I think we're going to have to agree to disagree, then; I don't really think it's possible to compare historical events in such a way, and also don't think it's productive or healthy to promote the post-judgment of historical events, either.
Fair enough.
And thinking about it, I see your point about post-judgment. Viewing history from today's perspective and passing judgment doesn't take into account the historical context of the events in question which are vastly different than today's context so that such judgment is basically rendered useless.
