Spinning the earth backwards wouldn't accomplish the stated goal of turning back time, but it would cause incredible devastation due to inertia as everything not anchored reall well would topple over.
me: sorry, we had a very serious office discussion that demanded my attention Andrew: about... me: e.g.: would it be okay to murder hitler's dog? Andrew: uh no? me: but it's hitler's dog Andrew: yes, because the dog strives to secure the superior foothold of the ayran race the fuck it's a fucking dog me: an evil fucking dog Andrew: oh really? how many jews did it kill? me: all those years benefitting directly from hitler's evil, never once complaining or working to lessen the plight of the jews the dog just sat there all it takes for evil to prevail is for a good dog to remain silent Andrew: yes, it deserves it's fate because of it's apathy to the plight of the jewish rac me: see, that's what i'm saying
:O!!! Somebody should have rescued it! (instead of contemplating murdering it). Poor thing... Its documentary belongs on one of those super sad make you cry animal rescue shows.
If someone, human or non, unknowingly benefits from evil, does that make them evil? That dog was probably like "nice man with the mustache gives me biscuits! Yay!" and it did not know anything about the terrible politics and war. Poor Doggie.
I'm guessing it was a fatalistic German version of Ol' Yeller syndrome. Faced with killing the dogs himself or letting the enemy do it, he chose to take it into his own hands.
If I was a dictator and I thought the opposition would hurt my dog, I would have given them away. I hate Nazis for their crimes against humanity. Their crimes against puppies are like a final insult.

(Yes, it is only a drop in the ocean of evil that was the Third Reich, but still, WTF?)
[But don't really give him that comic. That'd be really mean, and I'd feel bad.]
