After Paris: What Needs to Be Changed?

President Obama, speaking from Turkey Monday claimed: "What's been interesting is, in the aftermath of Paris, as listened to those who suggest something-else-needs-to-be-done, typically, the things they suggest-need-to-be-done are things we're already doing.

PISTOL OWNED BY CHURCHILL DURING WORLD WAR 2 FOR SALE AT BONHAMS

Sir Winston Churchill’s 7.65 mm Webley & Scott pistol, part of his gun collection, is estimated to sell for £2,000 to £3,000 at Bonhams next Sporting Guns Sale on 2nd December in Knightsbridge.

This pistol was one of a number of firearms owned by Churchill while serving as Prime Minister during the war.

Patrick Hawes, Head of Sporting Guns Department at Bonhams says: “This weapon is a remarkable link to Churchill’s war years.”

It is believed that there were some 20 failed attempts to assassinate Churchill during the war, including a bizarre exploding chocolate bar.

One of the alleged attempts against his life is known as ‘Operation Long Jump’ (Unternehmen Weitsprung). This was a plan to simultaneously assassinate Joseph Stalin, Franklin Roosevelt and Churchill at the 1943 Teheran Conference during World War 2. The operation to kill the ‘big three’ was led by the SS. The plot was uncovered by the Soviets and the mission was never launched.

In addition, despite confirming that the information shared by legal professionals is often highly sensitive, the majority of respondents also admitted that they have sent documents or information to the wrong recipient in the past.
