Stanford’s Professor Michael McFaul is a fool. He said on MSNBC that Hitler never targeted ethnic Germans. McFaul is a fool, an idiot, and makes us wonder if his biography is a fraud.

Snopes has just destroyed its own reputation. Their co-founder was plagiarizing dozens of articles from elsewhere, plus writing fake columns and article on the site under a pseudonym. I may no longer link to Snopes except to note that Snopes is now officially an Internet misinformation service.
Just about all of the numbers in this USA Today “news report” are wrong, and easily cross checked for the correct numbers. This. Is. Journalism. Where facts are strictly optional.
