  PATRIOT ACT

Digging through a large stamp collection I purchased in an estate sale, I                           came across a familiar face. At first, I was perplexed, frozen. I feared that                           touching, not to mention licking an actual object of the Nazi evil machine                         will somehow affect me, that a stamp can be contagious. Having created                       Philatelic Meditations, a comic strip of dialogues between Abe Lincoln                   and Jimi Hendrix stamps, I made sure that the Hitler stamp I found                         properly apologize, convert to Judaism and join the Israeli extreme Right.                     But as Hitler & Me series was done, many more world leaders came to me                             and demanded to join the conversation, and with a few exceptions I                       agreed. I hope that you'll enjoy such patriotism.

 At the end of WWII, with the approval of Stalin as many as two million                             German women were raped by Russian soldiers in the largest mass rape in                         human history. On the western front, American soldiers raped approx.                   11,000 women.          

 

 As kids, Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were regularly beaten by their                       alcoholic fathers. It was common for Stalin to have blood in his urine due                           to the heavy beatings.             

                 

 

 Both Hitler and Stalin suffered from severe manic­depressive personality                 disorder. Hitler’s personal doctor, Theodor Morell, prescribed him with                 more than 70 types of drugs, including cocaine, crystal meth and bull                       semen injections. As Hannah Arendt suggest, it’s not about lunatic                   dictators, but about the banality of millions of ordinary people who follow                       them.        

 

 In order to deprive the guerrillas of their rural support base by destroying                         the ability of peasants to feed themselves in the countryside,the U.S army                         sprayed nearly 20 million gallons of poisonous chemicals on farmland and                     forests during Vietnam War. As a result, hundreds of thousands in                     Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos experienced starvation and malnutrition,               millions of people are still suffering from various illnesses and the Red                       Cross estimate that 150,000 birth defects have occurred. Only forty years                     after the war the US took limited responsibility for the act.
