In a recent interview with The Daily Record, a Scottish newspaper, Smith said even Hitler "didn't wake up going, 'let me do the most evil thing I can do today.'"

"I think he woke up in the morning and using a twisted, backwards logic, he set out to do what he thought was 'good.'" Smith told the paper. "Stuff like that just needs reprogramming."

Smith's comments have him in hot water with the Jewish Defense League, which called them "ignorant, detestable and offensive" on its Web site.

The JDL also called on movie theaters to stop showing Smith's latest film, "I Am Legend."
