Does History Repeat Itself?

Holland is a perfect example of what happens when there is no governing moral standard. The Dutch have decriminalized most drugs and people smoke dope openly in venues set aside for the practice. Prostitutes display their wares like mannequins in department store windows. And now we have at least one hospital murdering already born babies because someone has decreed them unworthy of life.
And this:
And now we have the killing of newborns. All of this in a country where the Nazis murdered Ann Frank just because she was Jewish and therefore less than human.
Does history repeat? In Holland, apparently it does.
When I read this article, I was stunned. Yes, it's Fox News, but even for a commentary from Fox News I find this just so rude! Just because 1) you can not group one people together and accuse them of being Nazis and having "no governing moral standard" :roll: , but also because 2) Cal Thomas accuses the Dutch people of killing little babies because of something which has been severely exaggerated. This was what a member of the forum of the site clubvibes.com had to say about this:
With 2 minutes of research I was able to find that these babies who "don't measure up to an arbitrary standard" are actually babies born in great pain from incurable disease or extreme deformities. Now I'm not sure if I agree with this practice but FOX sure didn't help me have an informed opinion on the issue. The FOX article also fails to mention that since 2003 this option has been used a total of 4 times.
What is your opinion about this? People on the forum of clubvibes.com said to its Dutch members that the Dutch people should sue Cal Thomas for slander :wink: Good idea?
