<p>[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 1666481, member: 42773"]Hitler was no different than any other fascist imperialist. To make him somehow more taboo, is to put him on a pedestal where he doesn't belong. He is not special in any sort of way, not more or less evil than Stalin or Pol Pot, or a number of Roman Caesars. How many millions of North Koreans died at the hands of the megalomaniacal Kims? How many millions suffered and died due to the machinery of British imperialism from the 16th to the 19th centuries? Who is responsible for the genocide of the Native Americans?</p><p><br /></p><p>You can't judge a collector's heart by his collection. A few years ago I visited Terezin in the Czech Republic - it is a vast and chilling testament to Nazi brutality, a collection of evil things if I ever saw one. Is it meant to glorify the Nazi regime?
