Including my post where i say it was A cause not THE cause. To attribute any war to just one thing is usually silly, few of any wars are ever started over just one thing. And maybe you forget that hitler was promising the germans a restored faith in their country, to give them back the pride which they loved. After the war they were fucking ashamed. The treaty of versailles was an huge insult to a grave injury. The harsh terms of it crushed their moral, hitler capitalized on the times and made huge bold statements that germans wanted to hear. He promised them the rise of the germans again, i think he promised them the third reich, the germans third coming as a super power, and basically ignored the treaty later on and raised german pride even more, the hatred towards the allies of the post war was probably up there with their hated for the jews. Hell, i would be pissed too if i got treated so unfairly and i would want some revenge and to feel some damn pride in my country again. Hitler capitalized on that mentally, the pride in ones nation and the desire for revenge to help achieve his personal goals. As i said, it's not the only factor, but it is a factor. | ||

The germans entered that war too if you don't remember, it just so happens that the germans lost becuase the U.S. decided to enter the war aswel. And ofcoarse i would be pissed, but i would also try to use my fucking head and plan for the future, like monroe did. League of nations, world peace, etc. To preserve the safety of the future. France and Britain just wanted revenge. Why should germany pay for france and britains war aswel as their own? That doens't make sense unless it was completely their fault, which it wasn't. Also the germans werent aggressors in WW1 you dolt, they were in WW2 with the appeasement and polish blitzkrieg. They didn't do that shit before WW1, they did it before WW2, get your facts strait please. If they tried being aggressive earlier then they would of been the cause, but assasination of archduke frans ferdinand was the trigger that set it all off, but once again, it's no thte only factor. If germany was aggressive it would of set off the war MUCH sooner then just 1 person dieing, regardless of how important they were. if someone murdered your wife/brother/sister/mother/father wouldnt you want to sue the mother fucker to no end? wouldnt you want them to suffer? it isnt about pride, it is about mother fucking justice and once again if i'm leading a country i would do whats best for it, since thats an impersonal role. I would do whats best for my nation by trying to forge a peace. If someone were to kill my mom i would seek revenge ont he individual, not the entire country where they are from. Keep that in mind. do you let a country get away with an act of aggression with no punishment? HELL NO Once again your argueing the wrong war. | ||

You can't compair something personal like the murder of family members to something as impersonal as a war with a country. People have faces personalities and loved ones, therefore murder becomes a very personal thing. War is very general and on a mass scale. Its very impersonal, thats why there is war atrocities, disgusting things that are happen, it takes the humanity from people. and once again if i'm leading a country i would do whats best for it, since thats an impersonal role. I would do whats best for my nation by trying to forge a peace. If someone were to kill my mom i would seek revenge ont he individual, not the entire country where they are from. Keep that in mind. Once again your argueing the wrong war. germans were agressors in WW1, u think just the assassination of the arch duke was the cause of a war? It was merely an excuse, conveneint cause to the war. the rise of nationalism before that era is one of the causes, the assassination just kicked off the events. i gotta leave work now so i cant really go in depth at the moment, but when i have time, i will respond to this more clearly. if u are telling others to brush up on history, you should do it yourself. all your facts are just barely scratches the surface. there was alot more than just the assassination that started the first world war... god damn, this is the product of US history courses through public education, a piece of shit learning ~~ | ||

I had to go through those classes so I know all the crap he's bringing up, and I know it's all bullshit. Prussia and France were headed towards war, no matter what anyone else did.

Oh, and for the 30th fucking time, i do not believe a war is caused by 1 thing, like the assasination. Its usually a collective amount of things. But germany was not aggressive before WW1, otherwise that would of triggered the war wouldn't it? If things were on such a boiling point before WW1 that one guy getting shot set into motion the war, then you think germany taking stuff over before that would set some people off. Maybe they did and i'm just not aware, if so please link me to some sources o_O | ||

I hear good-natured exchanges ranging from calling someone "as gaunt as a Jew in Auschwitz" to references to gas chambers to jokes about someone (of Jewish background) being like Hitler. No one on my hall finds these types of jokes offensive; in fact, I don't know a single Jewish person who is "still sensitive as hell" about the Holocaust. The Jewish people I know mourn the Holocaust, but none of them believe that the German people are evil. and when it comes to atrocities, the japanese did it to everyone in asia, not just the korean. go ask some chinese or philipino nationality person what they think of them I've asked my (born and raised for many years in China) Chinese girlfriend how she feels about the Japanese. She doesn't hate them, she doesn't despise them, she doesn't hold any grudge against them. I've talked to many other Chinese and Korean people, and none of them have ever had a systematic hate or distrust of Japanese people. (Disclosure: most of the rest of them were native-born Americans of Chinese or Korean ethnicity.) -_-;; or better yet, something more close to home. the blacks who suffered all the way up until the 1970s (or even now is arguable) and tell em that theey are overreacting, their racist and their mistrust of the white man is unjustified.... are they fucking this ignorant also? Many blacks are not racist at all; many of them don't "mistrust ... the white man." Granted, there are many American blacks who do resent white people and who do hold racist views, just as there are many whites who hold racist views. This in no way makes their views valid. Justified, arguably, but not valid. And yes, if a black person told me that white people are evil because of slavery, I would believe that he was ignorant. If you are current with the American political scene, then you've probably heard of Jeremiah Wright. I believe he is ignorant. (I also believe that he is an idiot, but that isn't relevant to this discussion.) the native americans would belong here too, but most of em were killed off thanks to your ancestors. I'm a member of the Cherokee nation. (Disclosure: I am also white. No, I don't hate myself.) I mourn the Trail of Tears, I mourn the deaths of my ancestors, and I mourn the destruction of thousands of lives, Cherokee or other. However, I most definitely don't hold any grudge against white people. To do so would be to live in the past; nothing I do can change the fact that abuses were leveled against my people. I could grow bitter and hate the descendants of those who helped kill my people, but this does nothing but perpetuate hate. Instead, I remember what happened so that I can help ensure that it doesn't happen again. I remember the Holocaust so that I can help ensure that it doesn't happen again. I remember slavery and segregation so that I can help ensure that it doesn't happen again. I try to remember the abuses of all peoples throughout history so that I can help ensure that they don't happen again. But remaining angry over them? No. Hating people because of what their ancestors did is foolish. In the best case, you irrationally hate people. In the worst case, you rationalize abusing them because of the past. As far as I'm concerned, this is a lose-lose situation. | ||
