Formula One Racing Chief Praises Hitler, Saddam Hussein

Ecclestone said: "In a lot of ways, terrible to say this I suppose, but apart from the fact that Hitler got taken away and persuaded to do things that I have no idea whether he wanted to do or not, he was in the way that he could command a lot of people, able to get things done.

I don't disagree with his comments on Hitler, the man was one of the greatest leaders in history. He led people to do terrible, horrible things and what he actually did should never be praised in any way, but his ability to lead people and motivate can't be denied.

I do disagree with his sentiments on Hussein and the Taliban...their countries are/will be better places without them in charge.

I agree, hardly anything good can be said about Hitler but one matter of fact is that he was brilliant enough to have an entire country and public give their full support of his actions. Something we've rarely seen with our own chosen country's leaders

Also, Hitler is still considered one of the most intelligents guys ever. I have heard a lot of books talking about him and they all agree on this.
