South Park villain, Saddam Hussain - former Iraqi dictator.  Back in 1980, Detroit gave the ex-president of Iraq a key to commemorate his kindness and cooperation with the West.  Rev. Jacob Yasso, who ran Chaldean Sacred Heart church in the Motor City, stated this recently when asked why they gave Saddam a key.
