although stalin killed more people than hitler, hitler still had to be defeated first. if hitler had won, the hunter plan alone counted on a 30 million russians died of starvation. in the case of mao, it is again a question of figures. 60 million chinese died. as many as the entire second world war in this famines. >> this is after the war. >> yes. during the great leap forward, the cultural revolution -- it was a madness of the most terrifying form. how does one calculate the figures of deaths through famine or disease as a result of non attrition? -- malnutrition? it is hard to define these figures. >> there was a " in here -- a quote in here where you quote teddy white, who was such a prominent figure when he wrote about the elections in the 1960's. he described mao as a better deal. >> there was a lot of new deal idealism. certainly, up more and more historians now are thinking that chiang kai-shek has had a bad deal in history. he had a lot of problems, and there was a lot of corruption in his own organization, but when you see what mounted later, the witch hunts o

but hitler picked the wrong country to defeat. and hitler certainly picked the wrong city.t was a stunning sight on the horizon, german bombers wing to wing and 20 miles wide closing in on london, and the blitz was underway. ron mitchell was 12 years old that day. >> the next thing we heard was the bombs exploding. they were bombing the docks and you could see everything going up. >> jean archer was a young girl. >> everything was burning. it was just absolute nightmare, something you never forget. >> many of the volunteer firefighters had never encountered fire before. hitler had vowed to destroy london, and break the city's resolve. a big target early on was the east end, the factories, wear houses and docks vital to the war effort. but hitler picked the wrong people. the east end was packed with poor but proud immigrants. their labor built the place, and this wasn't about to stop them. >> the battle of london is still on. never before has any city with stood such a sustained attack from the air. each day sees more damage done. >> after that first couple of nights of tota

exploits on the track -- the puffed up ideology of adolf hitler. >> we will get back to our olympic coverage in a moment, but let's take a quick look at some of the rest of the day's news. world leaders have called on the president of syria to not launch an all-out assault on his country's biggest city. thousands of government troops have surrounded aleppo, parts of which have been taken over by rebel forces, and dozens of people are reported to have been killed there today. our middle east editor has this report, which does contain some distressing images. >> that sound of a shell landing an exploding is too familiar in syria. these pictures are unverified, as they were downloaded from the web, but they show how heavy weapons can intimidate. this is said to be a town near damascus, but as the civil war spreads, it could be almost anywhere in the country. some people are getting out of aleppo, syria's biggest and richest city, a counterattack to drive rebels who are holding part of the city. shells are coming in here, too. the regime cannot afford to lose aleppo. this could become a

but he never met hitler personally, no. >> what was the attitude towards mass transit? did he promote it? was that a people transportation that he liked? or did it compete or ignored it? >> -- guest: he by in large ignored it. when he was developing the automobile in the 1890's and the model t near 1910, he saw the automobile as the wave of the future. gasoline was very, very cheap at that time. and ford's great, i think, contribution, his great vision, was building a car for ordinary people. an inexpensive, durable, dependable, affordable. and the model t was that vehicle. and he was convinced. and at that time, i think, probably rightly so, that this would be a liberating factor in the lives of ordinary people, farmers and trades scommen mechanics who can use the automobile to experience things in life that people on the farm that he had grown up in, had never experienced before. so for him, the automobile was the cutting edge of modern transportation and i don't recall one single thing actually with ford ever even addressing mass transit as the kind of, as a kind of

and stalin and hitler was a far more dangerous dictator for the world and stalin was so i think and i think there is now there is creasing recognition of the soviet role in winning the war and of course there are always people who want to present a different view present a distorted view of the events of the second world war so you are someone who knows a lot about it and who studied stalin you wouldn't say that at this point in the west there is a deficit of knowledge about stalin and his world and russians role in world war two there's always a deficit of historical knowledge there's a deficit of knowledge about the world not just in the west also in russia. as well . but you know i don't think that deficit is to grow. as i said i think there is now a days much much greater recognition of the soviet role in the second recognition of the soviet role in the second world war more recognition than people in russia actually recognize because to what your science moves something the russians royce saying to me why why don't they recognize our rolling when the second world war and i was

it's the same thing, hitler and the jewish people.grants, as he calls them. it's not fair. >> inside, sheriff arpaio has put the entire jail on lockdown and is preparing to visit the perimeter and eventually address the media. >> are you lining up a podium or something out there? >> last report i heard, there's approximately 5,000 protesters, because of sheriff arpaio's stance on illegal immigration, he's a nationwide figure and they're bussing in protesters from the los angeles area as well as texas. >> we came from los angeles, actually, and we're here to protest sheriff joe arpaio's, like his policies towards immigrants, undocumented people, and just in general. like, i feel like he's doing a lot of, like, inhumane time of, you know, activities in arizona. >> so we've got a little situation. >> si, se puede. si, se puede. >> deputies in riot gear secure the jail facility closest to tent city, and the special response teams have been deployed to o-yard. >> we have heightened security on the yard now in case something does happen. my

the highest inflation rates and many historians agree that it was one of the factors that brought hitler into power if you are indeed collapse s. what kind of social and political implications it could have for europe and the rest of the world love r.c. . consequence of a social crisis so we had to avoid any of this in order to do to fight against a company because of a dictator like hitler or us us now the countries and south of your makes the same experience so they had to avoid a social crisis and the real problem you see you all is to your is changing from a monetary crisis into social crisis and in order to avoid to social crisis resources political implications we had to stop so you had to come to a national regime in democratic terms in economic terms. in monetary terms and then we can make combined and united your. association of independent nations and i fight for says you because this would be open for other non. you nations like switzerland or even like asha in such a open. your peon society his own currency of his own democracy his own nations we could form a new force in the

>> mussolini had a need for security, but there was also an attempt to imitate hitler. he had been to germany and seen bunkers, and he wanted to copy hitler. >> so mussolini decided he needed to go down, not just into this basement area, but down much, much deeper still. he wanted to go into the deaths - depths below the villa's foundations. this is the bunker that mussolini began to build. cylindrical corridors for maximum strength. walls four meters thick. layers of concrete reinforced with iron. and an escape route up into the garden in case a bomb demolished the villas and blocked the main entrance of the bunker. i -- in this debt, dank, a cheery place, mussolini hope he and his children would be safe -- in this gap -- in this damp, dank, eerie place. >> in his diary, mussolini wrote that he was worried it would not be finished in time. >> indeed, the work was not finished by the time the dictator fell from power in rome in july 1943. today, the villa looks as grand as ever, but it hides a strange structure that is evidence of the darkest fears of benito mussolini.

. >>> hitler by then had the plan. when you realize that these armies or remnants of armies were not coming to his aid, but were trying to escape really to the west that's when he collapsed when he realized it would come to an end and it was a question of suicide. >> historian anthony beevor from adolf hitler's rise to power to his dark, chaotic final days. >> his main objective was not to be captured alive by the russians and he was afraid of being paraded in a cage and being spat at and ridiculed. he was determined to die and edward was determined to die with him. more with anthony beevor sunday at 8:00 on c-span's "q & a." >>> the naacp is holding its annual conference in houston. yesterday mitt romney addressed the gathering and today vice president spoke to the group. mr. biden was introduced by a naacp board of directors. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >>> naacp delegates! it is my great honor to introduce to you a friend of the naacp. at the age of 29, he became one of the youngest people ever elected to the united states senate. ou

that's a weird looking hitler. >> what's so weird about it?face looks funny. >> looks funny? >> i could tell that ronnie actually didn't appreciate my criticism of his tattoo. i think he was a little stunned that i would actually say anything. he probably had a lot of pride in it but i thought it was very silly looking. >> then there are the tattoos in the category of their own. >> i'm a felon obviously because i'm a felon. >> bruce camel, army of darkness. i just liked them, put them on. >> as far as my tattoos go, the most painful one i would probably have to say would probably be the one i got in the middle of the armpit. it was like a burning pain. it almost felt like it was burning with a torch rather than a gun. it was real hot. as you could tell, i made it through it, i got it done. >> kelly mcnutt, whose nickname was mcnaughty, was one of the most colorful inmates we met at the maricopa county jail, and her tattoos were some of the more provocative we've ever seen on a female inmate. >> and then the moon doing this thing to the lady. a

why is michael jordan doing hanes commercials with a hitler moustache? how does that happen?just dribble a basketball onto the set, and people were like, "well, you know what they say, you can't stop him; you can only hope to contain him." how does that happen? the only explanation i have for that is that michael jordan has no real friends. 'cause a real friend doesn't let that happen. a real friend--they don't let you drive drunk. a real friend-- they hold your hair back when you're throwing up. a real friend doesn't take you to medieval times-- ben! and a real friend doesn't let you leave the house in a hitler moustache to go sell underpants to people. uh-uh, no. that's what happens to jerk-off captains in police academy movies. >> i've started masturbating on the ground recently. it's my way of pouring out a little for the ladies who aren't here anymore. it's all right; i can do it. i'm single, so there's nobody there to judge me. my friends--they're all starting to get into relationships and settle down, and i'm one of the fewle down, single people left. and so they've ta

among the headstones spanning the pristine grounds, pilots whose missions to fight hitler began fromide. in july of 1940, a year and a half before the atta on pearl harbor, with the united states still hoping to stay on the sidelines, largely isolationists, a handful of americans would join a ferocious fight in the skies above england. the battle of britain. one of them was a u.s. olympic champion with a penchant for speed -- william mead lindsay fisk, iii. in 1928 the u.s. five-man bobsled team would race to victory with this fearless brooklyn-born 16-year-old at the wheel. in 1932 the americans would do it again in lake placid, new york, where fisk, now 20, was tapped to carry the american flag in the opening ceremony. >> very glad to have been able to win this cup for america. uh-uh hope it stays in this country. >> reporter: in 1936 however fisk would decline an invitation to join the u.s. olympic team for the winter games in germany. many believed because of his opposition to the rise of the increasingly intolerant nazi party. not long after hitler's troops marched into poland i
