>>I think to compare Milosevic to Hitler is to trivialize what Hitler did.<<
>>forgive me if you were offended by my comparison, but I feel it is appropriate.<<

I thought about this after my original response, and began to have second thoughts.

The reason I can't see the comparison is that Hitler had a very organized officer corps at his disposal, and they were training in the latest military tactics of the time. Add to that the German industrial base and I still don't see the comparison.

However, if Milosevic were to come into possession of certain weapons of mass destruction, then I could see the comparison being a lot closer.

Your other points are well-taken.

FWIW
