It happened a November 8th

Just found something WOW on my favorite daily website http://www.collectifvan.org/ : the éphéméride of the November 8th days through history. I guess it can be done for each day, but this list is quite interesting

2000 : in France, Sénat vote the law recognizing the Armenian genocide after Assemblée Nationale
2002 : UN’s resolution urging Saddam Hussein for Irak’s disarmament
1977 : Israel bombarding Palestinian camp in South Liban
1923 : in Germany, Hitler’s Munich putsh failed
Not to mention of course, the election of the democrats JFKennedy in 1960, and FD Roosevelt in 1932

So much of all those points have echoes today… History gives giddiness !
