Let me see if I can speed this thread to it's eventual conclusion.  :)

Hitler clearly went into hiding and became Buddy Holly, who died
in the plane crash.  His unground supporters masterminded 9/11 in
his memory as a means to use up all the IPv4 addresses sparking a
revolution of socialism during the transition to IPv6 lead by Barack
Obama.  But what most people don't know is that Hitler was just a
messager from Xenu, who are fighting a proxy battle with the Raelians
on earth for control of the universe.  The Japanese have taken up
the fight, as the Raelians are here as whales.  It is the whales,
er Raelians who are pushing for IPv6, so they can address the entire
universe when their scheme for world domination finally succeeds.
This is why Japan spent so much energy with IPv6 early on, so they
could develop a stuxnet like virus that would infect all of the
Raelian IPv6 devices and destroy them.

It's all really quite obvious, I don't understand why so many people
don't see the connections.  They are all here in plain sight.

I really should stop watching cable news. :)
