It's not a rule, but a jocular observation. The kind of jocular observations that occur thousands of times every day on forum boards around the web, and usually receive no special attention.
Only this one has been accorded mythical status as some kind of authoritative piece of wisdom, thanks to people who have a vested interest in avoiding the truth. And that truth is that fascism and Nazism differ from "ordinary" capitalist democracy only as a matter of degree; there is nothing that was done by Hitler that, in principle, would never be done by more "enlightened" capitalist states.
Those vested interests want to maintain the myth that Nazism was unique and beyond comparison to anything else that has ever happened. And so they perpetuate an internet meme designed to uphold that mythology.
I don't know why babble would want to have any part of it.

Actually M. Spector, once homework became torture, bosses became Nazis, and the cat became Hitler the only thing it did was render these absolute terms completely meaningless.
And "apartheid" is pretty much in the same pile.
If Israel's crimes are so great, I am sure they can be judged on their own merit. After all, if you are going to talk about something, perhaps you should talk about IT rather than relying on these comparisons to add colour (and confuse things).
Sorry, Godwin (and Seinfeld) had it right.

Thank you for refuting Rebecca's argument above. People saying "this homework is torture" or "murder" trivializes torture and murder? What foolish sophistry.
And "apartheid" is pretty much in the same pile.
If you don't think Israel's treatment of Palestinians is as bad as the South African racists' treatment of black Africans, Indians, and coloreds - why not just say so - instead of hiding behind Rebecca's "historical parallels aren't useful" thesis.
Human beings can't think, analyse, exist, without making comparisons. It's called learning from experience. Those who commit crimes are very pleased not to be compared to their predecessors. [/quote]

Mockery is just one form of resistance. I don't really see why Nazism is such a revered term that it cannot be used as a comparison. I guess comparing anything to old empires like the British or Roman would be off limits under the same theory. Do you think Hitler was as bad as or worse than the Roman empire? Do you think the British Empire was as bad or worse. And then there were the Spanish conquistadors.
Okay now that I think about it no one in history compares to Hitler. After all he was just a short lived flash in the pan compared to the real evil empires.

It should be clear that there is a big war going on all over the Middle East and Central Asia. The area currently called Israel is a strategic point of it, however its importance to the US is now less than in any time in the post-WW2 period, considering the huge number of US military bases all over the region. Rumour has it that the US may even be willing to let Israel go in some kind of Spring/Occupy uprising in that area.
America's continued support of Israel is and will continue to be a constant stumbling block in relations with other states in the region. It might be in the West's interests to cut Israel loose in exchange for peace with many others.
Nice LOLbunny M. Spector. I thought I would comment on that, as an avid fan of the artform myself. Normally, pieces of bread on the heads of animals are associated with "tragically mindless in-breading", or also may be captioned as "Wating for Lord Xenu", as a reference to the Church of Scientology. The pancake, however, is fairly unique, and being comprised of more than just bread materials, may indicate another religion. Being round, further relgious aspirations could be entertained in the caption-writer, as in some kind of 'halo', which might even indicate an Orthodox or Catholic proclivity. Finally, being a "Monorail Rabbit coming through a tunnel", it is subject to any number of quips about not wanting to go to Australia for basic survival reasons.

That's part of it, NS.
It's not that no one compares to Hitler, it is that the name means something distinct in our psyche, and when one uses it, it is not simply in the interests of comparison. And he has a special significance when it comes to Israel which makes it even harder to make any sort of reasonable comparison.
But trying to make comparisons is highly subjective and not a very serious or useful exercise, IMO. Again... expecially when it is Nazi analogies, as Mr. Godwin correctly pointed out.
WRT Israel, you could make a serious comparison with Britain and some of its colonies - certainly as bloody and as racist, even in recent history, and there are more similarities WRT the society and government itself.
We could also say Israel used some of the same policies as Abraham Lincoln - expansionism, allowing racist slave laws in some parts of the country, refusal to recognize the existence of the southern states and working to cause divisions within them, suspension of habeas corpus, blockading their ports, refusal to recognize elected leaders, arresting envoys trying to establish diplomatic negotiations with other countries, conducting sieges, scorched-earth war on civilians, and destroying cities outside of battle. Lincoln also felt that blacks and whites could not live together. His intention after the war was to deport the freed slaves to the Caribbean and South America.
Fair comparison, but also one which demonstrates that the exercise doesn't always tell the whole story.
And for some strange reason Lincoln and the Brits don't pack quite the same punch as old Mr. Hitler does.

here's a developing 'Zionist Crime' story...
The Armageddon Network - by Justin Raimondo
http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2011/11/13/the-armageddon-network/
"...This is not a covert conspiracy but rather an open one: the Israelis have threatened, time and time again, to take military action against Iran. They claim the Jewish state faces 'another Holocaust' and that Iran poses an 'existential threat' to Israel's very existence.
The latest wrinkle is that officials in Tel Aviv reportedly told Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, on a recent trip to Israel, that they wouldn't necessarily be informing the White House until after the Israelis have launched their fighter jets and missiles. Perfectly understandable:
After all why should the Israelis - who drain us of $3.5 Billion a year in 'foreign aid' give us a few minutes warning of Armageddon?"
Tue, 2011-11-15 10:44
#65
Oh indulge me with just one more, Catchfire. Besides, they might like this one.
It is interesting that Roger Tucker (NDPP's link at #53) focuses on the lurid, and dismisses what is probably the most significant common denominator - anti-communism.
It may not have the same name in Israel, but both states were built on seige mentality, and the notion that they were a bulwark against barbarism. That is the whole reason why they excuse doing the things they do,
As for racism, religious-ethnic purity, violence, expropriation of land, forced internment, expulsion and genocide - there are sadly no end of historical and current examples that fit that - including right here in Canada.
Tue, 2011-11-15 11:19

M. Spector
But god forbid we should ever compare anything that happened in Canada to Nazi Germany - even though there were plenty of Nazi sympathizers in powerful positions here and in the USA in the 1930's!
As for anti-communism, that was as pervasive in Canada as in Germany in the 1930's. Modern-day Israel is far less concerned about communism, since it faces no real existential threat at the moment from communists, either domestic or foreign. There are other far more significant common denominators with Nazism, as Tucker elaborates.

One of the most significant crimes committed in Zionism's name is to reject as "anti-Semitic" virtually any negative characterization of Zionism as ideology or practice. When Palestinian civil society condemns Israel's official policy as "apartheid", should we explain to them that they are "off-topic" and should avoid "historical metaphors"?

That would be two different things you are talking about.
Yes, there are some, including in our own government as you know, who wrongly try to portray political criticism as anti-Semitism. Refusing funding, silencing debate, and even banning groups based on this lie is indeed an injustice.

But ALL parties in the House condemned Iran and voted for sanctions despite the fact it appears to be actually adhering to the Non-Proliferation Treaty that they signed. The international monitors are in the nuclear facilities because Iran is adhering to the Treaty. The other three countries were never monitored because they refused to agree not to develop the bomb. Hell with our CANDU technology Canada should be indicted for spreading weapons of mass destruction.
Unlike their neighbours in Pakistan, India and Israel Iran doesn't have the bomb. Iran has not invaded another country for hundreds of years. Why cannot at least one party in the House have a nuanced foreign policy that takes into account actual history not NATO propaganda.

Here is a link. Thx I enjoyed the interview. The analysis at the end of the interview about the main Israeli objective now being tough sanctions would explain the unanimous support in the H of C for sanctions. PARTIES IN CANADA'S HOUSE OF COMMONS have agreed to sanctions based on the flimsiest evidence. Sanctions that the Israeli MSM describe as an attempt to cripple Iran's economy. Both the government and her majesty's official opposition are in lock step.
The new measures set out in Executive Order 13590, signed by US President Barack Obama, are designed to persuade Iran to halt this potential catastrophe by severely disrupting the flow of technical supplies, fuel and finance into the Iranian energy industry, thereby crippling the country’s economy.

Israel Plans More Walls - by Stephen Lendman

"Instead of peace, reconciliation, equity and justice, Israel plans settlement expansion and more Walls. Projected to exceed 800 km when completed, its route is largely within the Green Line. It's not for security. It's land theft plain and simple, around 12% of Palstine. Combined with settlements, miitary zones, parks, commercial developments, other closed areas, and open spaces, nearly half the West Bank will be annexed. Perhaps more eventually as land theft continues unabated.
It's a massive land grab, a settlement expansion scheme and plan to seize all valued land, dispossess tens of thousands, entirely Judaize East Jerusalem and enforce police state harshness. Illan Pappe believes the Zionist project involves constructing, then defending 'a Western/'white' fortress in the Arab/'dark' world.."

"After a recent Israeli Supreme Court decision allowed Israeli companies to maintain quarrying and mining activities in the occupied West Bank, local human rights groups and activists say the decision has opened the door dangerously to Israel's pillaging of other Palestinian resources.
'On its face, the new rule allows the occupier (in long term occupation) to make endless use of the variety of objects found in the occupied territory'. Israeli human rights group Yesh Din stated. 'To pump its water resources, to transfer its archaeological artifacts to somewhere outside the territory, to use areas within it for garbage disposal, to sell public real estate, and more..'
The court argued that the laws of occupation change when the occupation is long term, in other words, the powers of an occupying power can expand, while the prohibitions against it become increasingly flexible, in a long-standing occupation.."
