the two dictators belong in separate leagues of cruelty and terror
Do they? I am not so sure.
Hitler had the advantage in scope, but that was because he had the means to 'accomplish' more.
Saddam's cruelty, as shown by the child's prison, is pretty much on par.

I believe we can thank our lucky stars that there is an Israel today, and very few if any Jews live in Iraq. Otherwise I believe we would have seen Hitler incarnate in Saddam Hussein. We already know some of what he did to his own people, let alone the Kurds or the Iranians. Wait until all becomes known. Although I think it discounts what Hitler was, to compare people to him, in Hussein's instance I believe it to be justified.

Good job, TIME!
The lefties will hate it, because by drawing the analogy, it will implicate them as much as Hitler's appeasers.

I guess Time will name him "Man of the Year" like they did Hitler. At least they are consistent.
