It is a peculiar American fascination to continually look for
the next Hitler. Josef Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh and even
Saddam Hussein were all touted at one time or another as
Hitler incarnate. Ahmadinejad is simply the latest figure to
be contemplated for that role. Evidently, many in Washington
simply cannot grasp the fact that Hitler was a uniquely evil
politician and that he is in fact dead. The United States -
the country that won the Cold War and contained its
adversaries - should be able to deter a second-rate power
with an intemperate leader.
