Hitler did not take sole responsibility. That's why many of his high ranking officers stood trial after the war and many of his officers fled to escape execuction. 'Convince' the Germans is a pretty weak statement... On coming to power, his people thought him to be a great leader, even after his brainwashing of the children of Germany who were quite happy to turn their own parents in to be shot. Someone who can turn your own kids against you is trully evil. 'As for most of us would tell them to fuck off'... I doubt it. It's nice to look back and 'think' we've more sense and have superior intelligence, but if you lived in those times you would more than likely have the same opinion as those around you... one of surviving by keeping quiet.
Hitler, Stalin, Napoleon, Vlad, Ghengis and not forgetting Pol Pot were evil bastards. Bush is just a simpleton and can't and shouldn't be compared to these guys.
