Charles Rangel Compares Iraq War To The Holocaust [Say Anything]
Saddam Hussein murdered hundreds of thousands of his countrymen and buried them in shallow mass graves, yet America's soldiers are guilty of a holocaust.
Its enough to make a guy want to puke.
To be fair, I think Rangel was trying to compare the "world's silence" about what he is undoubtedly perceiving as atrocities in Iraq to the world's silence about the holocaust in Nazi Germany during the first part of WWII. But still, he's drawing a comparison between the Nazi's occupation of parts of Europe and America's occupation of Iraq, which is, to any sensible person, beyond the pale.
