Idi Amin in Coma in Saudi Arabia

It’s the end of an era. The flamboyant giants who strode the earth during the
second half of the past century are slowly fading into history. Papa Doc Duvalier
has joined the other Loas in Vodun, and his pale imitation of a son/successor
Baby Doc is still holed up in the south of France. The enigmatic and grandiose
Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, Lion of Judah, King of Kings and Elect of
God, who not only

claimed to be a direct descendent of King Solomon and the
Queen
of Sheba but finally declared HIMSELF a God, is now worshiped in
the afterlife by the Rastafarians. The Shady Shah of Iran, Ferdinand
and Imelda, roly-poly Ruhollah
Khomeni and Uncle
Ho are no more.

Now news that Idi Amin Dada, an authentic sportsman who was once the legitimate
heavyweight champion of Africa, and who later declared himself Field Marshal,
King of Scotland and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa, has gone
into a coma in a Saudi Arabian hospital…
