Did the nazi's kill large numbers of innocent people? Yes. Do other govts kill large numbers of innocent people? Yes. The real question is - scale. Stalin and Mao make Hitler look like small potatoes. The "final solution" and the "6mil dead" fall apart under close examination. Most of the hitler camp deaths were due to lack of supplies while loosing a war. I honestly can't imagine even 1mil dead in the camps, there just wasn't enough time (in my opinion). Mao and Stalin had much more time to round people up and they weren't facing the US army while they were trying to do it.
