Otto Von Bismarck War With France
906 wordsThe nation did not recognize her savior, would, in fact, willingly have crucified him or burned him alive. He had saved the country as he once saved a groom from drowning, by gripping it by the throat. When he had won and the work was practically over, then they cheered and lauded him to the skies. But what was the value of such belated converts? From the vast majority of the nation there never came a spark of understanding for the statesman who gave them what they wanted but had been incapable ...

Trade Union Movement Labor Union
1,508 wordsEver since the fall of 1930 when the Spanish Revolution began there has been no surcease of the struggle in Spain.

The issue before Spain is either Communism or Fascism. The matter is being fought out not with ballots but with bullets and ruthless civil war. Slowly the political revolution is being definitively turned int...

George W Bush Saddam Hussein
1,682 wordsThis essay is in defense of the current Iraqi War. President Bush's vocal critics state that over 1, 400 American troops have been sacrificed in the Iraq War.

Gun Laws Internal Revenue
1,428 wordsThis question can be easily answered with a resounding no. No gun background check, weapon ban, or gun buyback will ever prevent weapons from getting into the hands of criminals. Even with the hundreds if not thousands of gun laws already on the books, gun crime is still prevalent in our society. Why? Simple, all you have to do is look at our lax laws regarding punishment for criminals. Prison should be hard work, not sitting in a cell working out and eating well. Criminals should be forced to w...
