Din Rodef: "...But it is not Christian Western thinking and this causes SERIOUS conflict when it comes to teaching history with a Christian Western perspective..."
Din Rodef, it seems that we find a large area of agreement.
Our historical perspectives of The Third Reich differ only slightly.
I hope we can both agree on the adage that Jews are "the canary in the coal mine".
As we see today, whenever the spectre of Jew-hatred suddenly becomes a world-wide phenomenon, a new global conflagration is imminent.
Theodore Herzl, the 19th Century Austrian journalist credited today with the political philosophy known as modern Zionism, made many keen observations regarding the place of the Jew within gentile societies.
History has since reconfirmed these views and vindicated his perspectives.
Herzl wrote "...Anti-Semitism, is a permanent feature of Western civilization...it is always present..subtly underneath the thin veneer of "civilized society"..."it manifests full strength whenever periods of social unrest and/or political confusion take place; which occur in cyclical episodes every generation or two"..."hatred and scapegoating of the Jew, is the only constant in European philosophy and politics" [my paraphrase of Herzl's quote].
Of course, if one is to attempt to destroy Western Christian Civilization, it is The Jew who must first and foremost be discredited and destroyed; Christianity and Christian society will afterwards tumble over like dominoes once the very basis of belief in G-d and morality are done away.
Hitler's Socialism basically differed from that of Marxism/Leninism/Stalinism only to the extent that Nazism is based solely on race being the determinant of which group is to receive the full political benefits of the socialist system.
The more ideologically pure Russian Socialism stressed the equality of all races and sexes within an international proletarian brotherhood.
Of course, numerous other variants, such as the role of women, etc., are obvious, but Socialism essentially is Totalitarianism.
Socialism always seeks Empire through military conquest preceded by socio-economic-political subversion; including the use of terror as a tactic.
Once in place, the BIG LIE of Socialist Theory becomes apparent to all.
The citizenry is disarmed and enslaved.
A new class of "commisars" receive entitlement to the highest standard of living with all of its accoutrements.
Socialism's "masses" (the other class) do what they are told, or face punishment.
In a nutshell, capitalism & free enterprise allow individuals to make their own decisions and benefit from their own labor and enterprise; Socialism merely shifts all decisions, benefits, enterprise, and wealth, to a miniscule elite political ruling class.
Most interesting, as Herzl succinctly noted, is that both systems insist that it is The Jew responsible for their shortcomings.
Perhaps this is because in their most pure sense, both Capitalism and Socialism are amoral at their very roots; using the front of "benefit to society as a whole" to mask their innate greed and selfishness.
