I doubt that an assassination would be very effective against any brutal dictator, as the country would immediately be swept into unrest as different parties attempt to fill the power vacuum produced by the decapitation of that government. One man doesn't run the whole government, there is the administrator of pain, genital battery charger, naked pyramid builder, genital pointer-at-er, hood weaver, and all sorts of other agents in charge of brutal torture also run the government. It's not like they all go away if you cap one guy. If the CIA did assassinate someone, it probably wouldn't be for noble aims like capping Milosevic or something, they probably want to off someone like Hugo Chavez, who resists globalizers influence in his country, has rhetoric critical of the U.S., and incidentally is sitting on a huge pile of oil.
