The clips are making fun of Hitler, what is the problem?

Keep pushing the guilt, while Israel gets $100 Billion ++++ since 1949 from the American taxpayer...

In my humble opinion, the microsoft flight simulator one is the best.

> The film itself was criticized for its humanizing portrayal of the Nazi dictator.

I hesitate to be the one pointing this out, but Hitler *was* in fact human. A very evil human, but a human all the same. Humanizing Hitler is therefore perfectly OK: doing so reminds us the depths to which Human evil can plumb, and to where humanity can once again descend if left unchecked.

It is less helpful to view him as a one-off evil inhuman object. We do so at our peril. He can happen again to the human species, if we are not careful

> Now some people are complaining about the YouTube parodies, which play Hitler up for laughs.

Derisiom, mocking and scorn are time-honored ways to treat an enemy. Donald Duck made fun of Hitler in “Der Fuherer’s Face” — probably my all-time favorite cartoon.

These parodies are along the same lines IMO. No harm, no foul.

I sure wish I knew what he was *really* saying. It’s got me interested now. It’s obviously from some movie. Now I’ll have to find out what movie... LOL...

But, from a book I was reading recently, it was said that Hitler had this outbursts and then walked away, laughing about it (with others), as if he was doing so for “show” and to impress upon others what he was trying to get across.

Am I bad for laughing at the Tel Aviv spoof?

And FWIW, Downfall is an excellent film.

LOL - That WAS funny. And apparently Tel Aviv has the same city-planners as my city...

Though the best comment was the following:
Hilarious!! was redirected here from Fox News. I didn't know Israelis had such a wicked sense of humour like us Brits! This video has done more to increase cultural understanding than 70 years of diplomacy. Still laughing!

The funniest one was the one as hitler as a cowboy fan, a year ago when they lost to the Giants in the first round of the playoffs.

This has become a meme. The first one was, I believe, Adolph Hitler: Ruthless Dictator, Die Hard Cowboys Fan.
