The Gaze | Target Number One: Top 5 Assassination Attempts on Heads of State @TheGazeDigitalPlatform | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
Political games, intrigues, conspiracies, and contract killings are an inseparable part of human history. Since the emergence of the institution of statehood, assassination attempts on high-ranking officials – princes, kings, military dictators, presidents, and prime ministers – have occurred with enviable regularity. If one were to compile all the cases of political assassinations into a single encyclopaedia, it would result in an endless "Game of Thrones" spanning centuries, where determining the victor is challenging, but evaluating the consequences is not. Take, for example, the aftermath of the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand on the eve of World War I. Today, with the efforts of the "Axis of Evil" participants – Russia, China, Iran, and their numerous allies – any point on the globe could ignite, and assassination attempts on heads of state could play the role of those very "black swans" Nassim Taleb once wrote about and warned against.
