Canadian Paul 97 Posted June 24, 2006 According to Wikipedia, he no longer recognizes visitors. I won't link since I couldn't find any English sources, but if anyone here reads Hebrew, supposedly the report on this guy's site backs it up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

simfish 0 Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yitzhak_Shamir It doesn't look so auspicious for him. He might outlive this year, but I think he's a good candidate for next year. Anyone heard anything else about him? Also, does anyone know of all of the possible Death Lists that I could participate in?

Banshees Scream 110 Posted November 12, 2006 Yitzhak Shamir has really outlived his expectations. The lower spots of Deathlist 2007 should welcome him warmly in open arms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GracieJc8 3 Posted August 11, 2007 Based upon the Wikipedia entry if Shamir was nursing home material back in 2004, he should be a better than average candidate for a DL success in 2007. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest_dave_* Posted January 29, 2008 Yitzhak Shamir dead according to this article Can't find any other source...no other news outlets. is it possible he might have died last year and nobody bothered to mention it?I mean he hasnt been around for a very long time and it might have been a heavy news agenda that day. Could we have had a hit last year and not even known about it?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 29, 2008 Yitzhak Shamir dead according to this article I'm guessing that it's a draft obituary that got leaked, sort of like what happened with CNN. Note that the article gives no date of death, no circumstances, the photo is broken and some of the key news lines, like the secondary heading, are merely garbage like ",hk,". Someone probably posted it last year (hence why it lists him as 91 rather than 92) to see what it would look like when posted online, then forgot to take it down. So there, we've looked into it.

Also the article is dated for June last year, there has been nothing to confirm that article in the meantime This is all very mysterious.We're going to have to look into this.It look like a credible source to me. A quick search of the major Middle East-focused media seems to suggest he's still alive, if not well. When it does happen, here's what we can expect to read. It's most likely that a prepared obit. was posted by mistake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tomb raider 9 Posted November 15, 2009 Anyone got any news on Yitzhak? Are the batteries still running? Let's say it that way: Eliahu Speiser: Dead Emanuel Zisman: Dead Naftali Feder: Dead Yitzhak Shamir: Alive Unless they all died of the Mexican flu - and coughed up some sputum over Shamir before they did - I don't think these cases are connected or in one way or another leading to Yitzhak's imminent death... A whole bunch of Knesset-cronies dying within a week is noteworthy, though... They were not all that ancient, were they? If it's a curse, we should consider Sharon and Shamir for re-election on the DL 2010. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
