Why is it that what's written in textbooks is taken as fact?
So much of what i learned in H.S has been dismissed as complete lies, and or huge omissions of the truth.
If the truth is known, why are our children still being taught lies?

I'm writing a paper on Civil War, and I need an introduction... I really don't know what to say. I have to have 4 "chapters". This is how I organized it:
1. Introduction
2. Causes and Background of the War
3. The War
4. Results of the War.
I wrote everything except for the intro... I need just a couple of sentences...

Everyone knows how to use wiki, if they wanted to find an answer there they could search for it themselves.

What I like to see is your OWN answer. If you dont know the answer then dont bother trying to answer the question. Copying material from wikipedia is hardly a great feat.

Maybe people should not get points if they simply copy stuff from wikipedia.

What do you think?

The Japanese had every advantage. There was no logical reason why the U.S. should have won. If you study the battle, there were just a very few small actions--a Japanese reconnaisance plane's radio malfunction, a chance sighting by a U.S. dive bomber squadron while flying far off-course, catapult problems on the Japanese carrier Hiryu--that made the difference.

The battle occured within six months of the turning points at Stalingrad and El Alamein. It's hard to think of God siding with Stalin over Hitler, but it was undeniably that very short period of time that turned the tide of the war for the Allies.

Did it happen for a reason?

I've read that the North and the South during the Civil war called battles by different names. What was the battle at Antietam called by the South?

agents delivered the body to a furious Stalin who put it in a chair and proceded to lambaste the thing(at the top of his lungs) for hours before having it buried?

Is there any truth to this? Whether there is or not, if you read the same thing, where did you read it?
