Springtime for Hitler

Springtime for Hitler is a joke, but imagine if someone actually made the film.
Well, not exactly for Hitler, but for another mass murderer whose exploits put Hitler to shame.

MariaElena, who should know better, checks out the movie and reviews of the 2007 movie about Genghis Khan, Mongol, which all are positive.

The most powerful element of the film is Temudgin's relationship with Borte, the young girl who against all odds becomes his wife and the mother of a dynasty. Borte's fiery love for Temudgin knows no bounds...Theirs is a love which endures every test and emerges stronger than ever.

Right. Hitler loved his Mistress, and Adolph Eichman was a family man too.

Or as the UKGuardian;sPhilip French wrote:

• His name is a byword for cruelty, but a biopic of Genghis Khan depicts him as a god-fearing family man with politics akin to Tony Blair's

He even stopped global warming!

The deaths of 40million people meant that large areas of cultivated land grew thick once again with trees, which absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

And, although his methods may be difficult for environmentalists to accept, ecologists believe it may be the first ever case of successful manmade global cooling.

ThenAndNow blog has a list of his murders, rapes, massacres, and destruction of cities and infrastructure if you have the stomach to read it.

But later, the result was "free trade" and revival of the conquered lands, so apparently all is forgiven. This is similar to the lack of outrage over Mao's millions of dead. He helped the Chinese get rich, so why worry that 30 million starved by his policies or killed by the Red Guard or died in his gulag?

And presumably our children would be watching fuzzy glamourous films about the founding of the Third Reich if Hitler had played his cards right.

Sacha Cohen has been banned from attending the Oscars. for fear he would show up dressed like the hero of his latest film

The Dictator, described as "the heroic story of a dictator who risked his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed"...

However, I suspect if you dress up like a decadent nun accompanied by someone dressed like the pope, you will be allowed in and even feted for your daring.
