irishsmile Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hitler ends up on cutting room floor The Nation BANGKOK: -- A controversial scene in a short film produced by the Prime Minister's Office, featuring an image of Nazi Germany's former dictator Adolf Hitler, has been removed following an uproar. PM's Office Minister Panadda Diskul said yesterday the controversial scene had been edited out even before it was reported by the media earlier this week. He said Hitler was portrayed negatively in the short film "Learning about Power of the People", which is part of a series called "Thai Niyom" (Pro-Thai) produced by the agency and directed by well-known film directors. "In the film, Hitler is not portrayed positively or admiringly," he said. The scene featured a proud boy completing a painting of Hitler and the Nazi swastika emblem. A friend of the artist is applauding him. Panadda said the film's intended message was that dictatorship and dishonesty would only bring national shame.

cup-O-coffee Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Mao was a Tyrant very True , many of the deaths in China were caused by policy rather than war , Great leap forward approx 20 million, Just after the Revolution or "Liberation" as the PRC call it , he decided that his purges should execute 1 in 1000 people to keep the peasants in there place If you have not read them Maos Great Famine The Tragedy of Liberation Some Chinese may be bad. But nothing compared to some German/Austrian I can name of. Even if you credit every death during WW II to Hitler Mao still killed twice as many people. I guess your Western education system was lacking in the History of totalitarian dictators. It is information like this that really puts a perspective on other people's views, and how much influence they have to carry over their views onto others. Are we thinking in terms of all human life has equal worth, or are we being lead to believe that some human life has that much worth, and other human life is not worth noting. To me, this is sad in a strange sort of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilcopops Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I think it is worth reiterating a comment about some people's ability to watch and understand a movie here....they seem to be the kind of people who think the Cadbury's Flake adverts were all about a woman who was to busy eating chocolate to answer the phone.

Kooweerup Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 By the way: I have no problem with (almost) anyone, using a Hitler- image or the Nazi- flag and -symbols, to make a point! But at least, they should have some knowledge, what they are talking about. That is clearly not the case here and in any "Nazi- fashion- chic"! and this was commissioned and approved by the man who held the highest military position in the land, a man who would have studied military history and been well aware of Hitler and the atrocities he performed. A man who would have been well aware of the sensitivity and a man who couldn't give a flock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think Thai say "sawasdee ka" because "su" means good "asti" means to be , and "ka" is a polite suffix. Everytime a Thai person says "sawsdee" acuse them of being a Nazi Too many old guys here who were brainwashed in the West into thinking all Germans were evil, I remember a German moved to my school and he got a really hard time.

I find your defense of this Hitler scene DISGUSTING. I'm not a dude. I have never defended Hitler anywhere or in any post. Grow up and stop name calling. You have been around long enough to be civil. The director painted a negative portrait of Hitler and a child who was emulating an obnoxious cultural aberration common in Asia. That you and the Israeli ambassador don't see this is not my fault.

Must be a very dull minded person, a dark sign for the Israeli embassy. So we are actually in partial agreement and only differ on who is the dummy. there is absolutely no excuse from the P.M. He commissioned this video and cleared this video. He was the highest ranking and most educated military officer in the land. To reach this level he would have studied world military history and the leaders. To say a military officer of this world wide standing had absolutely no idea of Hitler or the atrocities he committed is rubbish. For people to defend the guy of such a position who authorised this film as being thai and uneducated is plain stupid. Prayuth as head of the Military and now P.M (Self elected) knows of Hitler very well and the feelings of foreigners. It was a deliberate act by the P.M to offend the world, an educated man with experience in world military history would not do as he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
