Who is the world's worst political leader, in your opinion?
I find this a somewhat difficult question to answer. I don't believe that there is a leader without any negative downfalls. Of the current world leaders, I think Hugo Chavez (Venezuela) George Bush (United States), Kim Jong-ill (North Korea), Abdullah (Saudi Arabia), Omar Al-Bashir (Sudan), Isaias Afewerki (Eritrea), Islam Karimov (Uzbekistan), Than Swe (Myanmar), Teodoro Mbasogo (Equatorial Guinea), Pervez Musharraf (Pakistan), and Bashar Al-Assad (Syria). I think Islam Karimov is the worst by far. I think is Soviet styled Authoritarian government is destroying the country. He has been known to boil to death opposition leaders. To stand up against the government is to commit suicide
I'd say Chairman Mao personally with his Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. God knows how many millions were murdered directly or indirectly under him, by starvation, etc. He killed more people than Hitler. Enough said.
