Double Standards

Why is it that the same people who usually tell me that I've got to view the Qu'ran in the context of the time it was written - a view which blatantly disregards mainstream Muslim jurisprudence, scripture and practice which all agree that the Qu'ran stands timeless and valid as it was written, forever - are the same lot that tells me that Mein Kampf - a book written by an angry young politician under the very vivid impressions of four years of chaos, a lost war, the Ruhrkampf, the hyperinflation, the Polish incursions and the indignities suffered from the Treaty of Versailles - somehow applies to everything Hitler and the Nazis did fifteen years later, regardless of the context, under vastly different circumstances?
