It's an old Subject. but was his death for the lesser Evil for Historys' sake?

Where would America be today had he Lived?
Vietnam was a failer ( He started it).

Just before he died he punked Russia.

His own death was a sign of stubborness.

He was warned not to go to Dallas.

Maybe his legacy would have been a desaster and left the country in shambles.

What do you speculate?

We certify to you that, with the help of God, we shall powerfully enter into your country and shall make war against you in all ways and manners that we can, and shall subject you to the yoke and obedience of the Church and of Their Highnesses. We shall take you and your wives and your children, and shall make slaves of them, and as such shall sell and dispose of them as Their Highnesses may command. And we shall take your goods, and shall do you all the mischief and damage that we can, as to vassals who do not obey and refuse to receive their lord and resist and contradict him."

Were Jews in any sense originally Palestinians who didn't convert after the spread of Islam? Or are the two peoples fundamentally separate?

Or were they a disgraceful shambles of simpering giggling teens. I was stunned to see who was operating naval defense,
this was a major success for Iran.

Hello, i was brought up in a very small German village. My parents homeschooled me and taught me that Adolf Hitler was the greatest man to ever live. But since i have gotten onto the internet i am seeing bad things written about him, and it is upsetting to me, why are these bad things being written about him?

I have a perfect Solution to the Kashmir Conflict:

According to the Pakistani government and citizenry, Pakistan has a rightful and just claim to Kashmir because the majority of the people in Kashmir are Muslims, right???

Well, the Pakistani government is forgetting that India has the world's second largest Muslim population (although they comprise only 12% of the Indian population - 83% being hindu). I think there are approximately 150 million Muslims who constitute India's Muslim minority.

My solution is this:
We can say to Pakistan that we will ONLY relinquish control of Kashmir to yourselves, IF YOU TAKE ALL INDIA'S MUSLIMS, ALONG WITH KASHMIR AND GRANT THEM CITIZENSHIP OF PAKISTAN!!!

I don't mean to sound heartless and I apologise if I have caused any offence. But the purpose of 1947 partition was so that India can become a Muslim free zone.

Do you agree with me??? Ain't I right??? Pakistan should open its borders to India's Muslims and only then get kashmir?

The standard answer refers to, Amerigo Vespucci.

However the name has also been attributed to:

Norsemen sailing to the land Leif had discovered; supported with claims claim that from the beginning of the 11th century, North Atlantic sailors called this place Ommerike (oh-MEH-ric-eh), an Old Norse word meaning "farthest outland."

The name AMERICA or AMERRIQUE in the Mayan language means, a country of perpetually strong wind, or the Land of the Wind, and sometimes the suffix '-ique' and '-ika' can mean not only wind or air but also a spirit that breathes, life itself.

These can be found at: http://www.uhmc.sunysb.edu/surgery/america.html

In defense of the Amerigo Vespuccii theory, http://www.sunysb.edu/libmap/coordinates/seriesb/no4/b4.htm

Waldseemüller and his colleagues recognized Columbus's previous voyages of exploration and discovery, however, honored Amerigo Vespuccii because of his 'purported' four voyages and recognition of a new continent .

Comments Please?

Most will say Gettysburg because of the ghost stories. I've visited some of them and so far Antietam has been the most interesting. I'd like to work my way further south tho.

Has anyone ever thought there is a double standard on people invading countries on England. I am not talking about a long time ago I am talking recent history. England has controled The Fiji Islands, India, and Hong Kong just to name a few. I wonder if another country that was not the greatest ally to the U.S. did the same thing if there would be a war over it?

I'm writing a paper, just curious if any specific rituals, no matter what they might have been, could have occurred before a battle... I know the Romans were incredibly god-fearing and I really want to play off of that in my paper (I'm writing on the two battles at Philippi). Anyone have any answers, or pointers on where I should start looking?
