Abstract
Assassinations, even of the most treacherous dictator, can shake a nation’s confidence, launch wars, or end them. But no matter who the mark is, high profile takedowns always shock humanity…
In stories motivated by obsession, hatred, politics, and fanaticism there are covert plots and dark conspiracies taking shape. For decades, the details of these plans, hatched to put an end to tyranny, have remained virtually unknown. Now, we go behind closed doors to meet the rebels, revolutionaries, and intelligence operatives tasked with undertaking these ruthless takedowns. What was their rationale for bloodshed?
From unchecked rises in power, to homegrown genocide and worse — what did these dictators do to inspire murderous intent? As assassins trained and toiled to prepare for rare windows of opportunity, who were the ones who funded them, equipped them, and backed them with a revolutionary spirit? And in the moment of truth, did events unfurl to leave one dead and the other holding a smoking gun? These are the plots that were designed To Kill a Dictator.
Robert P. Watson, on-screen expert, researcher, and writer:The six episode series, "To Kill a Dictator," produced by Go Button Media, will air in 2024 on networks Off the Fence & Super Channel.
