Are you sure you know what you're asking? The title of the thread is about the Reichstag fire, that event occurred in January, 1933 - five years before 1938. Do you think there was a difference in the Nazi party before and after 1938?
Lampshades and soap? The dead were burned. What the Nazis collected were gold teeth, hair, eye-glasses. Where do you get your history lessons?
Hitler and Nazi Germany are all dead. Really.
There are no more Richstag fires. Today we live in a different reality. Hopefully extremists who see Hitler, Stalin and Satan in every corner can be controlled and our civilization, as imperfect as is, will prevail.
Yes...of course there will never be another ' Reichstag fire '.
It isn't like an attack was staged on US Navy ships off the coast of a nation in south east Asia in order to become further involved in a war there back in the 1960s....
The day after the fire, Hitler asked for and received from President Hindenburg the Reichstag Fire Decree, signed into law by Hindenburg using Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution. The Reichstag Fire Decree suspended most civil liberties in Germany and was used by the Nazis to ban publications not considered "friendly" to the Nazi cause.
What will be our Reichstag Fire?
Superbug (whether it was gov't created or not), Another 9/11, Mexican gangs, etc...
Problem with that is Bush is no longer in power....
Or do you think Obama will continue in the same vein as Bush,restricting our rights,attacking other nations and spying on Americans?

He's gone, but for 8 years we were a defacto dictatorship.
And while the corporates have decided there is still too much fight in us to come along peacefully, some of Dubya's lesser known accomplishments (like having the Chinese control our power grid) are still riding high.
Right down to losing a war of aggression against a 3rd rate power.
Remember Ethiopia?
