the debate over which system killed more people may be a futile exercise; frankly people have been killing each other for centuries, to now try and explain which system amounted to the death of more people outside of an historical context of the murder and mayhem over the centuries may be a waste of time. Several hundred years ago the chines raped and plundered what is now Indonesia "to profit from trade" and bestow the greatness of the emperor onto the indigenous people... which system, other than greed, barbarity, callousness and violence was responsible for that. there are very many examples throughout history. The christians slaughterd jews and muslims in Spain; does that mean christianity and christians should take responsibility... aggh Ismail Lagardien World Bank Institute J4-163 1818 H Street Washington DC 20433 USA 202 473 9603 Visit the World Bank Institute's Website http://www.worldbank.org/wbi/
