So totally artificial. So totally stage-managed. It is destined to come down with a mighty crash - sooner rather than later.

Gaddafi managed his regime in similar fashion.

So did Idi Amin in Uganda and Bokassa in the Central African &#039;Empire&#039;. 

So did Peron. So did Marcos. So did Ceaucescu.
 
So did Nkrumah in Ghana - with his &#039;seek ye first the political kingdom&#039;.

Mubarak, apparently, was not much different.

Not to mention Stalin, Adolf and Benito, of course.

Even &#039;benevolent&#039; Franco in Spain and Salazar in Portugal have had their memories blemished as heavily smacking of totalitarianism.

The past has always been a mirror of the future. It is the utterly idiotic who does not learn from other men&#039;s mistakes.]]></description>
