Makes me think of Eddie Izzard's bit on this:

The reason we let them get away with it because they were killing their own people. And we're sort of fine with that. "Help yourself, we've been trying to kill you people for ages, so you start killing your own people..." But Hitler killed people next door...the stupid man. After a couple of years we won't stand for that now will we?!

    Izzard's delivery of that segment is superb.

    I mean all Izzard's delivery is gold, but that "the stupid man" bit is magic.
