Haider tried to equate a term that is fundamentally understood to meant a penalty for wrongdoing with the Nazi death camps. With that he tried to distort the reality of the concentration camps.
Do you honestly believe anyone at that debate didn't know what he meant when he said "the punishment camps of National Socialism"?



Oh yes. This is not some case of competing national interests, of people and leaders at odds because they're serving their countries.

Nazi Germany was evil. They were not serving their own interests, even in a wrong way. They were a tool of evil.

A tool of evil, huh? You give them too much credit. There were plenty of governments that utilized genocide before them, and there have been plenty since. The Nazis can't even claim the top body count, not by far.

Someone get this man an Indian to talk to...
