejoin to this point by ref to the implications of the fine Law propounded by Mr Godwin as to the desperation of achieving adequate arguments which such comparisons on these threads imply; and point out moreover Don's agreement that such usage has an associative element that exceeds the decent boundaries of acceptability. You think it doesn't but it does. Are you really so insensitive as not to perceive how & why such is the case? I should be grieved to think so, and would sincerely like to think better of you than such an intransigent attitude would suggest.
