On Godwin's Law

Do you know about Godwin's law? You may not know it's called that, but the gist of it is:  "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches".

David Horspool's example of this is not  that Gaza is referred to as a "concentration camp" or that Arabs call their cities the "Warsaw ghetto" and such but

when the Prime Minister of Israel, Binyamin Netanyahu,  speaking on Iran, held up a historic correspondence from 1944 between the US War Department and the World Jewish Congress, in which the Under Secretary of War gave reasons for his government's refusal to bomb Auschwitz.

Such a cheap shot.
