So you call this "totalitarian dictator[ship] of the worst kind"? That terrible: those young folks singing praise to Tito in the stadium, then making naive multinational love in their dormitories, without knowing that they will have to forget everything (brainwashing or not) except attention for money, face color and evacuation roots, without knowing that their children will have very different youths, and even if they would see a better material non-exploding life, that would be soon poisoned (for the most, except rather few lucky) by recessionary debt burden or pure job alternatives. Were they not brainwashed more later?

And besides, what was immediately special about Gaddafi and North Korean regimes in the 1970s? Ironically, Saddam Husein was at "his best" right then, and enjoyed his best backing from the West at once.
