So then the return of the Bushits would *not* be "something very close to fascism?" (By the way, doesn't the entire US political establishment act terrified of the "threatening Communist neighbor" 90 miles away, whereas the entire German political/military establishment was not only not threatened by the famine-ridden USSR of 1932 but more than happy with the military cooperation of the USSR in evading the Versailles limitations and also happy both with the consistently pro-German foreign policy of Stalin and his domestic persecution of the real Communists?)
