The Landing Zone for Murderous Dictators?

It seems to be Venezuela, according to two stories sent to me by a regular reader.

I suppose that's a more attractive option for them than swallowing cyanide and eating a bullet from a gold-plated pistol. But it's going to take a lot of money to do that. Once their money runs out and they can't afford to pay graft anymore, they'll be stuffed on a plane and sent off for either life in prison or a quick execution. And after they leave, the Venezuelans may rethink the attractiveness of being the country that hosts retired mass-murderers and war criminals.

The problem may be worse for one clown, as if the rumors are correct, most of his money is held for him, in trust, by others, so it can't be traced to him. But if he's deposed, those former friends can suffer an convenient attack of forgetfulness and take his cash for themselves.

Is there any truth to this? That's unknown.

    Slowly, slowly catchee monkee...

    First you get the top rats and thugs of that murderous evil theocracy to flee, then the whole house of cards collapses, and then...
    ...who knows?

    At least the evil primum mobile of the Middle East will be gone and:
    > Russia loses a munitions source
    > Iraq and Afghanistan might cease their full roiling boil when the heat is only the internal madness endemic to all the countries of that region
    > the talented, well educated people of Iraq might finally show what positive it can do.
    > Israel and the countries around it won't have Iran as both a boogeyman to blame and a destabilizer to upset them...maybe they can come to a more stable place and deal with their internal insanities better.

    Softly, softly catchee monkee...
