I was making fun of your pirate thing chumba.
Never, EVER make fun of the pirates. Incidentally my pirates are well versed in a multitude of skills, including arts and crafts, so they will have no trouble in creatinng flags.
Anyway, on to the issue of the 48,000,000 Hitler clones - the idea of having so many clones of the same individual raises all manner of Paradoxes and Strangely Improbable Events, so you can have the go ahead from me on that.
Also, I would like to know what kind of costumes and armaments the hitlers will have? Will any of them, for example, be sea-based? If so, will they be dressed as pirates?
I also have a slight point about the hitler idea - you state that Stalin comes a close third to hitler and a hitler clone, but you have neglected to include the most evil german of all time in your list - Kaiser Wilhelm. He owns Stalin any day of the week. My point is, would it be cost effective to produce a small number of Wilhelm clones as backup? On the off chance that there is some genetic feature that gives the hitler clones some kind of easily exploitable weakness, we need some other forces ready so that we are not completely overwhelmed.
