Hmmm, yeah! check out all of those 'ideal visions of the future' and how they so succesfully came to pass and gave so much benefit to the rowdy, oppressed pesants who were to thick to understand what they were really letting themselves in for by trusting in those who would lead them to so called freedom; yeh leaders guiding the pesantry to freedom from all of lifes little troubles by making them dead... hearing this, all those pesants must be turning in their mass graves right now.

207BC China - leads eventually to commie dictatorship; kills loads of its people for its brutal ideals (sorry, that's 'cultural revolution' sounds much better when you put it that way).

England 17th Centuary - oliver cromwell, hardly what I'd call a humanitarian; killed those who didn't follow the new ideals.

Early 20th Centuary Russia - commie dictatorship, killed millions (25 million, uncle joe?) of its own people for its brutal ideals.

1930s Germany - declared war on most of the world in the name of national socialism, killed millions of innocent people for its brutal ideals.

The Middle East Early 21st Centuary - religious extreemism and land dispute kills loads of people. Following WW2 there is no other place on earth which has had more continuous violence and bloodshed than the 'holy land' (such an ironic name, at least for an infidel like me). Upshot- kills loads of people for its brutal (holy) ideals.

Are we starting to see a pattern emerging yet?

:hmm:
