Why are communist leaders called dictators?
Most Communist states do not degenerate into dictatorships, but they do degenerate into authoritarian regimes based on party-control over all aspects of the state and government.
This occurs because all Communist states have been thus far based on the political practice of Leninism and theories of Marxism-Leninism (aka, Stalinism).
Leninism is the view that a Vanguard party organized along paramilitary lines and comprised of "professional revolutionaries" is required in order to achieve a worker's revolution. After the revolution, this party would centralize all power in its hands for the purpose of leading the nation in the development of socialism.
The strategy of Leninism is based on the centralized Vanguard party and the idea of democratic centralism, which states that once the party makes decisions, those decisions cannot be questioned. This is done to make the party an efficient organization impervious to counter-revolutionary action.
Leninism and the political system of democratic centralism set the stage for authoritarianism and for the abuse of political power by the party-elite, because the party is given so much power and is not held accountable to any other public body.
Ultimately, it is antithetical to socialism and communism which require collective decision-making and widespread participation by all members of society. The logical outcome is authoritarian rule by the party (or in some cases, as during Stalin's and Mao's rule, by the leader of the Party).

NOTE:
No religion must be allowed to rule the political aspect of a society, it must aim only to elevate the citizens spiritual enlightenment and give them a code of morals but more than that is out of their pond. Please remember that a church or any organized religion is made up by man and women who are like you and me, they are not appointed neither by the prophets nor the God, organized religions are run by humans they are not appointed nor run by prophets nor God.
Religion matters must be and remain totally separate from the State political matters, just like the great and enlightened and brilliant statesmen Mustafa Kemal Atatürk gave example.
No monarch, no minority group or class, no matter how refined their lordships imagine themselves are, should have a veto over a democratically elected parliament for this abuse of power will certainly lead to fascism.
The first fascist state in the history of the West, Italy, was before becoming a fascist dictatorship a constitutional Monarchy. King Victor Emmanuel the third of Italy removed a democratically elected Liberal government and replace it with a fascist dictatorship. The first fascist state in the East, Japan, was also originally a constitutional Monarchy. Conservative supporters of the Japanese Emperor assassinated the democratically elected prime minster, the leader of the Japanese Liberal Constitutional party, and replaced him with a dictatorship.
The lesson is simple, there is really only one safeguard for democracy and that is democracy itself; constitutional Monarchs, Houses of Lords, Popes or whoever, are no substitutes in themselves for democracy, can only undermine democracy and therefore should be removed to safeguard democracy.
Egypt is now officially a democracy not a dictatorship.

Why were dictators important in ancient rome?
Dictators were important in ancient Rome because they were appointed in times of crisis. Crisis is the key word. When there was a major crisis its solution was debated in the senate with all senators having the right to air their views. This could take days. (There were anywhere from five to six hundred senators, depending upon the time) So to avoid long drawn out, time consuming debates , the senate would vote to appoint a dictator with authority to solve the problem.

How was Hitler able to become dictator of Germany?
He had help from a former ruler of Germany, (I don't remember his name) who then got him support from the Catholic Church. Once he was in power, Hitler diminished Parliament, so that he had all the power.
Hu Jintao has changed the communist party a great deal for the better and has ended any forms of censorship. however despite what his personal wishes may be on the subject the single party structure of the people's republic will not be easy to change and there are still many supporters of Hu's predecessor Jiang Zemin who do not want to see much change. Hu not a dictator in the sense that he does not at all hold absolute power as well
This is the said comcept of the Ishnaa Ashari Shi'a sect. They consider Maulaana 'Ali (as) as their first Imaam and their 12th Imaam has disappeared and this sect harbour a belief that their 12th Imaam, Imaam Mehdi will appear again in this world and establish peace.
The Shi'a Isma'ili Musta'ali Faatemi sect consider Imaam Hasan (as) - the son of Maulaana 'Ali (as) as the first Faatemi Imaam. They don't consider Maulaana 'Ali (as) as the 1st Imaam but they consider him on the rank of Wasaayat - as the Wasi or vicegerent of Rasoolullaah (saws). This sect have the succession of 21 Imaam, their 21st Imaam went under seclusion and they have belief that the Imaam from the progeny of 21st Imaam will appear before the world and establish peace and harmony.

What countries have totalitarian dictatorship?
North Korea,Burma,Cuba,China, Zimbabwe
Current or Past???
Well the number is more than just 5 . to the list you must include Iran, Iraq , Afghanistan, Venezuela , Bolivia and so on
Kill anyone ...... .Actually . . . this answer doesn't really work for this question. It does if you have absolutely no moral outlook on dictatorship and what is involved in it. Secondly, killing someone does not a make a person a dictator. It just makes them a killer.
To become a dictator you must know what it is you want and have the determination to get it---no matter what it takes to get there, you will do anything. Burn places down and blame it on communists (or another government body people in your state or country hate), also there would need to be a lot of bloodshed and blood on your hands for you to be a success in any of this.
To rule the world is to get respect from people through fear and need of security. By creating these situations where people need you, you are gaining more and more power.
There is a lot I can go on and on about, but I will not go into detail, as it is highly unlikely that the level of dictatorial power that Hitler acquired will ever be surpassed.
The man was powerful and he got there in his position through intelligence---perhaps not morally correct intelligence, but he was strong enough mentally and emotionally to get where he did, no matter what.
It was also worlds colliding that got him to be a dictator. It was pure luck. Hitler had so many attempts on his life, yet none of those attempts followed through successfully did they? Nope, they never did. Strange, isn't it? Or maybe this was prophecy?
Whatever the case, to become a dictator there is a road with a lot of turns before you get there. Become politically active, for one thing. Learn your stuff, and follow your beliefs based on what you are choosing to follow.
He had a strategy. Power through politics got him to be a dictator where he was. Hitler knew full well what he stood for. To be powerful, you need to be able to withstand criticism, which I'll bet Hitler had a lot of since most of Germany despised him while he was being elected during the 1930s right behind Hindenberg.
When Man hungers for power, he will stop at nothing. If lies, deceit, murder, destruction and war can get him there, he will face that all just for the power over the world. And who doesn't want power over the world, right?
I could probably go on and on with this, but there isn't enough room. Dictatorship is something to check out online. Try going to Yahoo! search engine and type in "how do i become a dictator like Hitler" and then click down the page until you come across some catching links and click those and read, read, read. u kill everyone and rule their lives!!!!!!!!
