Lenin's Bolshevik buddy Nikolai Bukharin was there at the end: "When I ran into Ilich's room, full of doctors and stacked with medicines, Ilich let out a last sigh ... Ilich, Ilich was no more...

Saddam sat in what appeared to be a makeshift studio, with a backdrop consisting of what seemed to be an ordinary, wrinkled white bed sheet, with an Iraqi flag on Saddam's right and the Iraqi eagle symbol attached to the sheet over his left shoulder. There were two microphones attached to the podium, and he wore a third on his uniform shirt...
