With the timely arrest of the Serbian Ratko Mladic, it's important to reflect and remember why this man was hunted down and what he was responsible for. It's also important to remember the other horrific genocides of the 20th century so as they are never repeated again. Even now the Syrian dictatorship is murdering it's civilians as they protest for freedom and civil liberties. Here is a list of the the ten worst genocides, there are many more and there have also been many more throughout the so called civilized years that humans have held on the earth.
Mao Ze Dong- China and Tibet 49-78 million people.
Jozef Stalin- USSR- 23 million people.
Adolf Hitler- Europe- 12 million people.
Leopold II of Belgium- Congo- 8 million people.
Hideki Tojo- Japan- 5 million people.
Ismael Enver- Armenian and Greece- 2 million people.
Pol Pot- Cambodia- 1.7 million people.
Kim Il Sung- North Korea-1.6 million people.
Menghitsu- Ethiopia- 1.5 million people.
Yakubu Gowon- Biafra- 1 million people.
These horrific crimes should never be forgotten so that they never happen again.
