| The problem with Hitler was that he was not violent enough, that his violence was not "essential" enough. Nazism was not radical enough, it did not dare to disturb the basic structure of the modern capitalist social space (which is why it had to invent and focus on destroying an external ... |

Taking a beating in a round is a 10-8 round for the opponent. |

| Expensive oil doesn't means viable alternative energy if oil excess profit goes into a few corrupt or lazy hands. |

How the Allies and specifically how Japan treated their POWs show that moral distinction as well Yeah, the fir... |

It may also be an engaging statement, i.e. an openness for someone to convince others from the goodness of an election. |

| Hitchens and Hanson have concentrated their argumentation on the technological aspect of wars. Heidegger had always defended the advent of Hitler over the Western Modernity precisely on this ground. "What is a slaughter of thousands of enemies compared to the technological reduction of man its... |
