ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema's political career has been compared to that of Adolf Hitler. A Facebook group called "Official Petition: REMOVE JULIUS MALEMA AS PRESIDENT OF THE ANCYL" has, in the past week, accumulated 36000 supporters - and the group seems to be gaining momentum by the hour.

By Wednesday, about 25000 users had joined the group and, by yesterday afternoon, it had 36569 confirmed "fans".
One user, Alain Latham, wrote: "Hitler's rise coincided with, and was fuelled by, unemployment and misery brought on by the Wall Street crash of October 1929. Malema's rise has coincided with the Wall Street crash of September 2008."
This group seems to be far from being a fun get-together by bored users - topics such as racism and nationalisation were brought up.
Stefan Janse van Vuuren said it was up to South Africans to act. "And, like Hitler, most people will laugh at you if you say Malema could be the next president of this country. What's that old saying? 'For evil to triumph all it needs is for good people to do nothing' ."
Nhlakanipho Mnguni wrote: "When this idiot speaks ... I prefer to block my ears; he is like some sort of retard."
Malema has been embroiled in several scandals in the past few weeks, among them allegations that he has been dodging paying his taxes and that he was involved in a dodgy R250-million mining deal in Limpopo, He called DA leader Helen Zille a Satanist.
His spokesman, Floyd Shivambu, came under fire this week after he threatened to expose journalists' personal lives.
