Hvad der skete den 16. juli forskellige år:

622 - Beginning of the Islamic calendar. Prophet Mohammed begins his Hijra from
Mecca to Medina.

1918 - Russian Revolution: At Ekaterinburg, Bolsheviks execute Czar Nicholas II
of Russia and his family.

1942 - Holocaust: The Vichy France government headed by Pierre Laval orders
French police officers to round up 13,000-20,000 Jews and imprison them in the
Winter Velodrome.

1979 - Iraqi President Hasan al-Bakr resigns and is replaced by Saddam Hussein.

Med andre ord må den 16. juli være en festdag for kommunister og islam-
tilhængere.

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-whits to point out that
the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit and the emperor
remains an emperor. - Neil Gaiman: Sandman: The Kindly Ones
