Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vladimir Lenin was not successfully assassinated, though two attempts were made on his life, both in 1918. He died in 1924 after a series of three strokes; the lingering damage from the assassination attempts is believed to have indirectly contributed to his death. His ability to twice elude assassination contributed to his mythic status among the Russian people. Trotsky, a Russian Marxist leader was killed in exile in 1940. Bhutto, the first female prime minister of an Islamic nation (Pakistan), was the targeted casualty in a 2007 suicide bombing. Sadat, the President of Egypt from 1970 to1981 and a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, was assassinated in a rare multi-assassin attack during a parade in Cairo in '81.
