They also discuss Mubarak's survival of the assassination of Anwar Sadat, his use of mass imprisonment, the multiple rigged elections and his eventual fall from power.


These two dictators battle it out in Round 15 of the knock-out tournament to determine the single greatest dictator of all time. One of these two dictators will be eliminated from the tournament and the other will remain in contention to be crowned history's biggest dictator.
