****ING REBELLION???? WE'RE A FREE STATE YOU ****
Sorry but we hurt about these things. You don't rebel against someone who has no control over you.
I'll go and have a nice lie down now...
Edit: jsut read the rest of your post. So it was also ok for Hitler to do what he did, otherwise Germany would have just died as a world power? Jesus man: the way you justify things is almost comical!
