10 Deadliest Dictators Of The World
The word dictator associates itself with a lot of adjectives with history showcasing dictatorship as a deadly propensity. The world has numerous dictators who've portrayed varied levels of unscrupulousness, ineptitude and disgust. While certain cases have seen dictatorship epitomizing considerable levels of kindness and empathy, the number of such cases is disappointingly negligible. In almost every case of dictatorship right through history, we've witnessed unimaginable extents of injustice and evil. In this article, we look at the deadliest dictators in the world.
10 MOST POWERFUL ARMIES IN THE WORLD
These "world's worst dictators" as you can call them have done nothing but inflict humanity with incalculable damage and destruction. For those inclined to justice, it comes as a major disillusionment that some of these dictators are amongst the most powerful dictators in the world.
When there is the absence of compassion, evil walks tall. If there is one thing these dictators lack, something that is responsible for all the misery, it is compassion.
Here are the 10 deadliest dictators in the world- "the worst dictators in the world" as they can be referred to. ( in ascending order of power and influence).
10. Kim Jong Il
The ruthless North Korean Dictator met his demise a little over three years back. During his regime which lasted a good 7 years, over 250,000 people were arrested and put behind bars. He is held directly responsible for the starvation of millions of North Koreans.
9. Idi Amin Dada
This merciless dictator from Uganda rose to power in 1971. The country has been subjected to innumerable coups and counter coups. During his rule, an unbelievable 500,000 people were put to death through extra-judicial killings. Rape was used as a common weapon to intimidate detractors and dissidents. He stayed in power for 8 years.
8. Saddam Hussein
The Iraqi dictator is easily one of the worst dictators in the world. Known for his ruthless disposition and instigator of numerous conflicts, he initiated mass killings of Kurds, Assyrians and Shabaks. Other ethnic groups weren't spared too. Rape and murder was rampant during his time. Wars against Kuwait and Iran claimed nearly 2 million lives.
7. Hideki Tojo
Hideki Tojo was appointed General of the Japanese Military during World War 2. Discontent with just being General, he assumed various other portfolios including those of Prime Minister, Education Minister, Military Minister and Commerce Minister. His relentless spate of attacks on neighboring countries caused the death of over 5 million people.
6. Mengistu Haile Mariam
This unforgiving Ethiopian dictator was amongst the most feared dictators in the world during his time. He declared war against any form of opposition and killed nearly 1.5 million people the very second he assumed power. Rape and torture was rampant during his time. He ordered the killings of Kebels on the streets and taxed families for receiving the bodies of their loved ones.
5. Tsar Nicholas llnd
This ruthless Russian monarch, although died a dog's death, was responsible for the death of nearly 3 million Russians. He was and still is seen as the worst dictator in history. He is popularly referred to by Historians as Bloody Nicholas.
4. Josef Stalin
A brilliant political tactician, Stalin became supreme leader of the Russian empire. A military General known for his disgusting wrath, Stalin is responsible for the starvation of an unbelievable 10 million people. He is famous for the Great Purge- a movement that saw the death of every single dissident.
3. Bashar Al Assad
The miserable and embattled leader of Syria is responsible for the death of nearly 200,000 people and the rape of almost 50,000 women. Quite unfortunately, he still calls the shots against an uprising that began in early 2011. Assad has come to be known as one of the most ruthless dictators in the world.
2. Adolf Hitler
A lot needn't be said. The German dictator is directly responsible for the death of almost 12 million people. His miserable demeanor towards Jews saw the assassination of almost 6 million Jews. He led almost the entire world to war.
