...R.I.P. Eli Wallach
Eli Wallach, the raspy-voiced character actor who starred in dozens of movies and Broadway plays over a remarkable and enduring career and earned film immortality as a conniving, quick-on-the-draw bandit in the classic Western “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,” has died. He was 98.

...Controlling The Populace
No public gathering other than those organised by ISIS will be allowed at any stage. No guns will be allowed outside of its ranks.
By depriving Iraqi citizens the equivalent of our first and second amendment rights, the people have almost no way to legally petition the government for a redress of grievances. Thus, those in power have total control.
