Hitler, weird dude. He liked to sleep in very cold rooms, by the way.
He inspires a lot of morbid interest. One Frankfurt school associate, Erich Fromm, believed he was a necrophiliac.

I like to sleep in cold rooms too! Does that mean I will invade russia and blame all problems on the jews and the gays?Hitler, weird dude. He liked to sleep in very cold rooms, by the way.
Finished another two:
What Every Person Should Know About WAR by Hedges - It's a bit morbid and unsettling to read. Basically, it's structured in a question-and-answer and describes army recruitment, service, getting shot and shelled, what happens to your body if you die on the field, etc. and it's sourced to army manuals, literature, and news reports for casualty statistics. Chickenhawks should be reading this.

Yeah in my experience, once you really delve into what war - any war - means - themes of good and bad sides tend to evaporate into shallow nothingness.
"Assad is evil - we will show him and what is right be killing thousands and thousands of families. I mean, by killing hundreds of evil people and thousands and thousands of families by accident."
The recent French hits did - as I predicted- kill many innocents. No one reports about that.
But hooray vengeance and justice!
It's such an absurd world.
*giggles*I gave up on the Churchill biography in about 1938. It was simply repetitive.
So today I started Hitler at Home, which examines Hitler's various apartments and so on in terms of interior decorating. The author views this as another side of Hitler's deliberate manipulation of his pubic image.

Why? Theirs aren't the bodies in bags. So long as the defense contractors get their money, Congress gets its money, and everybody is happy save for the dead kid and his family.
I read Hedges once...Empire of Illusion. I found it dispiriting and now avoid him.
