...can we get a name for inappropriately invoking the appeasement of Nazis? This is a tactic frequently used by neocons and various sundry warmongers who wish to portray opposing various wars as morally equivalent to pulling up a lawn chair and a Corona to watch the Holocaust.
For a recent example of "The Fallacy of '39" (as I'll call it until somebody offers something better), see Bill "I'm One of the Worst NYT Columnists -- And That's Saying Something!" Safire's latest, in which not invading Iraq would be the same as failing to oppose Nazism.
Happy trails, Bill.

How about Nazimoron?
Or Fascification?
