How evil triumphs<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"AdoIf Hitler's totalitarianism and his maniacal drive to remake the world in his own image have a distinctly 20th-century feel about them, they also remain a stark warning in our new century,\" writes James Laxer, political science professor in 快播视频's Atkinson Faculty of Liberal and Professional Studies, in an opinion piece in The Globe and Mail<\/i> Jan. 29. \"A lifetime after he took power, exclusionism, ethnic cleansing, genocide and the idolization of leaders who seem to be able to solve problems through force are very much a part of our world. And the weapons Hitler deployed were mere toys in comparison to the weapons today's great states possess.\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
