Yitzhak Shamir, Former Israeli Prime Minister, Dies at 96, Officials Say

Yitzhak Shamir, who emerged from the militant wing of Israel’s pre-state militia and served as prime minister longer than anyone except David Ben-Gurion, promoting a muscular Zionism and expansive settlement in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, died Saturday. He was 96.

His death was announced by the Israeli government.

As head of the right-wing Likud bloc, which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu now leads, Mr. Shamir served as premier from 1983 to 1984 and from 1986 to 1992. He had withdrawn from public life over the past decade, silenced by Alzheimer’s disease.

Nora Ephron has passed away at 71. RIP to a fine wordsmith.

Nora Ephron, an essayist and humorist in the Dorothy Parker mold (only smarter and funnier, some said) who became one of her era’s most successful screenwriters and filmmakers, making romantic comedy hits like “Sleepless in Seattle” and “When Harry Met Sally,” died on Tuesday in Manhattan. She was 71.

The cause was pneumonia brought on by acute myeloid leukemia.

Hey look, someone on my list died, I'm not on 0 points anymore, and it's not even yet the 2nd half of the year!

[OneFootInTheGrave]

He can, even though he already won, but the rest of us would play to be "the next best to Obama!". After all it is the American people who said so, and despite some of the America haters who would say otherwise - he already won, even here.

[Krill]

So Obama can't play with us?

[OneFootInTheGrave]

Well if you do it through the state, it is not even murder, just a patriotic action, but I am OK with that. Protecting freedom in the name of Apolyton Off Topic Celebrity Dead Pool , what else can be more glorious motivation for sending people to the other world?

[DaShi]

No, most people who commit murder think that they will get away with it.

And it still allows for people to improve their odds through their jobs, like Ozzy.
