Despicable despots and regimes

[piece-itpete]

Strangely, and to our genuine collective credit, there was actually an adult and calm conversation about Nazis here. I find this topic interesting.

It was perhaps rightly mentioned that it was in the wrong thread. So, here's a place.

A fair warning, I've seen these discussions devolve into nightmares. Not as a mod but as the thread starter, if this thread goes by some bad reverse Godwins law type thing I'm deleting it and poxing anyone who does it

How about, mass murder by race: Hitler, mass murder by class: Mao, mass murder at random: Stalin?

This got deleted off RTs' website btw, they got pissed that Stain was being badmouthed.

Unfortunately, we've supported our share of murderous despots throughout the (Cold War) years in the Mideast and throughout Central and South America.

Song and Reagan ref. added.

Checking out a Nature program, 'The River Shannon' right now. PocHat is just the background noise.

Hey, get your leftie selves outta here!

Though I've got to admit, I've never had Reagan put on par with Stalin. Might be a stretch.

Now who's ranking despots? Was that the original thrust of your thread?

In Nicaragua, Guatemala and El Salvador they might disagree with you Pete. Maybe Ollie North will drop by to enlighten us as to why Reagan had to promote those dirty wars in the '80s. Too bad Archbishop Romero isn't around to rebut Ollie.

Please do show murderous acts in the Middle East by the US.
But leave out Obamas droning of Americans.
