Before anyone says it, Godwin arguments are important so that WWII and the holocaust never happen again. So if you dismiss this as a Godwin argument, then you love Hitler.
IMHO, we are headed in that direction but not quite there yet. Yes, 9/11 was similar to the Reichstag, yes the weapons of mass destruction and al queda lies were similar to the lies justified to invade Poland, yes the rhetoric is basically cut and pasted. So yes, we are absolutely headed in that direction. The Tenat NYTimes article is interesting. I'll read the rest later.
