Starving over 20 million people is not bad? Whats your definition of bad?

Hitler certainly had a very far reaching effect on many, many people, but I wonder how evil he really was? How sadistic? He mostly ordered killings, and then not even necessarily ordered all the killing that took place. Someone like Charles Manson is probably a much more unstable and "evil" person than Hitler, even though he killed less.

Stalin. But by pure percentage of population murdered in the shortest amount of time, Pol Pot takes the cake.

Possibly, what about Eichman then? I think the op is talking in terms of who caused the most problems in the 20th

Nah, Mao had him beat by a longshot, but Mao also had a lot more people he could kill.

not sure about that. I heard Hitler could be said to have resulted in 80 millin deaths. Stalin about 20 mil, no?
