Yes it's over it was a comparison. Perhaps a good one but it's over.

Since WW2, we have compared bad or evil people or regimes with hitler and Nazis. What did they compare hitler/Nazis with during his rule? Napoleon,Ghengis,Attila,Nero?

The guy only said in a private conversation what 'politics' might prevent many of us from saying in a public one. Rather than 'compare Putin to Hitler' from what I gather what he actually did was compare Putin's recent actions with some of Hitler's in, presumably, 1938.

Readers can judge for themselves how accurate a comparison that might or might not be. Probably somewhere else as this no doubt strays into 'politics' and will shortly be locked.

Wow, VonRocko thas a good comparison from the past. It's a tough call but Nero was pretty bad and awful. Napoleon well I'm not sure he qualifies as a bad person. Ghengis an Atilla definitely though.

I think now there should be an exception and we should make the VonRocko Law. [&o] There are others that are bad and perhaps as bad as Hitler. I don't know how many died in that Fire Nero is supose to have started and sang while Rome burned but that was pretty awful if it was true.

Yeah, and WHO brought politics into the subject? Hrmmmm? I was just bringing up that he made a "comparison" based on the other thread conversation Warspite and I were having. But, someONE else brought up "Politics". [:-]

Nothing - there were no internet forums in the 1930's/1940's.[;)]

He could have hit him even lower by comparing him to Stalin.

Yeah, Stalin killed a lot of innocent people too and if I'm not mistaken a bit earlier than Hitler and the Nazi's. Didn't he kill like 2 million of his own citizens? Been a long time since I read about him when I did read. [:'(]

If we take the time to look at all the people who were/are being called Hitler/Nazis, then it seems to me that Germany really did win ww2

Stalin engineered an intentional family in Ukraine in 1932-33 that resulted in starvation and death for around 10 million people:

There were additional millions of people in the Soviet Union that were murdered at the direction of Stalin.

I assume you meant Famine not Family but either way I could see it killing millions.[:D]

I think that quote sums up the man.
