[edit] When did Allon act as PM?

According to Wikipedia, Allon became interim PM in 1968 "following the death of Prime Minister Levi Eshkol in 1969". I wasn't yet born but I have a strong suspicion that 1969 actually followed 1968. Was Eshkol effectively incapacitated but still officially in office when Allon took over, or is there another explanation? In any case, the article is awkward and requires clarification.

According to the Israeli PM's official site "On 26.2.69, Prime Minister Levi Eshkol passed away, and the Government ended its tenure. It served as a transitional Government for 41 days." This seems to imply Allon was interim PM from February 26 to March 17, 1969.S.Camus 20:22, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Yigal alon.jpg

Image:Yigal alon.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
