Clemenceau resented Wilson’s generous attitude towards Germany and Lloyd George’s desire to not treat Germany too harshly. He said “if they British are so anxious to appease Germany they should look overseas and make colonial, naval or commercial concessions”. These disagreements left the big three unsatisfied and ultimately left them with a weak mere shadow of a perhaps great treaty due to their own arrogance and. It contained many faults and weaknesses. The treaty of Versailles greatly humiliated Germany forcing it to accept soul responsibility for the war.
Collective security had a better response towards aggression rather than appeasement. This is because a lot more European countries didn’t approve of the decision made during the Munich Conference. Winston Churchill was one person who strong didn’t approve with this decision. He was a British politician who thought, “keeping peace depends on holding back the aggressor” (Document 6). Churchill believed that in order to guarantee the security of Czechoslovakia, Europe should have held Germany back and Britain and France should have worked together as an alliance.
This is done just to create an impression that the world is against Iraq. However one should consider the validity of presenting such a support. Firstly, where the writer says, “some people…” it is a use of fallacy (false authority). Moreover he does not give proper understandable reasons of why is it appropriate to take over Kuwait; rather he merely states the population which agrees to the writer’s idea. One needs to know the rationale behind that agreement.
Aldrich's poem may strike modern readers as embarrassingly xenophobic, if not downright racist. But "Unguarded Gates" represents a strain of American thought on immigration with roots every bit as deep as the open-door ideals of "The New Colossus." 4. What are some examples of nativist thought in America prior to 1882? Benjamin Franklin worried that heavy German immigration into Pennsylvania would leave the English
Isolationism refers to America's longstanding reluctance to become involved in European alliances and wars. Isolationists held the view that America's perspective on the world was different from that of European societies and that America could advance the cause of freedom and democracy by means other than war. American isolationism did not mean disengagement from the world stage. Isolationists were not opposed to the idea that the United States should be a world player and even further its territorial, ideological and economic interests, particularly in the Western Hemisphere. However, as America gained significant power during the preceding years, the U.S underwent a period of isolationism, in oppose to imperialism, to protect their territorial gains.
Nonetheless, Manela felt that this was not the case because he said there was another significant incident that deserves to be looked at too. It was about the colonized countries that wanted to challenge the status quo. Similarly, he argued that historians before him looked at the anti-colonial struggles individually but he would now look at them as a whole because he said that it was all international anti-colonialism. In addition, he stated that historian before him did not centralized President Woodrow Wilson as a catalyst for anti-colonial nationalists across the world but he felt that Wilson was very vital in helping colonized people create the idea of self-determination. After WWI ended and world major empires like the Austo-Hungarian and the Ottoman empires collapsed, the U.S. emerged from WWI as more powerful, economically, militarily and politically.
The eventual collapse of the weimar Republic was brought upon by many factors and even though there is much disagreement among historians about the eventuall trigger, there is a general consencous on the factors leading to the downfall of German democracy. One of the views carried by historians is the Determinist view which basically states that the conditions under which the Republic was created far too extreme and the structure of the republic was serverely weakened, so much so that its downfall was inevitable. The other view was the Alternate view which while acknowledging the structual weaknesses of the Republic, states that the republic had the ability and reselience to recover, but instead lacked sufficient political leadership and a lack of determination to see through their troubles. One of the triggers of the collapse of the weiman republic was article 48 of the German constitution, which granted the president with emergency powers which allowed him to assume full control of the country. This trigger is held highly among determinist historians as one of the reasons the republic was doomed to fail from the start.
Another example of the United States failing to civil liberties was that they would mistreat the German Americans. Attorney Generals would carry out raids on German Americans with little real evidence of wrong doing. They would do this To the German Americans just because they were at war with the Germans.

They also changed their documented history in order to seem that the German Knights had wanted a Third Reich. Also the Nazis created propaganda that made other races look bad, and practically influenced thei people that others were inferior. All this can be compared to Orwell's
These arguments will focus largely on the United States of America, as it has been pivotal to the importance of national security in the modern world. Ultimately, this essay will argue that the need for national security outweighs the right to individual liberties in liberal democracies, and that the liberal theories examined do not adequately allow for matters of state importance. Before an analysis of liberty in democracies can begin it is
