Several weeks ago, Hillary Clinton compared Vladimir Putin's actions in Crimea to Adolf Hitler's aggression in the 1930s. Clinton was criticized for this comparison, but she wasn't saying that Putin and Hitler were the same. Rather, she was saying their behavior—i.e. invading other countries—had some similarities.
