The portrayal of the collected al Qaeda writings as a Mein Kampf may be imprecise, sure. But when Hitler's Mein Kampf was written he was in prison, a failed revolutionary, pretty much written off as a crackpot, and nobody except him and a few followers would have predicted his rise to leadership of Germany. That part of the comparison doesn't sound so absurd on the face of it. Probably, like Hitler, al Qaeda leaders are mixing together justifications of their past acts, mobilization tactics for the public at large, and self-aggrandizing predictions to bolster their own symbolic importance.

HI ,

The conditions in Germany allowed a bunch of extremly evil perosns to take over and they intially delivered what the German people needed i.e economic balance and then they concentrated on creating a scapegoats of jews and murdered most of them .

Islam by itself is a miltant religion and is not tolerant of any other culture or practice .From its history we can make out it is very similiar to Nazism and beleives that what it preaches should be practiced and those who dont will be killed or enslaved .Those who dont come to its metrics also would be killed since they are subhuman and GOD has sanctioned that and it is legitimate.This apsect clearly outlines that Islam is like Nazism which was dormant till now but is rearing its ugly head. Look over History and there are enough examples , armenians being murdered enmasse, jews , Hindus , Buddhists and other so called pagans in Iran and other places .

George Bush is right in this .I know lots of others wont accept but this ism can be defeated once there is an alternative to OIL dependancy and i am sure this will happen in the next one or two decades and the west which knows what is the diffrence between freedom and hold of ism will play a major role in making the Human race much more safer from its own contradictions.
