... freedom around the world. He stated: “Let every nation know, whether it wish us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend or oppose any foe in order to assure the survival and success of liberty. This we pledge and more.” Soon Kennedy’s speech would be put to the test. The debate over communism or democracy was still going on. The Cold War had not yet ended.

Abortion
... the psychological and social problems associated having an unwanted child. Being pro-choice myself, I believe that it is the woman's right to decide if she wants to have a child or not. Some women who become pregnant are not mentally, physically, or financially stable enough to raise a child. If this is the case, I believe that a child should not be brought into the world because it will then have an unhealthy life style. If a woman becomes pregnant from rape or incest then it should be okay for her to have an . For whatever reason, if a woman decides to have an , then it should be her choice, no one else's. is s ...

With the number of "nuclear states" rising, the question has arisen, what can the nations of the world do to stop the nuclear arms race? Enter . If the nations of the world do not sign and ratify this treaty the world could experience a much-feared nuclear holocaust, on the other hand t ...

Capital Punishment
... from blasphemy and treason to petty theft and murder. Many ancient societies accepted the idea that certain crimes deserved . Ancient Roman and Mosaic Law endorsed the notion of retaliation; they believed in the rule of "an eye for an eye." Similarly, the ancient Egyptians, Assyrians, and Greeks all executed citizens for a variety of crimes. The most famous people to be executed are Socrates and Jesus.

Juvenile Delinquency
... will not have a chance at becoming successful parents and worse, yet, many parents today are already contributing to the ever increasing problem of simply by not knowing how to be parents.

The US Government
... From this political
position, he moved higher up in the ranks and in 1978 won the election for

What Role Should The U.S. Play In World Defense?
... under the Clinton Administration
has spent about $1.7 billion dollars in foreign aid. This amount of course,
can be debated by the government, who has probably spent much more then
they want us to know. This fact alone is scary, since only last year, the
Defense Department, under the Freedom of Information Act was forced to tell
the American people how much money it spent on the protection of our
country since last year alone. The amount? A whopping $4 billion dollars.
Since we won our independence from Great Britain in 1776, we as a
nation have been involved in 5 major wars since the turn of the century,

attention. Now that de Valera's and Collins' personalities have been
established, we can now analyze the events and actual conditions under which
Ireland was under that led ultimately to her freedom.
All across Ireland people were repulsed by the executions which they
considered to be needlessly brutal. What they lacked was new leadership to
focus the restless energy of the Irish into effective politic ...

Adolf Hitler

To fullfil his dream he had moved to Vienna the capital of Austria where the Academy of arts was located. He failed the first time he tried to get admission and in the next year, 1907 he tried again and was very sure of success. To his surprise he failed again.
