I believe Hitler was a better leader. He was more intelligent and more charasmatic. It's true both of them used scare tactics to control the majority of the population, but Hitler was also loved by a lot of Germans also because he gave them hope. (For those wanting proof I will not provide it seeing that my arguement is common knowledge)
Personally, I think that while Hitler was a scarier person, he commanded less respect. When Stalin died, every person in RUSSIA (largest country in the world) had to kiss his grave (a lot of people). SO my vote goes to Stalin.
They HAD to kiss his grave because they were forced to. Stalin was not loved. Also Stalin was worse than Hitler. He killed around 14million of his own countrymen.
Wow, what a who's who of the bloodiest bas#@&*s of the 20th century!
I thought that Mussolini had killed more since the citizen's hanged him. I thought that Stalin had killed more people than Hitler but not about twice as many! Check out Idi Amin, remember, he was a cannibal, gross!

I think a more fair number for Hitler would be 17 million.
He was shot down. Summarily executed. And he killed only those who couldn't be hidden from the nazis.
You're right Wex, I remember seeing TV images of him in the '60's, from the original footage. Censorship was still governing the TV broadcast, so I didn't see everything. What I did see was so shocking, and I was a preteen, so I closed my eyes while they continued to drag him up the side of a bldg up-side-down. With the black and white images it was hard to tell if it was dirt or mud or blood?
For a country that was supposedly a utopia, there was a hell of a lot of crime.
Well no doubt about that. The situation of the USSR at its early history was devastating (Two world wars, Revolution, Civil War, famine). To think it would even be near utopia in that situation is ridiculous.
But I asked for proof of them reporting that there was no crime in the statistics.
