Michael Jackson Called Hitler "Genius"

on Sep. 25, 2009 09:15 AM / 19 Comments

First, Aubrey O'Day praises Hitler on Fox News, and now Michael Jackson has kind words for the Nazi leader?

The King Of Pop's close friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach has released audio in which MJ praises Hitler as a "genius." Boteach, who was a rabbi at Oxford University for 11 years, taped more than 30 hours of interviews with the star.

Michael told the Rabbi:

"Hitler was a genius orator. To make that many people turn and change and hate, he had to be a showman and he was."

The Rabbi, asked Michael:

"You believe that if you had an hour with Hitler you could somehow touch something inside of him?"

Jackson, who insisted that nobody was all evil, declared:

"Absolutely. I know I could. You have to help them, give them therapy, teach them that somewhere, something in their life went wrong."

Have your say in the comments section: Do you think MJ could have convinced Hitler to back off?

    It's slightly ironic that he said he could help people, give them therapy, considering his own mental state. Love or hate him, there's no denying he was a very troubled man.

    I'm just gonna ignore the joke that's been presented to us about touching something inside Hitler. Sorry to be a spoilsport, :(.

    Hitler was undoubtedly an amazingly gifted motivator, & an ingenious manipulator of emotions.

    To make the scar on history he did, you'd have to be.

    It's the single most tragic occurence in history.

    It probably would have happened without his involvement, but it's doubtful that it would have been on such a massive scale.

    That headline is shamefully misleading. Michael said Hitler was a genius orator, not that Hitler himself was a genius. The headline gives the impression that Michael admired Hitler and his ideas, when in fact he was simply commenting on his powers of manipulation.

    Oh look, the media took something out of context and turned around his words. He didn't say Hitler was a genius in a good way. He said he turned people to hate. Hello? Stupid media.

    he was a genius. anyone who can affect public opinion and move people is a genius. happens daily now that we have these electronic computerized gizmos. Only one of many attacks on mankind. whole list of awful attacks by geniuses (geniusii) on planet Earth.

    He wouldn't have touched anything inside of Hitler, because Hitler wasn't a little boy.

    I'm just imagining MJ with a little Hitler mustache. So cute.

    it's easy to picture MJ with a hitler stache, when you're staring at yourself in the ceiling mirror with your own recently acquired dirty sanchez ... isn't it Noah?
