Huh? Hitler and those under his control most certainly were the only one's turning on the ovens. Are you suggesting the allies had a role in rounding up and exterminating the Jews?
When talking about genocide, the numbers killed in battle in WW2 are usually not the focus, but instead it is those killed in concentration camps.
For those who get to really huge numbers in Iraq, they are counting those killed by our bullets and bombs as well as those killed by the Ayatollah's crew. We certainly can discuss culpability and lay it at his feet, but this is the cost of removing him, not the rationale for incurring that cost.
