And of whom are you speaking when making reference to the "small groups of dominant men"? I happen to agree, but I am not sure we are on the same page or even reading the same book. Are we speaking in terms of the, then small groups of dominant men that led the Germans to believe they had no choice but to go to war, or are we talking about the small group of men that took them to war? Perhaps under mis-information?

your choice... you pick it and decide for yourself. I refuse to be your influence...because with free will comes free choice to decide how you will interpret anything. I only present the facts. So "we're" not talking about anything. If you agree...then so be it. If you disagree...then so be it too. But I will never be responsible for the choices you make to either agree or disagree. And that my friend is called freedom...or free will.
