Osirak
For 1981, I propose we make it the following:


 * 1981 - Operation Opera: The Israeli Air Force attacked and disabled Iraq's Osirak nuclear reactor.

It was merely disabled by Israel; the United States destroyed it in the first Gulf War. --Kitch 23:05, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Treaty of Tordesillas
Please see here for a comment on the wording of the "Treaty of Tordesillas" entry, specifically regarding the description of territories inhabited by non-Europeans as "newly discovered" without any additional clarification. Thank you, -- Black Falcon (talk) 18:00, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
