That puts them up there with European colonialism.

Actually the Mongols conquered China but then were swallowed up by Chinese culture and became Chinese themselves. A generation later you couldn't tell the Mongols had ever been there.

Only if you are in possession of the facts.

In my opinion what makes a bad leader is one who fails to secure the state or started a progression of failed policies which led to the ultimate demise of the state.

So with that in mind I select...

Dali Lama
Alexander II
Gorbachev
Lincoln

There are numerous others, but those are right off the top of my head.

[pigeonhole]

Mao tsetung; pol pot; lenin; stalin; castro;hitler; saddam hussein;hafez el-assad;boumediene; mugabe;kaddhafi;ossama ben laden;arafat;mandela (yes, him);thaçi;izetbegovic;tito;mussolini;ceaucescu;ul bricht;honecker;quisling;videla;admiral horty;daniel ortega (chavez not quite yet...)...
enver hodja;anton palevitch...far, far behind : franco, pinochet, nasser, salazar...yes, they were dictators,but for different reasons, I think they were not as bad as the above...

[pigeonhole]

...oh, I forgot kim il sung...but not hirohito, not even milosevic, -I know, this will shock many-but I have my reasons...

[grmike]

a combination of muslim extremism and president Bush have probably set the stage for everything to come together for the antichrist and global dictatorship. Since the coming new world order will cause more destruction, hate, and confustion than the nazi's noone can really say one is worse than another. the worst is yet to come.

Every politician, regardless of state (i.e. democractic, dictatorship, emperial, etc)- they're all the same!
