RE: "I even go so far as to put some of the blame for Abu Ghraib on Spielberg." OK...........

Spielberg made a conscious decision to portray the Nazis like characters out of Bloodsucking Freaks. How many real people do you know that are like that? Probably nobody. Hence, there are no Nazis. That's one point.
The second point is that the movie dehumanizes the enemy.
Forget the ideology. How does Schindler's List differ from the dehumanization of Jews in Der Ewige Jude?
Why would you hold Spielberg to different standard than that of the director of Der Ewige Jude? And isn't that to short-sell Spielberg?
Cinema is propaganda.
