When I was young, I devoted quite a bit of study to Adolf Hitler and Nazi
Germany. The reason for my fascination is now certainly clear, if it was
even the slightest bit murky then. My efforts were to answer that one
question that haunts us all in our attempts to deconstruct such depravity

ideology of militant proselytism, and how could that one man mold a legion

How are we to understand the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement? Is it, as
