Former Israeli president Shimon Peres died on September 28 at the age of 93. He was buried in Jerusalem after a touching ceremonial. The memory of the great politician, considered one of the founders of the State of Israel, was praised for his children, but also by politicians who knew him.

President Barack Obama delivered a touching message about the man who tried to bring peace to the Middle East.

In his long political and military career, Shimon Peres was a man of peace and he was also the father of the country’s nuclear program.

The death of the King of Thailand, a national tragedy

He died in October. King Bhumibol of Thailand ruled the country for over 70 years, the longest reign sovereign in the world.

Traditionally, the king is considered almost a deity in Thailand and is prohibited by law that he or his family be criticized. In the past six years, the Thai sovereign was hospitalized several times in various medical facilities.

The disappearance of “El Lider Maximo”

In contrast, one of the greatest enemies of the United States was Fidel Castro.

The former Cuban president died on November 25, 10 years since he gave up the position of supreme leader of the communist state in Central America. His disappearance was announced by 21 cannon salvos at Havana.

Almost equally affected were tourists who were in Cuba during Fidel Castro’s death.

The reason, however, was slightly different: because of the national mourning, the sale of alcohol was prohibited.
