... same reason we must look out for all to be at peace with all. To the few people who deny the occurance of the Holocaust and rather call it the Hocsacaust. The Holocaust just means exactly what is in the dictionary, "great or total destruction especially by fire." And by no means is the genocide of European Jews, and other groups by the Nazi Germany during WWII. To me the Holocaust means the most current gigantic thing to happen to a group of people. In my opinion, not the last either. To those of you who say that there is no way this is going to happen again, I laugh at you. It is a fact that there is a religous war going on right now in the middle east, a ...
... nor omniscient. In other words, he wasn't all-powerful or all seeing. He could be, and in fact was, opposed, deceived and tricked by gods and men alike. His power, although great, was not boundless; had no control over The Fates and Destiny.

... flood-swollen Chickahominy River, and sent General Joseph Johnston to attack the force lying south of the river. This became known as the Battle of Seven Pines, a confused and bloody affair in which Johnston was severely wounded. Lee was given command of the army and began shuffling troops around in front of McClellan to convince him that he was faced with an enormous force. Lee then moved across the river and attacked the Union forces there; these fell back so that Lee could attack the southern half on its flank, and this, in turn, fell back. Lee continued in this manner, pushing one flank and then the other, McClellan backing away before him, and only the relative ...
... Kansas- Nebraska Act was the result of Douglas wanting to build railroads from Chicago to San Franciso. Douglas was a big believer in popular sovereignity, where the people have the right to decide if they want to be free of slave state, and he completely ignore the Missoure Compromise. The Compromise of 1850 stated that should be equal number of free and slave states. The Missouri Compromise said that any state above the latitude of 36 30' can not be a slave state. "Bleeding Kansas" was where people were fighting over the issue of slavery and cost many American Lives. The California Gold Rust occurred when gold was discovered in California and people rushed o ...
... B. Johnson of Texas, against Republican Vice President Richard M. Nixon. The debates between Nixon and Kennedy were televised. Burner believes that "Nixon's biggest error turned out to be agreeing to this series of four debates" (Burner 53). Nixon appeared dull and unattractive, while Kennedy performed with maturity and style. He pledged to "get the country moving again" with his New Frontier policy (Kennedy et al 597). Kennedy won by a narrow margin and became the youngest president elected to office, as well as the first Roman Catholic accomplishments was the formation of the Peace Corps, which sent young American volunteers abroad to help less developed nat ...
... questions truthfully, what happened to completely? How many questions did you leave unanswered? How many more lies will Kenneth Starr’s investigation uncover? Where was the term "I lied" in your speech? You admitted nothing. You went before the people and gave a pitiful speech so that it can be spun as a heart-felt admission of guilt in front of the American people. It is to be hoped that most people will be able to see through this obvious facade and see the truth. Not once did you use the term "sexual relationship" when referring to your interactions with Ms. Lewinsky. You admitted to an inappropriate and wrong relationship, but what was the natur ...

... of why they wanted this was because of king Louis XIV's actions. At the end of the seventeenth century, King Louis XIV's wars began decreasing the royal finances dramatically. This worsened during the eighteenth century. The use of the money by Louis XIV angered the people and they wanted a new system of government. The writings of the philosophes such as Voltaire and Diderot, were critical of the government. They said that not one official in power was corrupt, but that the whole system of government needed some change. Eventually, when the royal finances were expended in the 1780's, there began a time of greater criticism. This sparked the peasants no ...
... of aliens, whether it be pictures from space, to crashes on earth, to a low or nonexistent level. Just recently has the government been harassed to the point where they actually gave us clues to alien existence. It has in some ways been believed that the government has worked in partnership with popular movie directors, to produce alien movies to ease the thought that we may not be alone. Such movies as ôThe Arrivalö and the ever popular ôIndependence Dayö are very good examples of well convincing alien movies. If this is true, they did a good job, because statistics state that 75% of people today believe that there is some kind of intellige ...

One thousand Jews survived the Holocaust because of him. Nowadays, there are approximately 6000 descendants of those Jews. They remember Schindler as their father to whom they owe their lives. Schindler will be always remembered as a good person that realized that life has no sense when we only get. He also re ...
