cont. Which is clearly what he was doing here. On a lighter note, Mel Brooks slips silly dancing Nazis into his films using a similar brand of wry wit. When a Jew can Mock Nazis we are taking the street back!
He is satirizing the Nazi argument and contempory argument that "all is fair in love and war "can vindicate even what the Nazis did.The Nazis brand of evil was the banality of it.You have revisionists and sympathisers who will compare bombing of Dresden to their kind of civilian killing and say it was the same.The aims were different.Yet to one who would downplay Eichmann it's simple to state that his sins are the same as your own -masking and making more palpable what they felt was justified.
The greatest comedian off all time-period and end of this discussion. If it wasn't for him and Red Foxx as well; would Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Rodney Dangerfield, Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence, and a host of others use the F and S word to get a laugh? The answer is no (the same goes with Mort Stahl for bringing politics into comedy). And oh yes: Like John F. Kennedy, Bruce died just to let the 60's happen-for better or for worse.

FYI for any ignorant fools out there, Lenny Bruce was Jewish, and he knew what he was talking about.

He was the first person to hold up the hypocrisy of mainstream ideals and also make you see the idiocy behind it......

This is not funny Erica. I am not a Jew but that would be considered way over the top even today.
