From a blog I frequent... interesting parallel, perhaps, especially if
you compare the Iran-Iraq war and the invasion of Kuwait with Hitler's
pre-1939 maneuvering?


If, in 1937, Franklin D. Roosevelt would have invaded Germany, captured
Hitler, neutralized the Nazi party, and dismantled the standing
military, thus saving europe from the ravages of war, genocide, and
crimes against humanity, then the United States would have been
condemned in shame by the world as an imperialist nation of pre-emptive
aggressors, and FDR would have been cast out of office in the subsequent
election.

....and yet, he would have been a Genius who was never celebrated for it.

Assuming, of course, that the Germans just roll over and let it happen.
You'd probably end up with vicious bands of guerrillas a lot worse than the
Nazis. Imagine what kind of suicide bombers Germans would make.
