"your policies have continued poverty and starvation for millions of the world's poor, you continue to bully any nation poorer than the USA (oh, that'll be, um, everyone else then) through misuse of the WTO, you have contributed to the levels of needless violence in the world and continue to poison the world through your ludicrously shortsighted policies on the environment. But, hey, you ride a nice bike so never mind all that, let me shake you by the hand and buy you a drink!"

"........When Kenya cut off Uganda's fuel supplies in 1976 after Amin abruptly laid claim to a part of eastern Kenya, the Ugandan president took to a bicycle and rode unprotected by bodyguards from State House on top of Nsamizi Hill in Entebbe to the airport, waving to astonished bystanders. Kenya held up Uganda's fuel. But it allowed fuel trucks bound for Rwanda and Burundi to exit through her border. Amin confiscated much of the said fuel and doled it out to his soldiers. A bewildered Maj Gen Juvenal Habyarimana, then president of Rwanda flew into Uganda for talks about the fuel in transit. It's at this point that Amin exhibited his weird sense of humour by riding on a bicycle - to portray to his visitor that news about the said confiscation was false. His riding on a bicycle implied that Uganda was devoid of any fuel stocks; that not even Amin had access to fuel for his limousines........."
