Your title should be, name 4 political leaders who did war crimes or something.

I see someone getting offended by this thread in the not too distant future.

Was Mao ever charged with war crimes? Certainly he should have been, but I don't recall ever reading about that.

Well i know that Mao of China and Pol Pot of Cambodia did not get charged for war crimes. Mao died of sickness and Pol Pot died of old age.

As for Toto he was executed and Hitler went the sucidal route

Here's one. Hernán Cortés, Conquistador of the Aztec Empire.

Image
Here's another, Andrew Jackson. His policy of Indian Removal lead to the Trail of Tears and thousands of native American deaths.

Image

One more, Henry Kissinger. For atrocities in Cambodia, East Timor, and Chile.

Chairman Mao committed no war crimes. He was a terrible leader whose policies killed tons of his own people, but he committed no war crimes. Remove the great helmsman, please.

Also - this thread is not going to go well. First of all it's too political. Second of all it's too personal. Third of all a lot of people who are not terribly well educated in their opinions are going to get involved / offended.

Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Then the same can be said about Pol Pot, he didnt commit crimes he just had a policy, because his movement was based off of Chinese Mao. Even it wasnt really their ideal of having so many people killed during the movement, sadly many millions did die because of it. Also Mao supported the Khmer Rouge which is lead by Pol Pot

Maybe that is why these 2 were not commited as war crimes, but just reckless rulers.

No offense but this thread is about the worst idea I have seen today. This will not end well - I honestly do not think this is a good environment to have this type of conversation.
