Summary: Interesting Indeed
Review: This dvd was very interesting in explaining the eastern roots and western uses of the Schwastika, the Sieg, and other esoteric symbols. Walking into a Presbyterian Church close to my home I was VERY surprised to see on the left wall hanging a banner with a cross and there was a schwastika on a cloth banner above the cross, but it was crossed out. I was surprised to learn that the Schwastika was used all over the world before Hitler adopted the eastern Buddhist symbol of good luck and of creation and turned it into a symbol of hate. Its cheap and very informative.

Summary: Interesting, and a great price
Review: What a strange three volume set. All you ever wanted to know about Nazi ideology in three hour long episodes. The documentary is reasonably non-judgemental (although the fact that they gassed 6 million jews is not glossed over), rather it is a look back in history to try and find reasons for the Hitler's "different" perspective on Germans, Jews and the whole of world history. There is a large amount of documentary footage which I hadn't seen before, and I've seen a fair amount of footage from the inter war years. And even if you you hate the thing, ...Can't argue about the price, at least.
