 What DoDo Birds are you alluding to? My grandfather was a
machinegunner in WWI, 6th Reg. US Marine Corps. I've his diary
and don't see any reference to either Nietzsche of the Gospel
as he records his experiences from stopping the last German
offensive in July 1918 through the hell of the Argonne.

I did enjoy his statement "In Belgium, saw no starving Belgiums".
I wonder what Nietzsche would make of modern atrocity
propaganda? Pleased?
