writer, Deborah Lipstadt, as a reference since she authored a very important book on the issue of Holocaust (Page, 38). Further, Tannen combines her own experiences with those of her colleague so as to prove her position this delicate issue. For example, Tannen points out that Lipstadt turned down an invitation to a television show as she did not want to enter into an argument regarding the Holocaust. This example complements Tannins position that

In my viewpoint, I consider humans killing other humans is a obviously feature of war, the occur of every war, holocaust, genocide, massacre because of the wealth and authority, less part of the reason are the race, religion, nationality or gender, which I will treat them as an excuse to the outbreak of war and want to make it to reasonable and the leadership’s wrong
According to the text the job of the introductory speaker is to foster mutual interest between the main speaker and the audience. Instead, I think that Mr. Bollinger’s introduction was polarizing. I feel that what Mr. Bollinger delivered was a six minute diatribe. He attacked Mr. Ahmadinejad politically and with such gusto that there was a distinct possibility that he turn off the audience from Mr. Ahmadinejad’s speech. I feel that Mr. Bollinger was rude and did not show any respect for Mr. Ahmadinejad
reference to important historic events such as the Holocaust and the Civil Rights Movement. Not only have I heard this phrase in history classes, but also in my own personal life from people like my mother. As many times as I have heard this quote, in its many variations, it always has the same message behind it, learn from the mistakes of the past and do everything possible to make sure that they don't happen again.

Ordinary People by Judith Guest. These books not only left me speechless, but they also shaped me in some way into the person who I am. Starting in eighth grade, I came across to the book, The Boy In the Striped Pajamas, and it powerfully drove my interest for reading, and also developing a sense of sympathy to others. Along with that book, Ordinary People had a similar impact; It taught me to understand that struggles are part of life, and that there are others who might have similar experiences as
inevitable event of our lives—Death. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is an emotional story about a young girl named Liesel Meminger living in Nazi Germany. This young adult novel features Liesel’s coming of age and her perspective of World War II/Holocaust Germany, as narrated by Death. A novel narrated by Death? Surprisingly, that’s the least of the surprises. Interestingly enough, the narrator of this novel is Death, and he narrorates Liesel Meminger’s story through her diary. It’s a fascinating

This question is exploring how removing consequences can result in malicious behavior from individuals. This research question is worthy of studying because behavior and the questioning behind the actions that individuals commit can be answered. There is always controversy among those who decide to act a certain way due to their position and others do not understand that it’s all a psychological process
“Yes, life always takes the side of life, and somehow the victims are blamed. But it wasn’t the best people who survived, nor did the best ones die. It was random!” (Spiegelmen, 1991). This quote reminds us that if someone died, it is not because they deserved it or because other people are more deserving to live; it does not happen by choice. However, once it is effectuate, this can cause certain people who were either involved in the tragedy or were witnesses to undergo a feeling of guilt, known
It is impossible for Herlanders, such as Ellador, to accept the theory of German Nazi about holocaust as justified and beneficial, not only because of its severe and immoral damage upon the world population, but also such ideology suggests the lack of human self-awareness within the world of nature. The variations among humanity, in Ellador’s opinion
governments and religions to have over our own personal thoughts and beliefs, and this conveys the seriousness of the problem of any area of social power having too much power.
