Assassinations and Assassination Attempts

Nobody knows for sure. After extensive investigation the blue-ribbon Warren Commission concluded that Oswald was the lone gunman, However, many people have picked flaws in the Warren report and think there was at least one other gunman shooting from a nearby grassy knoll. There are no doubt other theories of possible mutliple gunmen.

They fear assianation because some people may not like how this emperor rules. For example Chandragupta ruled harshly and did things many rulers did not like. So they were afraid they would try to change the ways by killing him.

They learnt not to use open top cars again, and also not to announce the route in advance. They also introduced gun restrictions five years later to stop criminals and the mentally ill from being able to purchase weapons.

Anti-Castro activist were upset with Kennedy for not fully supporting the "Bay of Pigs" Invasion that was an attempt to over throw Castro in Cuba.

Assassination of İsmail Erez happened on 1975-10-24.

Assassination is the murder of a prominent person, usually for political purposes.

It is unclear what this question is asking about.

If the question is asking about Muslim-associated violence. Muslims today are not more involved in assassinations then any other group. While Muslims are responsible for a higher percentage of terror incidents than their overall percentage, terrorism and assassinations are different and Muslims assassinate political/military/religious, etc. figures as commonly/often as Non-Muslims.

If the question is asking about the historical Assassins, tThe Assassins were a historical sect of Shiite Islam (Nizari Ismailis) which controlled a state in the Middle East during the 11th-13th centuries.

The majority of Muslims did not become Assassins and most other Muslim groups from the same period referred rather derisively to the Assassins. When Alamut, Iran (the capital of the Assassin Nizari Ismaili Kingdom) was captured by the Mongols in 1256, it effectively ended the Assassins.

The assassinated prime ministers of Lebanon that I know are two. The first one is "Ryad Al-Sulah". The second one in 2004 is "Rafik Al- Hariri". "Ryad Al-Sulah", is an old Lebanese prime minister who lived the Lebanese civil war and was assassinated long time ago. Rafik Al-Hariri, as I mentioned before, was killed in 2004 and was one of the most famous Lebanese prime ministers.

The assassination of President McKinley made the Alaska boundary negotiations easier for America to deal with. Teddy Roosevelt, who took over for McKinley, was prepared to use force to settle disputes over Alaska and the Canadians backed down and let the United States set most of the boundaries.

JFK was the leader and THE man. He and his wife were like parents to all of America. JFK brought a feeling of protection to the people of America and when he died, the people lost that feeling protected.

You are probably referring to the Louisiana politician Huey Long. His nickname was "Kingfish." He was a former governor, and also was elected to congress; Long was well-known across the US-- a fiery populist, he preached redistributing wealth away from the rich, to ease the suffering of those who were struggling during the Great Depression. Long was frequently heard on radio and he gave very dynamic speeches in person too. He announced his candidacy for the presidency in August 1935. Unfortunately, he was assassinated in September. He was only 42 years old when he died.

The official story is single bullet theory, popularly known by skeptics as the "magic bullet" theory: A bullet traveled through the back of the neck and exited through the chest of one man, hit another man in the arm, fragmented into pieces and reassembled itself in a hospital miles away. Many experts have disputed this theory claiming that the rifle used cannot possibly cycle the bolt three times in six seconds without jamming. Rifle experts also noted the implausibility of firing at an oblique moving target from a two-story window. Oswald was a skilled marksman, but even if the magic bullet existed, it is doubtful that he could have fired it. A number of eye witnesses also dispute this theory in their testimony that they heard more than three shots fired from different directions. An alternate theory is that mafia bossman Sam Giancana ordered the hit on Kennedy with help from the CIA. A sharpshooter firing a rifle from the "Grassy Knoll" could have accomplished the assassination, (from which many witnesses saw smoke and heard gunshots) and former Communist defector Oswald was provided as the guilty party. Kennedy had narrowly beat Nixon in the 1960 election, allegedly with mafia support, and he appointed his younger brother Robert as Attorney General who then went after the mob with a vengeance. The mob saw this as a betrayal. Yet, they could not have accomplished the assassination without help from the US government. Oswald had defected to the USSR, but he was allowed to return to the US with his Russian wife in the middle of the Cold War, providing suspicious evidence of US government aid. As a motive for the CIA, they had planned the Bay of Pigs Invasion during the last year of the Eisenhower Adminisatration. Although Kennedy did not like the idea, he allowed the invasion to proceed. It has been suggested that his decision to withhold US Navy air support may have been perceived as a betrayal by the CIA.

It changed the world we lived in. It may have all ready started to change, but his death made it seem like it happened in hours. The early 1960's was a time of idealism and a everyone thought the future was bright. Vietnam wasn't a big issue, there was talk of going to the moon, the Kennedy family was young and fresh, and there was hope. The day he was shot was the "day the music died." It became a turning point and it seemed soon enough our boys were dieing in Vietnam as well as other problems.

Tensions between nations in European, including between Austria and Serbia, for a century after the Napoleonic Wars. The assassination was the last straw in Austria and Serbia's conflict and that conflict was the first one to cause the mobilization of troops. That mobilization caused Russia, then Germany and then France to go to war.

Nothing points to his working with officials to kill Lincoln. His diary reflects he thought he would be a hero to the southern states and restart the war, but he was surprised when he didn't get help and was alone in trying to hide from Union troops. The south responded with grief about the president's death and thousands lined the rail lines and roads to view his body going back to Illinois. I have been to the museum and unless the exhibits have changed recently nothing there proves that Booth worked with Confederate officials.

They didn't.

The simple facts of this open-and-shut case are as follows: Lee Harvey Oswald, alone, fired 3 shots at the President, hitting him twice. It took the more advanced forensics of more modern times to explain the bullet path of the second bullet, as well as to prove there was a concrete wall between the President and the Grassy Knoll "sniper" location at the time of the third, and fatal, head shot. Oswald just wanted to get his name in the history books and did... there is no speck of evidence that he had or needed help.

The simple facts are not enough to satisfy some people. They dislike gays, or the CIA, or the Mafia, and to their mind, this constitutes proof that JFK was killed by a conspiracy of same. The fact there is no shred of solid evidence, let alone proof, of any of this, is not interpreted as proof the conspiracy theory is wrong... as always, the conspiracy theorists take the lack of proof as evidence that the conspiracy was *perfect*!

The first attempt on Lenin's life was the night of January 14, 1918. After giving a speech in Petrograd, Lenin and his acquaintance Fritz Platten were driving home. While passing over a bridge, their car was shot at several times. Platten saved Lenin by forcing him to duck his head; Platten was wounded but not seriously. The driver was able to successfully evade the assassins, and Lenin survived.

The perpetrators turned out to be soldiers associated with the White Movement, the major group that opposed the Communist takeover of Russia. They were not caught, and were able to escape the country after the White Movement lost the Russian Civil War a few years later.
