[edit] Pronunciation?

How is his name pronounced?

Cool, thanks. :) Josh 22:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] death

the dictator died from natural causes and not as a result of assasination

[edit] Are these reliable quotes?

I have removed this one in particular because of the explanation in brackets, but other quotes are also referenced from the same site.

"I am principally responsible for the transformation of this poor and rural country into a modern and progressive state. It is my exclusive prerogative to destroy what I have personally built." (translated from french from a Djiboutian msg board so not 100% reliable-feel free to replace with more reliable source)[1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Czar Kirk (talkcontribs) 18:53, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
