Letter: A Serbian Hitler?

Sir: Ken Livingstone draws a number of parallels between Milosevic and Hitler. There is one other similarity which will, I suspect, become a closer parallel than we all hope.

Hitler was prepared to allow his country to be flattened by bombardment rather than die or surrender. It was not until ground troops (Russian in that case) got within a few hundred yards of his bunker that he finally accepted the inevitable.
