Here's another fun fact. Jason Bourne was actually based on Castro's life. In both cases, the CIA kept trying to kill them but they couldn't because they were genetically engineered superspies.
Also, Bush did 9/11.

What if it's called "The Wannabe Dictator Files"? Then we could add one about a certain US president whom I shall not name.

In question #4, 'Argentinian' is spelt wrong. And the answer 'AIDs' should be written as 'AIDS'.
