Who did it better?
Who was worse, Hitler, Stalin, or Putin ?
Some would say that Hitler was one of the worst, if not the worst, dictator ever in the history of dictators. Under his rule over 6 million Jews were killed in concentration camps, and attempted to exterminate every Jew in Germany. He believed that the Jews were the ones who crashed the German government and had to pay for what they did. His rain of terror lasted 6 traitors years, and he will always go down as one of the worst leaders in history. Stalin is not as well known as Hitler, however; he killed more people than Hitler. Of course this is partly due to the fact that Stalin was also in power for 24 years. He killed over ten million Russian citizens and deported over 3 million more. Surprisingly the citizens still saw Stalin as a higher power and a great man. He was highly respected in Russia and whoever thought differently was killed. Now with Putin running Russia people are getting worried he is going down the same path that Stalin and Hitler did. He has engaged in conflict in Ukraine and now has the whole world waiting for him to make his next move. He has been the president of Russia for two years and is starting to act like he is a dictator. I believe things are only going to get worse with Putin in control.
I really like this post because it shows all the destruction these powers have caused and puts all the pain and all the deaths into perspective. It makes you think how far we have come and also if we have actually made that much progress in our society.
