How about this, just for a start? http://www.politicalgenius.com/people/antiwar/hitler3.jpg
When people hold up signs like that, that's telling you something.
Yes, it is telling people that the behaviour of people like Bush and Sharon is a lot closer to that of Hitler than you think (and a lot closer than you are willing to admit) -- but anti-Jewishness has nothing to do with it. The sign doesn't say "kill all Jews" or anything like that; it draws a parallel between modern-day warmongers and a warmonger from the previous century.
