Clearly I am alone in the opinion that it is far more difficult to take control from someone who has suddenly been removed from power (i.e. murdered), rather than to undermine their position beforehand and remove them by proxy. The bonus being that whatever you decide to do with them after that is infinitely easier because it can be done quietly so that people won't notice. Murders of dictators can do funny things to people - gets them all throwing in their own lots for an old fashioned power struggle.
That is of course if you want to remove them at all. Power is infinitely easier to exercise when people can't identify you as the one responsible for it.

That's true. Like they said in that film, no-one wants to shoot the vice-president.
So if I ever write a story about all of us, Tim's going to have to be the grand vizier.

As long as I don't have a badmouthed parrot as a lackey, all's good.
