Top Ten Worst World Leaders

He is the great corruptionist and using his richness to get permanent power. Also, he tries hard to rule all of the power in the democracy system, parliament, government, and court by changing the current constitution for him and his relatives.

Killed over 2,000 innocents to fight against drugs, betrayed his own country by persuading a country close-by to invade into the northeast part of Thailand just for his own petroleum investment business purpose.

He is one of the most stupid guy forever that chose the wrong side to be the prime minister of the most beautiful country as Thailand. Just the first decision that he made, everything has been destroyed until now and only words that can say are ' he is the cold blood monster ever and ever.

Corrupted (and convicted) former Prime Minister who now escapes his punishment and lives in exile in many countries. He is using his power to destroy his homeland through the government of his sister Yingluck Shinawatra. He and his supporters keep repeating the word "democracy" but have never followed its principles. His army the "Red Shirt" is very aggressive and always threaten to harm Thaksin's opponents.

Adolf Hitler was a crazy man. Thought only of himself and world domination. Seriously, nothing is more messed up than that. But seriously, George W. Bush? If I had to choose between sane and insane, I'd choose sane hands down. Hitler was EVIL. George Bush should be shoved out of the way to make some room for Hitler. Hitler is beyond worthy of the number one award for the Worst World Leader. Hitler, bow down for your fans as they applause you're nowhere near nice personality that will break mirrors.

He was good for his country, his orders came from the neo-government and he followed them willingly. What he did to innocent people can not be forgotten, but there are many people worse than Hitler. It is easy to believe that Hitler was the worst leader in the world because of the mainstream media exposure around the world. But we keep forgetting that the victors always write down the history of the world, not the losers. Adolf Hitler was responsible for the genocide of the Jewish masses and the leader of a fascist military lead system. He deserves to be in the top ten, but he is definitely not the worst. The worst are still alive, breathing and walking. The worst are brainwashing the commonwealth with their pretty words and transparent government. The worst are the monsters that lurk in the corners, the worst are still here and we can stop them. Hitler is dead and gone, yes he was horrible, but we cannot do anything to change the past. What we can do is stop the new Hitlers' of this ...more

When will history change back to where the truth is known about him? He was a full-fledged SOCIALIST...NOT a conservative by any means...

He praised a scorched earth policy of killing off anyone who was against him politically...or spiritually (especially Jews and Christians)...even with a Nazi Pope installed at the Vatican...

He funded Muslim terrorists (one group was later renamed with the initials of PLO) to continue on with his killing spree...

The only good thing he ever did was drag the United States out of the Great Depression by starting a war that he could not win... FDR wouldn't admit this because his policies dragged us deeper into it...

Call me heartless, but although Hitler was a horrible man, he was actually a good leader. Let me explain. He did horrible things as a leader, the Holocaust, but he got a lot of people on his side. He was a good leader because of how he got people on his side for a terrible thing. In other words if Hitler was a bad leader, th Holocaust would never have happened. And he wouldn't be well known either. So just because he was a horrible person and I disagree with everything he did, I can't say he was a terrible leader, because being a terrible leader is different than being a terrible person.

Most stupid Thai, The first only one leader who visit more than 50 country around the world within 2 years

She is stupid of both Thai & English languages.

She is puppetry of her brother.

Yingluck Shinawatra has never played a true leader role in her life. She is just an average Thai woman growing up as the youngest child in the Shinawatra family. She had no brain in terms of intelligence but only her well dressed, both in clothes and accessories. She had never been involved in politics and only 43 days prior to the 2011 election, she was on the top of the list to become the first candidate for a prime minister although she was not a leader of the Pheu Thai Party. While in office, she has no clues whatsoever of what's happening, what to say, and what to do. In all diplomatic talks with other leaders of other nations, she would read her notes of what to say and keeps repeating the same certain sentences at a period of time (per an advice of what to say at a circumstance). She makes a million mistakes in live speeches. She did nothing from her own opinion but follows the orders from her fugitive ex-PM brother, Thaksin Shinawatra. She said she would utilize a women's ...more

In terms of administration, he was effective at times. However, his rule was utterly immoral. He was responsible for the deaths of 20 million people, of which many were his own. He sent people to Gulags, he purged the army and was intolerant of opposition. He tried to justify this with communist ideology but he lived his life with affluence and indulgence and he gave no power to the people, which was the fundamental premise of marxism. He was very critical of Hitler when he wanted to be, but was happy enough to deal with Hitler to partition Poland along with non-aggression with Germany. However, he never expected Hitler to keep the promise, and was using the bought time to rebuild his army after having purged it of officers. Therefore, it was only because Hitler was already at war with the Allies that led the liberal democracies to work with Stalin. Perhaps this is why he is never considered first when thinking for the worst leader of history and Hitler usually is.

During world war 2 many people in for example Estonia or Poland who did not agree with Stalin and the soviet republic, were taken from their homes and sent to "working camps" or were torured and killed by the KGB.

One survivor of the Gulag says that his wifes uncle and the ucles wife had been arrested. Before the uncles wife were allowed to leave she had heard her husband being dragged into a torture chamber. When she were allowed to leave she entered the chamber she could she her husband. His feet had been burned and the skin had peeled off. His hands had been tied behind his back with barbed wire. He also said: "and if I'm not mistaken his eyes had been gouged out and his lips cut off.

If you ask a random person on the street if they could name an event during world war 2, there is a very big chance that they will say "The holocaust". The problem is that not many people know about the crimes made by the soviets.
But at last countries who were occupied by soviet are ...more

Hitler was an apprentice of Stalin. When Hitler came to power in Germany, mass murder and death camps were already an everyday reality in Soviet Russia. Until 1941 the Nazis and the Soviets were actually best friends. Hitler was defeated, but help from the western allies allowed Stalin to occupy some of the neighbouring countries and to expand his terror over most of East Europe. The mass murders and deportations continued right until Stalin's death in 1953. But even now he is respected as a hero among the majority of the Russian people. In fact, he is the worst of the worst.

I agree. Stalin should be way higher on this list. Had he lived to see the Cuban Missile Crisis, World War III would have started and we can only wonder how that would have turned out in a world that had already entered the nuclear age.

The difference between Stalin and most of the others on this list is simple: Communism's influence spread during Stalin's time in power, but he also had a military that was strong enough that to change our geopolitical world in a way that you wouldn't want to imagine.

Who knows how long he'll stay in office? It doesn't look like we'll see his successor in few decades. He remains a leader by shutting up his opponents. He and his associates must indoctrinate their citizens in order to survive. One wrong move, the whole family go to prison and backbreaking labour. All of the media is propaganda. He ensures all citizens to avoid foreign influences along with South Korean. He keeps launching missiles until USA is destroyed. He has no care for innocent civilians. I believe he'll remain a North Korean Workers Party Secretary until his death. He's not stopping anytime soon.

Hello, my name is Kim. Born to my father Kim, who was born to my grandfather Kim, who was also born to my great grandfather Kim. I live in the most glorious country in the world, North Korea. In this glorious country, we launch glorious nuclear missiles to not-so-glorious countries. One of my favorite activities is watching my glorious nuclear missiles fly gloriously over this glorious land. I also like food. Food is very glorious, especially in this glorious country & it is all for me. Thank you for reading this glorious post by the most glorious leader ever, Kim.

Does this guy even realize all the trouble and pain he's caused for his own people? After his grandfather and father before him took over, North Korea is one of the most dangerous countries in the world.

24/7 I wonder what he will do next. Uses lies of EVERYTHING! He even claims he invented the hamburger! (Really Louis Lassen). Every second each day, I wish SO hard to grab his HEAD and RIP it in half slowly to suffer like these innocent people who were killed. If God "never" makes mistakes, creating him is a DEFINATE exception!

His family has controlled everything in North Korea only to please themselves but not North Korean people. Korean has been divided for many decades. Families have been separated and if someone dare to escape out of the country, people behind them will be killed. What on earth this can be called a country! Please free the people. We are in the 21st century! Human can walk in the space now. All the thing that Kim Jong II and his followers have done can not be legal at all!

Kim Jong II has been a real threat to the world, like his son, Kim Jong Un, especially to America because they made a new nuclear weapon. I can't believe his family brainwashed everyone so they think they are the best country in the world and America the worst! They were even forced to cry when Kim Jong II died! People in the capital, Pyongyang, clapped in front of the big screen of the city when the nuclear bomb was finished by his son!

I feel sorry for the people who live in North Korea because He brainwash almost everyone from birth to Adulthood. The people see him as a divine god rather than a corrupt leader that he truly is.

When he died and I saw the news I was so mad at him I was happy that day. Tons of people were suffering badly in his country and guess what. Instead of using his cash to help his people he buys a waterslide and a giant pool. Yea I know it's nice to have a pool but why would you let your country suffer?

Hello, my name is Pol Pot. My real name is Saloth Sar, but I changed it to Pol Pot because the Pot in Pol Pot is basically my reign, useless and dangerous. I kill millions of my own people because they are: autistic, wear glasses, smart, etc. I want to become a communist just like my idol Mao Zedong, but I do very bad at it. Nobody in Cambodia is allowed to eat, we should learn from our relatives and make food for ourselves. The food we currently have is stored in the warehouses I stole from US president Richard Nixon. I send anyone who don't comply to Genocide Areas where they get executed a slow and painful death. I am the biggest idiot in the world and I will turn ugly ass America into the Stone Age just like Cambodia! This has been Pol Pot, and I will see you soon...

A Communist dictator who was responsible for one of the most devastating genocides in human history. Murdering a quarter of his country's population, enforcing iron and extremely strict laws to keep his totalitarian control, creating a famine that is responsible for the deaths of over 1,000,000 Cambodians, and sending prisoners to the horrifying Killing Fields.

Pol Pot is the worst leader of anything ever. He wanted to become communist, so instead of destroying businesses outright, he massacres 3 million people, or the entire middle class! This, along with the widespread poverty in Cambodia reduced the population to a tiny handful of only 250,000 people! Hitler and Stalin may have been bad leaders, but they didn't kill of and entire class of people or reduce their population to practically nothing! Pol Pot is hands down the worst leader EVER.

Hitler and Stalin might be evil, but at least Hitler got Germany out of the recession and Stalin modernized Russia. As bad as the other leaders were, I don't think anyone would match up to Pol Pot. Other dictators might be evil, but Pol Pot was an idiot who almost threw Cambodia back to the stone ages.

He is a good friend with Thaksin. These guy know only how to make money and benefits for their family and friends ( who return the benefits) by taking the advantage of the country.

He's an idiots.
Everything he do is not for a country but for his family and all followers wealth only.
He tries to take an ownership of the country, same like Thaksin does with Thailand.
He leaves the large amount of people stay poor and uneducated in rural areas but his family and all his closed-relations are become richer and wealthier.

A good example of devil...

Hun Sen has just to keep his power, he killed his own people; he destroyed almost all the Cambodian forest by land concession; he established his affiliated persons to run business for the benefits of his group; he does not his own employees and workers and refuses appropriate pay in results non of public institutions functional properly.

This is worst world leaders, not most evil people. Hitler, although evil and insane, knew how to run a country very well. Saddam did NOT know how to run a country, plus he was insane, evil, and all around a pretty bad guy. I mean, come on, his name means "The Destroyer" which his mother named him because his birth took longer then usual and it was more painful then usual. (Which is what his leadership ended up being)

The maniac who Invaded Iran, Kuwait and said that" Jews, Persians ( Iranians) and Flies are useless" deserves to be on the top of this list.

This is a thug who knows nothing about leadership except kill and more kill. He made his oil rich country very poor as he juggles from one stupid war to anothet..until George Bush hanged him and sent him to hell.

A hateful Arab leader that Iranians defeated him awfully, he was coward and many times he asked from Iran please stop the war, because Arabs are short and nothing against Iranians. Persians kicked her ass indeed.

He lied to America to drag it into a war that killed hundreds of thousands of non-combatants and traded those human lives for money so he and his friends could get more rich off of death. That is evil in my opinion. There were zero weapons of mass destruction! When he became President the US economy was great and had a government surplus - when he finished with us we had the worst economy since the great depression and highest unemployment, yet him and all his buddies were richer than ever.

Why is he ABOVE Stalin? You Americans hate your politicians so much that you believe he is even worse than the Communist regime which America is so against? People like Stalin and Mussolini left black marks on society, Bush didn't do something even close to that magnitude! People should be ashamed of themselves! So full of hate that you are willing to say anything against the leaders of your lifetime, because you are so narrow-minded and completely uneducated. Not that Bush was a good president - he wasn't. But you seriously think he is worse than tyrannical dictators and fascists and everyone of the like? Proof that the average person doesn't know about or care about human history, and is only brainwashed by other idiots.

Before 9/11 President George "Duped-Ya" Bush never lifted a finger against al Qaeda, Bin Laden, any of the hijackers, or any terrorists anywhere. There is no record of his administration taking a single aggressive act against OBL and his terrorist organization.

Before 9/11 He did order American military forces facing al Qaeda to stand down, calling back the submarines that could launch cruise missiles. He proclaimed "I didn't want a cruise missile flying up a camel's butt."

Before 9/11 He ordered discontinuing the Predator drone surveillance and hunting of OBL and al Qaeda, fearing a downed drone would make for bad publicity on CNN.

You support Obama? The one who criticized bush on how he raised our national debt to 9 trillion when Obama in his four years raised it to 17 trillion and counting! The Obama administration that allowed an American ambassador be murdered in the Middle East who requested for help. The Obama that created a health plan that 70% or more of Americans do not welcome. Well if this is were American is going their is no right to criticize someone who is in no compare to how bad Obama really is.

He works for Thaksin Shinawatra and does everything for money. He's one of the red shirt who ordered people to burn town hall in Bangkok.

Talkative but nonsense. Have any knowledge about job. Just speech for violence and money.

He work for Thaksin, for money only not difference from his boss.

He will do everything for money.

Killer, mass murderer, monster. And that's just Ukraine. Most following him say he was like that before, what he always does, brutal, such as to other eastern countries, was it Georgia? Even the anti-war rejects who while right, attack Ukraine, Russia's victim, and applaud Russia, even THEY are quieting down as they see the mass civilian deaths and crimes against humanity by Vladimir Putin. I guess sleeping at night isn't a concern for psychopaths and all those that follow him, called Russians and western retards.

He is power hungry, warmongering, and dangerous and wants to get the Soviet Union back then invades Ukraine and kills many people for his own selfish agenda and leaves others in fear.

This guy definitely deserves to be higher. Of course, he isn't as bad as Hitler or Stalin and the others, but he has no compassion or sympathy for others at all, especially with the Ukraine situation.

This guy. All he ever cares about is bringing back the Soviet Union, and will do so at the expense of literally everyone. This was his goal even before his invasion of Ukraine, where he has openly showed how willing he is to find new lows.

He somehow managed to ruin the country with the biggest oil reserves on the planet during the pinnacle of oil bonanza. Also he immersed Venezuela into a criminal rampage, only in the capital, more than 100 people are murdered on the streets per week.

You don't know how bad this man was. Corruption is EVERYWHERE. They took our oil export money, and the one they stole from us, and then split it between them AND his puppet master Fidel Castro. There is not a single aspect he improved in 14 years. He made two coups before people somehow elected him president.
His goon and successor, Nicolás Maduro is as bad as him except he's stupider. He was a bus driver!
Venezuela IS DROWNING BECAUSE OF THIS MAN.

Sean Penn likes him! What more can I say!

He turned a paradise into a hell.

Actually, he was the best leader out of the Kim Dynasty. He actually gave the North Koreans more freedom than his son and grandson, but he was still a dictator who attempted to invade South Korea with the help of the Soviet Union.

He is should be number 2 along with his son and grandson North Korea is one of the worst and dangerous countries to live in.. The Kim family make North Korea a living HELL!

Founded the living hell known as North Korea with brainwashing, concentration camps, guilt by association, and Worst of all, Juche which doesn't Work. HE IS A MONSTER!

He got his country into a war and he created a evil ideology that is based on stalinism. Also, he was treated as a god and was an atheist.

He took advantage of his country being in abject poverty and flaunted his wealth while others suffer. All whilst doing nothing for his people's good. Good riddance.

Robert Mugabe is a violent dictator who justifies his actions by blaming events that happened hundreds of years ago as an excuse for hyperinflation, poor economic growth, use of government funds for lavish purposes, and violent military action against civilians

Death squads, hyperinflation, racial discrimination, huge corruption, this guy ticks all the boxes for a terrible leader.

Because he refused being used by whites? And that makes him a worst president. Wow!

This dude should be in top 5, he literally impales his own citizens and cuts off women's breast and forces the men to eat it. That is just as bad as Hitler and Stalin.

What? Do you think he was bad, don't you know of Ceausescu, At least Tepes did all of this you consider bad for Romania, why do you think Stefan the Great, Moldova's best leader ever, helped him and even rescued Vlad from death, because together they could defeat every country of that time, but they never did that because they wanted to help Romania, Moldova and the Christian world unlike others (Bush, Obama, Kim Jong Un, Hitler, Stalin etc)
And no matter what you think about him Romania will always think he was one of the best leaders of his time. And he is. He may have killed humans and look frightening, but he only killed people who were a threat to his country and the Christian world.

People focus too much on the most recent events. Case in point on this list: Vlad the Impaler. He was way worst than the majority of the other people on this list.

I guess this guy drinks (sucks) blood from people is the reason why we have this fictional character (Dracula) that we recognized today.

Quite literally destroyed his own country just to stay in power.
Would have been ousted years ago had it not been for Russia, Iran, and Hezbollah bending over backwards to save him.

He should be on top of this list, he displaced one third of the population and caused almost 200,000 be killed and destroyed and bombarded several cities. To count few of the reasons..

Yeah, why isn't he the first in the worst world leaders list? He's killed a lot of people and displaced many citizens of the country he's ruling. He's the scum of the earth.

He is a horrible dork stupid poopy butt he killed a lot of people including children. He should not be right here. Why the is he right here?

He purposely makes it look like he is going to attack the U.s, then when the us tries to stop them they accuse them of invasion (which they did to protect their country) and theft. Cuba was an OK country before him, now its an obsolete garbage country, the best to date cars are cars that were made in the 50's in the us, theirs no computers or laptops, people still drive carriages and wagons, and the whole country is nothing but a slum thanks to him.

Imagine what would have happened had Fidel Castro not thrown that hissy fit in Cuba after missing a cut with the Washington Senators baseball team as a pitcher... I knew that Cubans were passionate about baseball...but that was taking things WAY too far...

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he actually had some money on the growing of ANTIFA in the US...

And now his little brother is ruling this country. Free Cuba, North Korea, or any other countries that are still in these types of governments.

Wow. The Cuban dictator. Think about a lot of inhumane things he did.
