Some Statistics…
Consider the following: estimates state the following leaders amounted to the death of millions
of innocent people. (Numbers can vary depending upon your source…)
Adolph Hitler: 20,946,000
(avg 1,745,500/year)
Joseph Stalin: 42,672,000
(avg 1,778,000/year)
Tojo Hideki: 3,990,000
(avg 997,500/year)

of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
•Following that, you can read Night, or finish your journal assignment for LA.
Now, consider Truman’s statistics:
