November 2012 was dominated by the re-election of Barack Obama for a second term as U.S. President on the 6th, defeating Republican challenger Mitt Romney. The election underscored deep political divisions but secured Obama's legacy, including the Affordable Care Act. Internationally, the month saw a significant escalation in the Israeli-Gaza conflict. On the 14th, Israel launched Operation Pillar of Defense with the assassination of Hamas military chief Ahmed Jabari, leading to eight days of intense conflict before a fragile Egyptian-brokered ceasefire took hold on the 21st. Beyond politics and conflict, Hurricane Sandy's aftermath continued to define the month's start, with massive recovery efforts along the U.S. Northeast coast. In tech and culture, the much-anticipated release of the video game Call of Duty: Black Ops II on the 13th broke sales records. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom celebrated the 65th wedding anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip on the 20th, a rare milestone for the monarchy. These events, from the seismic U.S. vote to deadly conflict and remarkable resilience, made November 2012 a historically dense and consequential period. |
