History - July 2006

I think, Rome. Too bad Carthage lost the Punic Wars, and too bad the Visigoths didn't do to Rome what Rome did to Carthage.

I have seen a photograph of killed (german) campguards in Sachsenhausen once in a book. I don't have the book anymore, but this event is not much spoken about in other publications. I'm curious if it is true and if the soldiers involved (officers?) where punished, although i can imagine the rage of the Americans when arriving in the camp and witness the attrocities. Did surviving inmates point out the worst guards, or how did the selection take place?

I have bought an Iron Cross 2nd class medal but the suspension is broken off. I don't mind if it's only a reproduction, but if it's original, then I would love it.

Does anyone else know about this?
How come the idea that they weren't has persisted? We call them Egyptians, when they called themselves Kemuts, or Black people. Growing up, when I thought of Egyptians, I never thought of black people. It took a black history class to change this idea!
Don't believe me? Take a look at some of the theories...

I have read that in some Muslim countries a theft is punishable by the loss of the perpertrators hands. In the United States, under a "three strikes your our law", there is a shoplifter in California serving life in prison. Think about it which would you take?

Lets not just say the country that we are a part of. Im still thinking over this one, but i can say for sure it wasnt America. In terms of sacrafice the Russians did well, and the British held off the Germans amazingly, not to mention the beggining of the SAS........

I say, let him place himself in my situation, without home or friends,without money or credit, wanting shelter, and no one to give it,wanting bread, and no money to buy it, and at the same time let him feel that he is pursued by merciless men-hunters, and in total darkness as to what to do,where to go,or where to stay, perfectly helpless both as to the means of defence and means of escape,in the midst of plenty, yet suffering the terrible gnawings of hunger, in the midst of houses, yet having no home, among fellow-men, yet feeling as if in the midst of wild beasts, whose greediness to swallow up the trembling and half-famished fugitive is only equalled by that with which the monsters of the deep swallow up the helpless fish upon which they subsist, I say, let him be placed in this most trying situation, the situation in which I was placed, then, and not till then, will he fully appreciate the hardships of, and know how to sympathize with, the toil-worn and whip-scarred fugitive slave.
