Napoleon the inspiration for Hitler, says historian
Napoleon massacred more than 100,000 Caribbean slaves and should be
remembered as a genocidal dictator and inspiration for Hitler rather than a
military genius and founder of modern France, a French historian said
yesterday. "I refuse to bow down before the statue any longer, I have opened
my eyes," said Claude Ribbe, a respected black academic and part of a
governmental commission on human rights whose book, Napoleon's Crime, is
published this week, on the bicentenary of the emperor's great triumph at
the battle of Austerlitz this Friday.
