	There are depressingly too many referents on Roundworld both historical (the Nazis) and current... without naming names and risking libel actions, certain religious/political leaders in Northern Ireland whose speeches are all about the menace posed by feckless and untrustworthy followers of a different but related religion. And what about the extreme Rabbis in Israel who regularly demand righteous smiting of the ungodly Arabs, followers of an inferior religion, who still persist in the deluded impression that the West Bank really belongs to them? Or indeed the imams screaming for Jihad against the perfidious Jews and Western infidels? Or the extreme Hindus demanding India become a Hindu theocracy and all Moslems, Sikhs and Christians be expelled? Or American christian evangelists screaming for a new crusade against Satanic forces in the world? Wherever you look, there's a demagogue of some sort...

One of the [[Grag|Grags]] in [[Book:Thud!|Thud!]] who came from [[Uberwald]] to preach in [[Ankh-Morpork]] while he and other grags searched for a lost [[Cube]].

==Annotation==
A Dwarf, whose position makes him part "religious" leader and part politician, making inflammatory speeches about the racial inferiority, mendacity, laziness, general untrustworthiness and perfidy of Trolls, the great enemy, inciting passions in an overcrowded city where the lowest common denominator is always ready to blame others for its misfortunes and go scapegoat-hunting.

There are depressingly too many referents on Roundworld both historical (the Nazis) and current... without naming names and risking libel actions, certain religious/political leaders in Northern Ireland whose speeches are all about the menace posed by feckless and untrustworthy followers of a different but related religion. And what about the extreme Rabbis in Israel who regularly demand righteous smiting of the ungodly Arabs, followers of an inferior religion, who still persist in the deluded impression that the West Bank really belongs to them? Or indeed the imams screaming for Jihad against the perfidious Jews and Western infidels? Or the extreme Hindus demanding India become a Hindu theocracy and all Moslems, Sikhs and Christians be expelled? Or American christian evangelists screaming for a new crusade against Satanic forces in the world? Wherever you look, there's a demagogue of some sort...
