...have killed so many Jews at Treblinka. Hitler? A mass murderer, Buchanan admits in a 1977 piece, but a man of "great courage" and "a soldier's soldier." If it matters to you that you don't leave the impression that you are carrying a torch for the Fuhrer, that's a judgment you frame in such a way as to leave no doubt about your feelings. And if it doesn't matter to you? With all that as prelude, it may no longer be necessary for Buchanan to practice an explicit anti-Semitism. The name game is enough...
...high esteem...is apparent to everyone...At Garmisch-Partenkirchen last week, much too occupied to engage in her customary practice of skiing up & down hill in a bathing suit to acquire a tan, she was even busier than usual, keeping an expert Nazi eye on winter sports for Fuhrer Hitler and giving visitors to Germany a startling picture of what he thinks German girls should...
...BOSNIAN SERB LIVING IN CANADA, I resent your depiction of Radovan Karadzic as "the Bosnian Serbs' fuhrer" in your report "Now It's Serb Against Serb" [WORLD, Jan. 22]. Blame should be placed on Alija Izetbegovic and Franjo Tudjman as well. They have done the same amount of damage to the people of the former Yugoslavia as has Karadzic.

History repeating itself as farce? We should be so lucky.

Past and present reminders of that madness now reach us with context-blurring frequency. Contemporary television images of skinheads tattooed with swastikas and the firebombed houses of Germany's Turkish immigrants regularly cross paths with rerun footage of Brownshirts rampaging...
...FOUR YEARS, RADOVAN KARADZIC was the Bosnian Serbs' fuhrer. The self-proclaimed President of the Republika Srpska defied the world, and his course as leader was as unrestrained as his trademark double-winged haircut. A psychiatrist and sometime poet, Karadzic based his implacable ideology on ethnic purity and enforced it with paramilitary storm troopers who intimidated moderate Serbs and used brutality and terror to drive Muslims out of his lands. But last week it was clear that his authority as voice of his people was at an end. He could barely command the attention of a group of fellow Bosnian...
