One can make the argument one at least counted lives, no matter how  
horrific, while life, or the taking of life, meant nothing to the other.
 
The issue is that the "counting" sets apart Hitler from Stalin. That is a  
difference in method.
 
The journey: ripped from one's home and life, taken away in the most  
terrifying and wretched of circumstances in cattle trains, taken to a place to  
die, are the same. Those who focus on method (and Nazi propaganda and record  
keeping engineered to blame the local populace across Eastern Europe) and 
visit  the sins of collaborators upon entire Baltic and Eastern European 
peoples  utterly fail the moral obligation to build understanding and 
reconciliation  based on the far more common WWII experience: not Eastern European 
collaborators  assisting Hitler's terror against Jews, but both Jews and 
Eastern Europeans  being carted away to their deaths.
 
I expect I'll be writing to Prof. Snyder on that topic.
