"On a par with Hitler" - I didn't say that. Just because a regime isn't on a par with Hitler doesn't mean it isn't dictators. Though you could have said of Hitler too that "In fact he only ever sought to deliver what his own people wanted".

That's the point. Dictators only stay in power while they can somehow manage to deliver what people want, or make people want what they deliver. Or at least a significant section of the people. In the end, when Milosevic wasn't delivering what people wanted, they got rid of him. Since the army had abandoned him the coup was a relatively bllodless one, in this case.

And while Milosevic used the Socialist label, he had long abandoned Socialism in any real sense. The label doesn't mean much - after all Hitler used it as well. The only thing is, it does keep some good people on side long than they otherwise would be the case. And the collapse of dictatorships that exploited the label doesn't mean that
there still aren't a lot of people who are going to work to bring about a genuinely socialist society, in Serbia and in other countries.
