2011 Death of the dictators?

Postby Yeeros » Mon Dec 19, 2011 1:00 am

This year, nearly all of the famous dictators that I could think of have died.
1.Osama Bin Laden (May)
2. Muammar Gaddafi (October)
3.Kim Jong-Il (Today)

Can someone tell me that there's still more living today.

1. Is not a dictator.
2. Yep.
3. Wasn't it actually like two days ago or something? Needs to double check.

Robert Mugabe is still kicking it, Bashar Al-Assad is still tearing ass in Syria, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Ali Khamenei are still holding down Iran pretty well, that dumbass Yukashenko is still hanging around....anyone else?

Oh yea. Motherfucking FIDEL CASTRO is still alive.

EDIT: Hu Jintao sort of.
SO, yea, 2011 not so bad.

Probably. Aren't the Ayatollahs the real power in Iran?

Fidel Castro isn't actually in power. That lies with his brother, Raul.

Right. So, I'm assuming Fidel was issuing those free market reforms and releases of political prisoners.

Dictators still living:
Fidel Castro
George Walk Bush
China's Leader (Unaware of his name)
Kalaspia-Shimarata's flag represents the Union between K&S. The dark blue represents the sea and the light blue represents the sky. In Kalashi language considers light blue and dark blue to be different colours. England colonised, and unified K&S, between 1774 and 1953, and English, light blue and dark blue are considered to be the same colour. Therefore, the contrast between dark blue and light blue represents the union, but the differences between K&S where as blue being two but simultaneously one colour represents K&S being two, but simultaniously one entity. The opposite to the symmetry represents the unity and indipendance of K&S, whilst also representing the Kalashi culture of opposite symmetry.KS is 75% Christian, hence the cross.

Hu Jintao, but he's not a dictator per se.

Oh, and please, don't be so lame as to put George Bushes name on the list.

You forgot to add the Syrian leader and the Egyptian leader. Why did I forget his name?
Also, Bin Laden was NEVER a dictator

That was George Walker Bush. Kala was clearly talking about George Walk Bush, the famous Greek Australian dictator of one of those Aussie micronations like The Principality of Hutt River.

Just let Kala embarrass himself again.

Not a dictator though.

Sure, he's holding onto the Presidency as long as he can (cancer and all) but he's not keeping opposition in line as, say, Mubarak was.
