Good points. Another factor making Nazis far more powerful than terrorists is that they were a government, sponsored by a recognized country, with all the resources that gave them, and a tightly organized and disciplined military. Terrorists are a ragtag band of individual zealots with no discipline or structure aside from some cursory organization. A sad fact is that while Isis (the largest and most powerful faction) lacks a great leader on a par with Hitler, we have given them back all their generals who once languished in Gitmo, including their supreme leader MacDaddy, er, I mean Bagdadi (however it's spelled), and each time they take another country they amass whatever military equipment that country has. And while they can't conquer major Western countries in direct traditional combat, that's not the way they roll. It's all about the terror strikes and hiding among their people as shields. They can easily use the well-established porousness of America's southern border to get their operatives in without needing to pass through any type of airport security or get passports or anything of the sort. And apparently they already have ties with the Mexican cartels that are getting people across that border, as well as already having hundreds of operatives placed in America and other countries. |
