Me too, using words at random is no help.

I wouldnt call the Nazis `Evil` I think the word is best for something simple and ultimatley self destructive.

The Khymer rouge.

You could say that the Nazis were self destructive...they did end up that way.

But it wasnt deliberate.

Or You could say that they were self destructive in that they in all likleyhood would not have been able to form a stable society.

Yes, and that is also accurate. They were famed for having some rather exotic characters, werent they? Laughing

Im trying to remember where I read the Nazis described as `What happens when the insane and eccentric get into power.`????

But, as one of the Outsiders of the world, I can take an even view of such a political experiment

Erik Jan Hanussen

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Jan_Hanussen

I am baffled this guy wasn't mentioned in this thread - it is an interesting story from the early days of the Nazi Regime - even pre-dating it to a point.

He was a the top Occultist to the Nazis - and a Jew - organised large loans and the odd sex party for SA top brass - and unsurprisingly didn't live to tell the tale...

There isn't much out there in English though - this is the best I could find:
