Write your reply.

assistant: Yes and no.  The Hitler Youth was mainly an
indoctrination group.  They were taught from an early
age the Hitler was half a step away from God therefore
every thing he said or wanted was right.  You pound
something into a child's brain from an early age and
its going to stick.  What you pound in there can be
good (as in taking a child to the church of your
choice) or bad (as in the Hitler Youth).
The USSR, China, Vietnam, Cambodia and most other
communist countries have (had in the case of the USSR)
very similar programs.  They even have or had an adult
version, usually called 're-education' centers or camps
or some such.

Then he went totally nuts.  Starting with the fact that
