      Can anyone here think of a European leader who's been assassinated. I can't think of any in the last century.

      (Archduke Ferdinand, sure. But he wasn't the leader of Austria-Hungary.)

        Hmm, I can't.

        Perhaps this is a good first step toward figuring out what's wrong with Europe.

          Engelbert Dollfuss, Austrian chancelor, 1934.

          There were several murder attempts against Charles de Gaulle too.

          I'm sure there are others.

                Wasn't there some state representative that financed the recall campaign because he thought he could win the recall election before Schwarzeneger said he'd run?

                Olof Palme. 1986. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olof_Palme is the first that comes to mind.
