What he was was a military man of his time and place, much like Alexander the Great, George Washington, Belisarius, Winston Churchill or Douglas MacArthur.

Alexander the Great is far from being idolized the way Genghis Khan is being idolized in this article.

As for the rest of that list, I don't recall any of them having been responsible for massacring and plundering almost an entire continent. And non of them (except Washington in the US) are held at high esteem at all.
