Good Point Kay-ann I hear ya, but to be honest I don't think these poor people had much more chance or say than the animals, if you hear and see some of the terrible things this dictator did, your heart will fill with so much compassion and feeling for the torment they suffered.

Just an example, if you dared to speak up or question him in anyway, he had you killed, most of the people were indeed helpless against him. He was a very powerful man.

Maybe you are right, he could escape, there is always that possibility, maybe a quick execution is the answer who knows, I am just glad I don't have to decide, as I would be torn as what is for the best.

Whatever I think we all agree he was an evil,cruel man, who also bore two evil cruel sons, I believe his own life as a child was that of being dealt with by beatings etc, not that this excuses what he became, but I guess it might have a little bearing on it.
