compared to some of the current world leaders Adolf Hitler wasn't such a bad bloke !
( he did a lot of good work for his constituents )

he was just a little less subtle about trying to exterminate a race than the current guys.

( weapons of mass destruction weren't invented I guess )

It might be the popular thing for people to give out about Israel, but I wonder if these people were given a choice of living in either Tehran or secular Tel Aviv how many would stick with their principles and choose Iran?

To be honest I agree with most of your point there, all my point was that compared to China or Russia (the only realistic alternatives) I would prefer to have America in control, simply because they are the best of the three options.
