Even the most cruel and heartless tyrants needed a hobby to distract from their villainous thoughts. Of course, anyone will want to relax after having been busy all day oppressing weaker people, exploiting the population, torturing and killing.
Many cute hobbies, like watching various cartoons or writing romantic books, only paint and make more versatile. But this does not apply to ruthless dictators, whose love for their hobbies only scares and further repels.
Saddam Hussein and his romantic novels
The former Iraqi president was a cold-blooded leader who was not afraid to resort to even murder, just to maintain his position. The true number of his victims is unknown. Over 250 mass graves were discovered during his reign. Many people lived with eternal fear of meeting him. They were able to breathe out calmly only after his death in 2003.
But few people know that Saddam loved to write erotic and romantic novels. CIA agents found out about this quite by accident, who stumbled upon his book in London in 2001. An autobiographical novel called "Zabiba and the King" was full of various erotic scenes and fairly frank descriptions. This book was sold in one of the Arab bookstores.

Osama Bin Laden and Volleyball
The leader of one of the most famous terrorist organizations, the participant and organizer of the September 11 terrorist attack, perhaps the most cold-blooded person on Earth, loved to play beach volleyball after a long day.
Interestingly, the former leader of the al-Qaida terrorist organization, Mohammed Atef, also liked to throw the ball in his spare time. Although they never competed with each other, commenting on the fact that both are great players who do not need to prove anything.
Joseph Stalin and Nude Men
The reign of Joseph Stalin is evaluated differently. On the one hand, it was with the help of his policies that the Soviet Union became an industrial and military superpower. On the other hand, the ways in which this goal was achieved are quite severe.
Hunger, unemployment, a very low standard of living and a high mortality rate were the things that had to be done to raise the country.
Despite all the descriptions of Stalin as a tough dictator, after his death, many paintings depicting naked men were discovered. The leader himself did not draw them, he simply bought images from various artists and attributed various inscriptions to the paintings.

In the paintings one could see young people, men and even old people. All of these works were performed with exaggerated attention to various parts of the male body. Stalin did different signatures. In the collection, both humorous (“You need to work, not self-satisfaction. Time for re-education”) were found, as well as more sincere notes related to the fallen comrades (“Radek, the red bastard. If you weren’t so bad, you would be still alive").
Adolf Hitler loved Disney
One of the most evil people on the planet, Adolf Hitler loved to watch cartoons. It is hard to imagine that a tyrant who managed to exterminate about 6 million people and became the cause of the persecution of the entire Jewish people could calmly enjoy the film “Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs”. By the way, he considered this one of the best works that have ever been created.
Even color cartoons were found, made, according to rumors, by Hitler himself, on some cartoon characters.
