You can't go to war against an ideology

sign This is from the Protest Warrior site. It shows how little they think about the world.

Dear Protest Warriors,

You could stand to learn something. War did not end slavery, fascism, nazism, or communism. You cannot go to war against an ideology, as the US is still not learning in its war against militant Islam. Many people much more informed than myself are better able to give you details, so I encourage you to go to the following websites:

Slavery:
The Polaris Project
Human Trafficking.org
UN Report on the Trafficking of Human Beings
US State Department Human Trafficking report
Interpol information on Human Trafficking
Stop Human Traffic
Human Trafficking.com

The American culture as a whole believes that the Civil War was fought over one and only one issue, namely eradicating the evil of slavery as it existed in the antebellum South. It is not allowed to suggest that the South had legitimate grievances, or that the South had a right to secede, or that the Civil War had nothing to do with slavery, or even that agrarian Southern culture was superior in many ways to the industrial Northern culture. Anyone who suggests these things is immediately labeled ignorant and romantic, if not racist.

Fascism and Nazism:
Remember what fascism is
Totalitarian regimes, in contrast to a dictatorship, establish complete political, social, and cultural control over their subjects, and are usually headed by a charismatic leader. Fascism is a form of right-wing totalitarianism which emphasizes the subordination of the individual to advance the interests of the state. Nazi fascism's ideology included a racial theory which denigrated "non-Aryans," extreme nationalism which called for the unification of all German-speaking peoples, the use of private paramilitary organizations to stifle dissent and terrorize opposition, and the centralization of decision-making by, and loyalty to, a single leader.
Iran
North Korea *While North Korea considers itself Communist, it would more accurately be described as a fascist state.

Shock Mom and Dad: Become a Neo-Nazi
German young people, faced with liberal parents who are tolerant about sex, drugs and rock and roll, are increasingly rebelling by turning to right-wing extremism. Neo-nazi fashion, music and ideology have become an ever important part of German youth culture.

UPDATE: Come to think of it, the only wars we've fought against Commie countries, we lost. Hmmm...
