sjc Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Stalins genocide in the Ukraine (in 1 year!) claimed more lives than the entire holocaust. Agree that Chairman Mao should be on the list as well as a few African Dictators (Idi Amin) and heads of South American Military Juntas (Pinochet) .

Given the World population at the time, he probably killed far more as a % than the others on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If mutually assured destruction wasn't a factor I would have to say they probably would have used them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranavalona I killed an estimated 75% of the Madagascan population during her reign. That takes some doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I nominate Ríos Montt of Guatemala. IIRC he ordered bullets fired from helicopter gunships to be dipped in holy water before massacring "rebel" native villages to send them to heaven.

Didn't the British dip their bullets in pork fat and publicly bury those killed in uprisings wrapped in pig skins during their time as "protectorate" in Palestine?
