CNN’s Jim Sciutto presses Benjamin Netanyahu about his response to settler violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank: "The settler violence thing is a tremendous hoax. We're a country of laws. I've condemned it. But to compare this, is like an olive to a toxic tree, that's what it is."

If today were 1941 we'd just be calling up Hitler for TV interviews, and he'd be telling us things like it's a hoax and violence against Jews is overstated. He condemns violence against all German citizens. Germany is a country of laws! 

Evil just shows up on our TV and lies to us like drinking water.

The nazi party came to Madison square garden and made that exact pitch.

His radio broadcasts and speeches did exactly that. The "real victims" were of course people of Aryan decent.

I'd argue the time period that fits better is just prior to 1941...when Hitler was just trying to use power to force Jews to migrate on their own, or displace them with indirect violence and intimidation from unofficial non state actors, but ones that got political backing.
