  Fidel Castro  
 

To a large part of the world, Fidel Castro is an icon, who stood up to the US. Critics, however, point out that Cuba has remained a one-party state. Castro recently took advantage of the world's pre-occupation with the Iraq war in 2003 for biggest roundup of non-violent dissidents in more than a decade. He arrested 75 human-rights activists, journalists and academics, sentencing them to prison for an average of 19 years.
