Stalin is less evil because he sought to eliminate people who he found as a threat to his power. Hitler killed and persecuted people because he felt them inferior. This is a whole new level of malice.

@silver760 A fan of Pat Buchanan's ahistorical screed, eh? Well, all "WC" did was warn of an all too real menace -- and somehow you want to blame him for the horrific crimes of the Nazis as if somehow they were force into it??? What, are you going to argue that the murder victim was to blame for his death and not his murderer? While Churchill was hardly perfect he was absolutely right about Hitler. Stalin's crimes are a separate issue entirely and no excuse for what the Nazis did!

@ronpaulfreedom1 lol,..adjust your tinfoil hats wingnuts.

@BIytheisGreat Hitler killed people because he labelled them to be the "enemy of the race", Stalin did the same for the "enemy of the class". There is no difference between their reasons for killing people.

@bess1953 Hitler hated everyone. as proven by his "Nero Decree"

[bess1953]

What a waste of lives!

If Hitler couldn't win,he wanted to destroy Germany,and he did!

Congratulations to the modern Germans who have faced up to their past!

Germany has always had great culture.

Never again,to a regime like this.
