Joseph Stalin

All I can say about Stalin, is that he has a great first name. But that's about the only good thing he's got going for him. Many people consider Adolf Hitler to be the worst man in the history of the world. And there is certainly a place for him in the debate. But some people don't realize how terrible Joseph Stalin was. Many people assume that since he was on the same side as the US in WW2 that he must be a good guy. That is far from the case. Stalin was responsible for roughly 20 million deaths in Russia. Some of the things he was recorded saying show that he had little respect for human life.

Here are a few of his most known quotes,

"A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic."

"Death is the solution to all problems, no man - no problem."

"In the soviet army it takes more courage to retreat than advance."


Maybe he was the leader of our ali and not our enemy, but you can not deny that Joseph Stalin was a terrible man. He cared little for the common man and treated them as pawns in his personal game.
