The Dictator
Tensions are rising
as the stand-off
between the world community and the
rogue North African nation of Wadiya
intensified today
as U.N. weapons inspectors were once
again refused access to the country
by Wadiyan leader,
Admiral General Aladeen.
I will take no options
off the table. And I mean what I say,
Tonight we ask...
Who is General Aladeen?
According to
Wadiyan propaganda,
Haffaz Aladeen
was bom in 1973.
He did not know his mother,
who died in childbirth.
GeneralAIadeen was born
the only son of the Colonel Aladeen,
himself a savage
and violent dictator.
Next!
Known for his iconic beard,
he is protected
by 30 female guards,
who he maintains
are virgin.
Thrust into power
at age seven,
he may just be the most dangerous
man in the entire world.
All right,
let's get right to it,
Do you have
nuclear weapons?
What was the question'?
Do you have
nuclear weapons?
Sorry, I can't hear you.
Are you developing
nuclear weapons?
No, I literally
can't hear you.
I'm going to
another question.
Oh, I can hear you now.
Eccentric and with
unlimited oil wealth,
he recently hosted
his own Olympic Games...
On your mark, get set.
...at which he won
fourteen gold medals.
Aladeen! Aladeen!
Often described
as ignorant,
he changed
over 300 Wadiyan words to "Aladeen, "
including the words "positive" and
"negative," causing mass confusion.
Do you want
the Aladeen news or the Aladeen news?
The Aladeen news'?
You are HIV-Aladeen,
With pressure mounting,
Aladeen addressed
his nation today.
Aladeen! Aladeen!
People of Wadiya,
I come before you today
to tell you that the world shall
kneel before our great nation,
We are two months away from
enriching weapons-grade uranium
to be used
for peaceful purposes,
It will be used
only for medical research
and clean energy.
It will, it will.
And will certainly
never be used
to attack ls...
Oh, boy.
With that speech, today,
the international community
is asking one question:
Does the Mad Dog of Wadiya
have nuclear weapons?
Now, show me
my nuclear weapons!
I can't wait!
I can't wait!
This is the Beard
of Doom rocket?
This is my weapon?
I will be a laughingstock!
All my friends
have got nuclear weapons,
Even Ahmadinejad!
And he looks like
Would it kill him
to wear a tie?
I mean, is every day
in Iran casual Friday'?
Where is the Head of my Nuclear
Program and Procurer of Women?
Where is Nuclear Nadal'?
You had Nadal executed,
Supreme Leader.
Why did I do that?
Supreme Leader!
Nadal.
We are just months away
from refining weapons-grade uranium,
and we are set
to test the missile next week.
It is too round on the top
It needs to be pointy.
Round is not scary.
Pointy is scary.
This will put a smile
on the faces of the enemy.
They will think that it is a huge robot
No, Supreme Leader.
has nothing to do with aerodynamics,
It is about
the payload delivery,
No. It sticks in the ground,
and then kaboom.
Supreme Leader,
I think perhaps
some of your information
about bombs is coming from cartoons,
Nonsense.
They were research films,
And in them,
the victims of the bomb
would get
very sooty faces
and then a see-through
version of themselves
started rising up towards Heaven
while playing a harp.
In this film,
just one question,
was there a duck who,
when the explosion is happens,
his bill goes
around to the back of his head,
and then in order to talk,
he has to put it back this way'?
There was somebody
who suffered a deformity like that,
Okay.
I am now 100% sure
that you are watching cartoons,
Have you spoken to
- Have you consulted Professor Bobeye?
- Who?
Professor Bobeye, the one
with the incredibly strong forearms
that are miss-sized
for his body,
The man you are discussing
is called Popeye.
- Bobeye.
- He is not a professor,
Popeye is, as the song
tells us, a sailor man.
Indulge me. For one second,
pretend that I'm an idiot.
Okay. I'm there.
And explain to me
how this bomb
will not land in Israel
and then, literally,
bounce right back and blow up Wadiya.
Supreme Leader,
let me explain to you.
You've lost me,
This is the missile
in Wadiya,
you push the button, "Boop!"
Israel
No! Why?
Nuclear winter,
The reality is
0y vey!
Us.
Believe me, sir, if I could make
the device even a little more pointy,
I would,
but I simply cannot.
Okay. You know what?
Let's just agree
to disagree, my friend.
Okay.
What? Why'? No!
- Don'! you remember'?
- Of course I remember!
How dare you question my
memory? I remember everything!
Never! I'm so sorry. I didn't mean that,
Don't worry, it's fine.
Well done, my friend.
Thank you.
Wait! Wait!
Where are we going?
Admiral General,
what if we just tell the United Nations
we have no nuclear weapons'?
They will lift
the sanctions,
We'll be free
to sell oil rights to the Jalabiya desert,
Uncle Tamir,
Do you not remember
what my saintly father
made me promise him
on his deathbed'?
It was never
to sell Wadiya's oil,
You remember that
was when he gave me power
instead of you,
the rightful heir.
You've been so cool about it
Now, let's go back
to the palace.
It's the season finale
of Real Housewives
of Shachahmahahfalimitahlicchl
Aladeen! Aladeen!
Death to the tyrant!
Looks like we need
to find a new double.
Because this one is
You know, I don't know
if he's going to get better.
Oh, he's not going
to recover, sir. He's dead.
Send his wife some
in a cellophane wrapped box.
Delicious.
We're going to send
your wife some almonds,
Chocolate covered
versions of these,
Maroush, I think I dropped
an almond in his head.
Can you take it out?
What I don'! want to do is
send the body to the family
and then they discover
an almond in his head,
and they say,
"Why is there an almond in his head?"
Take it out,
Clean it!
How am I gonna eat that?
- Don't eat it.
- Oh, Maroush!
Listen, everything
is gonna be just fine.
I don'! want you to
worry about anything.
Yeah, how 'bout looking in my eye
when I'm speaking to you?
It's very rude not to look at somebody in
the eye when they're talking to you.
It's okay. Don't worry.
We shot the wrong man.
I can fix this. I have a new
plan. We need to find a new double.
be manipulated completely.
I think we found
what you are looking for.
You think this man
looks like me?
You have
a very ig barn.
You mus! have
many happy goats, hmm?
What the f***
does that even mean?
Uncle Tamir,
this thing is an idiot.
What makes you think
he can do the job'?
May I remind you that his only real job is
to be shot in the head.
Very well. Put him
through the process, okay'?
Clip his nails,
file his teeth,
bleach his skin,
and shorten the penis.
Megan! Megan!
