With US President Bill Clinton brokering the peace plan, Bosnian, Serb, and Croat leaders accept the Dayton Accords, which ends four years of a fighting in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Today in History 10/06 (Anwar Sadat)

October 6, 2018 by GµårÐïåñ
Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in 1978 (© Bill Foley/AP)(1981) Egypt’s Nobel Peace Prize-winning president is slain
Eight years to the day after launching the Yom Kippur War against Israel, and just over three years since signing the Camp David Accords that would lead to a peace treaty with Israel, President Anwar Sadat of Egypt is killed by militant fundamentalists as he reviews a Cairo army parade.
The assassination of Anwar Sadat occurred on 6 October 1981. Anwar Sadat, the President of Egypt, was assassinated during the annual victory parade held in Cairo to celebrate Operation Badr, during which the Egyptian Army had crossed the Suez Canal and taken back a small part of the Sinai Peninsula from Israel at the beginning of the Yom Kippur War. A fatwa approving the assassination had been obtained from Omar Abdel-Rahman, a cleric later convicted in the US for his role in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. The assassination was undertaken by members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
Date: Oct 06, 1981

Facebook i have made a personal choice after their "name policy" witch hunt which repeats every 2 years it seems at the whim of the "bully mob" (even when they make you jump through hoops and verify you), to just quit it and be done with it, they are not worth my time. I don't need it, I don't miss it, in fact it has made my life more productive and void of gross hate, vitriol and drivel. To those who say they can't stay in touch if I am not on there, if you can't reach me because I am not on Facebook, then you are not trying AT ALL - therefore, good riddance.
