"...religious extremists are the cause of many of the world's problems today." ================= Pol Pot - One to three million (or between a quarter and a third of the country's population). Stalin - Approximately 20 million, including up to 14.5 million needlessly starved to death. At least one million executed for political "offences". At least 9.5 million more deported, exiled or imprisoned in work camps, with many of the estimated five million sent to the 'Gulag Archipelago' never returning alive. Other estimates place the number of deported at 28 million, including 18 million sent to the 'Gulag'. Mussolini - Over 400,000 Italians killed during the Second World War. At least 30,000 Ethiopians killed during Italian occupation of Ethiopia. Augusto Pinochet Ugarte - Kill tally: At least 3,197 killed following the 1973 military coup d'état. King Léopold II of Belgium - Five to 15 million Congolese (the indigenous inhabitants of the Congo River basin). Kim Il Sung - Kill tally: About three million killed in the Korean War. Between 600,000 and one million North Koreans needlessly starved to death due to the economic legacy of Kim's regime. (Some reports claim that as many as three million starve.)
