[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hitler also thought he was doing the right thing when he gassed millions.  Same with Pol Pot when he killed 1.5 million Cambodians.[/quote]
Here we go again, trying to compare ethnic cleansing to a civil war mostly due to economics.

You really are desperate.[/quote]

We are talking about the enslavement of millions,  forced labor and dying in captivity for no reason other than their ethnicity so is it really so different? [/quote]
Apparently you don't understand the difference between ethnic cleansing and slavery.  One wants to totally eradicate the entire existence of an ethnic group and the other wants the ethnic group to procreate and be productive.  One group is seen as useless and the other useful.[/quote]

Sick and illegitimate to shrug off forced labor as "economics"

Slavery was systemic and pursued the entirety of black people in the south and negated them by denying them any rights, and in fact denying them their very humanity. And many were in fact executed when their owners felt they were no longer useful.  They didnt care about procreation until the source of slaves via importation dried up, prior to that they didn't care.   It was pure racism and exploitation.

No amount of semantics or rationalization on your part will ever lessen how heinous it was, or how horrific it would have been for the millions of blacks affected at the time.  I don't see it as any better than what Stalin or Pol Pot did.

You also forget that many Jews were first put to forced labor by the Nazis.  They were put to death when they got too sick or weak to work.http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10005180  Just economics,  right? [/quote]
