An attention getter for world war 2?
The main reason for WWII was because of genocide, but there is genecide everywhere, past, present and future. now to connect it, talk about the civil war and genecide against African amercians and maybe rawanda, because its genecide agaisnt another tribe. with this, have a transition to go into your thesis.
Why did some people not participate in the Holocaust?
They didn't want to participate. The Holocaust was the mass genecide of some 6 million Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, and other "undesired people". What's amazing is the number of people who DID participate.
What is the movement of Sudan Africa?
latley (august the 1st) America has sent 2.1 billion dollars of funds towards protecting Sudan (check the herald for more), the funds will go toward arms in helping stop the rebels from genecide of their own people. I'm not going to delete the above but we have been talking about this and I don't believe that the rebels are trying to destroy their own culture. That what the basic definition of genecide is the destruction of a culture/way of life. No human in their right mind would want to destroy their own way of life, because by doing that they would cease to exist. It is human nature to do anything to survive so this contradicts itself.
Who gets affected by genecide?
Genocide is the extermination of a race of people. An example of this is the Nazis attempt to exterminate the Jewish people in the early 20th Century leading up to WWII.
What did the SS do at Auschwitz?
The ss tortured and starved The Jewish people to death. Hence death camps. It was Genecide is the most horrific sense. they did genetic testing on them. They separated family members to break them down. All the while the Jewish people kept their faith in G-D. So in a basic term they tested their faith and made me appreciated my elders that much more.
What were the horrible experiences of the Jews before?
The Jews had many horrible experiences They were forced out of their homes Their possessions were taken and sold They were put into work camps with horrible living conditions They wern't fed properly The Nazis treated them with no respect and would kill one with a blink of an eye. They had to wear stars wherever they went and were called various names They wern't allow to own a business etc... They were killed in mass amounts (genecide)
Caribbean islands share a common history what is it?
i had to do this question for my homework. took me ages but i think i have the answers. it is something to do with the immigrants coming into the country or whatever and they came to live as laborers and now they are living there. Also that some of the Caribbean Islands' main language is English(i also have this question for homework too, oh and by the way, thanks for the help who ever wrote first, it really helped).
Why did the Allies decide to continue the war in Europe until the Axis powers fully surrendered?
The Allied Forces had to remove Nazi rule and Adolph Hitler from having any rule or influence on any one forever. They were an evil bunch of people. I am being serious here. They practiced genecide, murder, torture, brain washing, used children to fight the war, invaded nations, killed women and children without abandon and did not abide by treaties or peacekeeping values. The Allied Forces wanted democracy returned to Europe and Nazism erased. They managed to do that for the most part.
what social religious factors are given to account for the harsh response to witchcraft?

What role did Franklin Delano Roosevelt prefer the us take in regards to World War 2?
FDR remembered WW1 & knew the people of the US wanted nothing to do with another war to end all wars. The attitude was let the Europeans, learn to live together or let them blow each other up, Europe was an ocean away & the US was insulated by 1200 miles of ocean & didn't need European goods & services to survive.WWII also involved human rights genecide of Jews, blacks, Homosexuals & the mentaly retarded & other minorities. America was still a VERY segregated society, Blacks didnt go to school with whites & in some states a mixed race couple couldn't get a marriage license. So America was not much interested in "Civil or Human rights for people that we opressed at home too.FDR wanted to get the US out of the depression & out of another European war. His "convenient" arrangement was to sell/lease (we knew we would never get paid & didn't) the European allies ( France & England mostly!) guns & ships & war goods which created jobs & helped lift America out of the Depression..When the Germans got really good at sinking American & English ships carrying the war goods across the north Atlantic, America started to understand that Germany might have the ability to bring the war to us. FDR decided that it was better to fight IT on their turf than let them gain the strength to bring the war to us.When Japan saw the commitment & trouble we were having with Germany, they decided it was a good time to jump in & plunder Asia & the pacific. They didn't think we could fight in Europe, Africa, Asia & the Pacific all at once.
Why is ham and cabbage the proper meal for St. Patrick's Day?
Traditional meal is not ham and cabbage but corned beef and cabbage. I do not know how or why but I do know its not ham. probably bacon and cabbage or corned beef - the 17th of mach usually falls during the time of Lent, when eating meat was forbidden. an exception was made for st. patricks day, so people ate any meat available, or any that needed to be used up. I love the "fighting Irish" and I'm partly one myself, so I just have to set the record straight and take out the fantasy of St. Patrick's Day and what it really stands for. Note: Through terrible hardships the Irish remained merry, musical, were extremely close to their families and roots. Their folklore revolved around "the little people" and nature and to this day one is mystically involved in the lore and beauty of Ireland. The Irish wife would take a piece of cured pork and serve cabbage along with soda bread. It was a custom that begun by emigrants who, in longing for their homeland they created this meal to remind them of Ireland. Boiled bacon, served with floury potatoes (baked potatoes)and warm soda bread. Butter was used plentiful with this meal. Most Irish families did not own the land they lived on, but rented. When the British came they were greedy and wanted to buy the land, thus, pushing the Irish off their rented land. Some managed to survive inland, while others lived near the coast on rocky terrain and most starved to death. During the better times in Ireland they ate chicken and pork served with spices. Their main staple was the potato of course, but many don't realize that the Irish did not invent the potato and it was brought over by ships from South America in the 1500s. When Ireland suffered several years of blight on their potato crops, the British in an ignorant attempt (they didn't know much about Ireland) tried to introduce Indian Corn from America, but the British didn't understand that Ireland was poverty stricken and millions had died during the famine and there was no money to build mills for the corn. Here is another interesting note: When America got word of the conditions in Ireland they sent sacks of Indian Corn, etc., over to Ireland, but the sneaky British wanted the ships to dock in England first and they would put a tax on this cargo. America verbally fought the British and eventually the British gave in and allowed the ships to go directly to Ireland. The potato famine of 1848 was the most devastating Irish famine in history. Many of the people were forced to resort to desperate practices known as bleeding. Bleeding was draining some of the cow's blood and mixing it with rotten potatoes and cabbage to make soup. Others would peal bark from trees and boil it or those near the coast would take seaweed and do the same. People were found dead in their homes with bloated stomachs, green tongues from eating grass in attempt to ward off starvation. It was said that the British had a flash of sympathy for the Irish and created the workhouses which were nothing more than a place to go and die. Little money was made and certainly not enough to feed a family. To make a long story short, Britain wanted the best furtile land in Ireland and in history, many feel that Britain created a genecide by starving the people. Queen Victoria visited Ireland during the famine at a high cost back then of $5,000. It would take $1 to feed a large Irish family. (Figure this one out.) She came, she saw and returned with no future help to the Irish. Britain thought by giving the Irish a helping hand it would harm them more than help them as they would get used to asking for a "free handout" and lose their work ethic. The British leader Trevellian said there would be no handouts for the Irish as "we don't want to create a nation of beggars reliant on us for their personal survival." The British created "work programs" and had some Irish breaking rock for roads that lead nowhere. Many of the Irish families would send one adult and a child to (the vast amount going to America) a few to Australia and Canada. Passage was $10/person. 1 in 4 people died in the famine. Parishes held mass funerals. With no money there was a "community coffin." When there was a death the people would use the coffin for the wake and funeral. At the grave site, a trap door would be opened and the corpse would fall into the grave. The coffin would be returned to be used for the next individual. Coffin Ships were used by many Irish families for their passage to America. It was the cheapest way to travel to Haratio Alger's "land of opportunity." Due to the lack of room disease spread quickly often causing the deaths of over half of the passengers. The death toll was so high you could line gravestones across the Atlantic Ocean from one shore to the other. Wakes were created and considered happy occasions because some were able to leave their life of hardship behind, but in return they would rarely see their family members again. To this day the British and Irish are warring along with the religious war in Ireland. In the 1980's my friend Bernadette whose brother was in Ireland had to be sent to live in Canada because he was so badly beaten by the British soldiers at one of the "stop points" along one of the roads. All her brother did, was forget his papers to show the British soldiers and he had to get home. If we look way back in history we will find that Hitler was not the first to use a greedy eye on the world around him and commit a genecide. It's been in almost every country in the world and it's still going on to this day. Responding to previous answer: That bit of info really makes one think. Very powerful and very true statement.
What is Imagine by John Lennon about?
It was about if there wasn't anything separating each one of us (religion, etc.) the world would be a better place. To put it plainly, Imagine is a plea for world peace and Lennon was simply stating the reasons (or problems) that caused the most grief in the world and asked the listener to "Imagine" what it would be like if these things didn't exist.. Greed ("Imagine no possessions"..) Religion ("Imagine there's no heaven" "and no religion too"..) Nationaliasm ("Imagine there's no countries"..) ("Nothing to kill or die for") Also, it's about the central ideas of Communism, not just anti-socialism. For a while, Lennon was pro-communism, and obviously against socialism.
