A couple of years ago our rather high-brow and well educated presenter Melvyn Bragg http://www.contemporarywriters.com/authors/?p=auth237 quizzed a panel of recognised world historians and university dons on our revered Home Service (Radio 4).

The question was indeed who was the worst out of Joe Stalin and Mr. Schickelgruber. After some interesting and illuminating discussion the clear winner was. . . . . . . . . .Joe Stalin, especially that we don't know the full limits of his terrible actions.
