Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. Gandhi, along with Nehru, has been harshly criticized by many Indians already. However, the staff may delete posts that cross the threshold.

I have extended the poll. You should be able to vote now.

See in blue. That is your interpretation. Please respond to CivFanatic's post objectively. He countered you on the population of USSR, which did not include the populations of Easter European countries. Do you agree with that or not? Adding for convenience: See what you wrote, "... post WW2...

I was responding to your post (read what you wrote bud) where you said Jinnah should not be in the list. You can vote for Mao, but Jinnah will stay in the list because some other member requested it. My response to that request is negative. :)

Jinnah will stay. According to you he may not be a villain, but according to someone else, he is. Everyone's opinion counts. You should vote for the person you feel is the most evil.

I think the discussion was about the population of the USSR, and how many could have been actually killed by Stalin, not how the USSR controlled the Eastern European states. Read what you quoted:

Regarding Stalin, and the link you posted, please read the last paragraph of that section. Again, read what you post. Moreover, regarding Stalin, many of his killings were part of the purges, where, he killed many of the Russian officers who were known to have had sympathies for the Tsarist...

What backup have you provided to support your claims? You are saying Hitler did not kill 6 million Jews? Also, what are your sources for 40 million killed by Stalin?

Stalin did not kill half as many people as Hitler did. That confusion between 20 million and 40 million is moot. One can claim 100 million if he so pleases. That figure 20 million is also inflated. Even Putin said that what Stalin did was a necessary evil.

Uncle Joe?

Regarding Hirohito: Firstly, everyone is entitled to his opinion. Secondly, Hirohito was the Emperor and he has to take responsibility for what the Japanese did, whether he himself participated in those acts or not. Thirdly, one should read more about what the Japanese did, in China, Korea...

You can open a thread on the most evil person of the ancient times. This thread is about 20th century.

I have added all the requests. Edit: Guys, let us debate and agree or disagree. Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. Keep debating! :thumb:

Working on it guys. I will add all of them.

Add all of them. Also include the Armenian Genocide, East Pakistan Genocide, Pol Pot, Idi Amin. Hirohito is responsible for the massacres carried out by Japanese troops.

Yes, you are right. The Japanese also carried out large scale massacres in territories they controlled. However, instead of going ballistic, what you could do is post references to support your claims. That way, your points carry a lot more weight and become more credible than posts that are...
