Hitler is the world's most famous despot because the Jews were very
successful in their goal to demonize him, rightly so, of course. But, there
is Stalin, whose name is almost never mentioned, who killed 5 or 6 times
as many people as Hitler. The only reason that Stalin is not the foremost
despot is that it has not been the goal of a significant number of people
to show the world his atrocities.
Just thought I'd mention that because I am so sick of the American fascination
with Hitler and the Nazi's. Almost nothing can be discussed without them
coming up.
