26. The only reason he is any of what you think he is just that
Now what will his poor little adversaries do. He died of somewhat of old age. If he lived by the sword why did he die of old age mostly?

Stole his country and his land, humiliated, tortured, starved, raped and pillaged his people. Razed the place he was living to a pile of rubble and yet the man does his best to pass away in dignity.

Even in this him being gone will do more for his cause than if he was living. He is a symbol alright, but that symbol is the one that you put in your mind yourself
