I don't think he ever set out to be a dictator, it just kind of evolved. |

I don't think Hitler was a genius. He managed to persuade those who were skilled in their own fields to be involved in his movement. What he had, in my opinion, was the gift of oratory by which he could hold the attention of many, the Nuremburg Rallies being a case in point and a gifted propagandist in Goebels. |

Kim Jong Un was born to his position, somebody else did the stuff to get the family in charge. |

Looking forward to listening to 'Analysis' on BBC Radio 4 this evening, the topic under discussion concerns how dictators survive in office. |

My worry with Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un - which this thread is about - is that they both have a vast amount of 'growing up' to do :-( |

Unstable dictatorships & Islamic terrorist groups can cause consternation worldwide & many sleepless nights for political leaders. |

I think many of us said a while back we wouldn't be surprised if the idiots on both sides did something stupid, not sure any of us put a time limit on it...so if it's been six months of "peace" great but that's because they knew the Worlds press would be looking closely to the area....now the games are over lets see who knows.... |

I wouldn't say the north Koreans have always been willing to talk if they think they can get something out of the talks, otherwise the fact they've said they'll talk wouldn't be news worthy!! |
