Here's a thought - "better the devil you know than the one you don't know"

He's a known quantity. If you cut off the head of a snake, then the snake dies.

Doesn't work with the leader of a nation. There will be confusion and a power struggle (unless there is a law to define the succession of a deceased leader) and then the next oligarch comes to power.

And then there's that pesky retaliation.
