So no it doesn't surprise me at all that he's not dead.
If the rebels after all the known assassination attempts havent managed to kill him yet, its probably more because of the tight security surrounding him or his presidential palace, which leads to the fact that they probably dont have what it takes to kill him yet. Thats why it requires a bodyguard's desire to kill him for an assassination to succeed.
