I don't really draw any distinctions. I think if you have carried out a form of genocide then you have to be included in the list. Hitler had to be resisted, of course he did, but that doesn't excuse Churchill for the Indian genocide. I would also add Blair to the list for Iraq. It was really the same thing Hitler was doing to other nations. It is just we are not meant to point out when we do it and we are urged to forget quickly. History is about making winners look good, just like economics is about protecting the rich. Clever words to keep us bleating.
