Since the theme for Necronomicon 2005 is Revolution I thought I would start discussion with the folowing topic:

Who is you favourite revolutionary leader and why?

[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernardo_O'Higgins]Don Bernardo O'Higgins[/url] is my favourite revolutionary leader, for freeing Chile from the tyrannical clutches of the King Fernando VII of Spain.

Also, his name is Don Bernardo O'Higgins. How cool is that?

Hi all,
For me, it has to be JESUS CHRIST. He still effects the world over 2000 years after his Death and Resurrection!
Anyone seen "The Passion of the Christ", produced by Mel Gibson?
Andrew.

My personal favority is Abimael Guzman, revolutionary leader of the Shining Path movement in Peru in the 1980s

The academic/relovtionary/father figure was taken by the authorities without a shot and preceeded to tell 100s of names of associates to lessen his sentence

Sod the revolution when it's my bacon frying on the hotplate!

Viva La Revolution!
