They are meant for us: they can be meant for no other.” It appeared that Henry had a lot of impact on the colonist with his speech. To some, their initial reaction was that Patrick Henry had gone too far. Many saw Henry as a radical when it comes to patriotism, thus a lot of the delegates believe that armed resistance is not necessary. Yet others said that they will continue to hope for peace and made the suggestion that America’s friends in the Parliament could eventually reverse the policies. He made the point that if they are not strong today when

Although the overall tone of the essay illustrates Hockenberry’s implied thesis that Hockenberry accepts, and even admires, the work of milbloggers, he also identifies a few downfalls of the ability to post in real-time without the direct ability of the Pentagon and Commanding Officers of units to control it. In a few circumstances, casualty information was given out, which violates privacy rules set in place for families of the injured or deceased, as it could upset next of kin. However, steps are being implemented to better control jeopardizing operational security rules. The
Therefore the source suggests that Henry’s inability to enforce the ‘newly-imposed head tax’ contributed not only to a lack of funds for wars with France, but also his failure to combat the tax boycott ‘gave [James IV] hope of undertaking something’. Source 2 confirms what is being said in source 1 as it demonstrates that the threat was real, accounting how James did actually invade, taking advantage of Henry's absence, which confirms the suspicions of the Privy Council in source 1. Source 1 also implies that Henry may have had to abandon any plans made to invade France due to the possible Scottish invasion, 'against King Henry in his absence'. Yet the situation was double edged sword; if Henry chose to ignore the potential threat of a Scottish invasion and stayed to campaign in France, he risked the former actually coming true. If however, he decided to return to England in order to discourage James IV from attacking, he would lose progress in France.
He disagrees with parliament stating that the King must ask permission from them to collect money at his own accord, he says they are “utterly mistaken to suppose that the monarch cannot raise taxes from his subjects at his own pleasure”. At this time it was likely that ship money would be a cause for dispute as it was being collected illegally during peace time and from inland countries which was not part of the original guidelines set out by which ship money could be collected. Also during this period, five out of twelve of the Kings own Judges agreed with and backed Hampden in his refusal to pay ship money. This is a useful source as it gives the royalist perspective on the Kings actions but also shows what the people who were against the King’s actions were doing to rebel, all in all agreeing that financial grievances were the main reason for opposition. Although Berkeley was very one sided in his argument, he gives across both perspectives of the time.
Regardless, it appears as if Harry Truman used Machiavelli’s idea that an initial intense trauma would quickly end any type of rebellion; in Truman’s case, the Japanese. Also, alternatives to end the war were not actively pursued by Truman, which show his somewhat impatience to end the war. Truman ultimately turned out to lead with a heavy fist, perhaps even consequentialist because of the gravity of the decision to actually use such a powerful weapon. Although Machiavelli makes it clear in The Prince that it is important for a ruler to be loved and considered clement by his people, Machiavelli made it even clearer that is more important for a ruler to be feared than loved. In chapter VIII of The Prince, Machiavelli wrote that it, “is much safer to be feared than loved”, thus making dropping the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki a perfect example of this Diego Regin 2 ideal(Machiavelli Ch.
He is protesting against the loyalists who want to stay loyal to Britain and not be free. He says in his writing “Your future connection with Britain, whom you can neither love nor honor, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a relapse more wretched than the first.” He is urging the people who want to stay loyal to think about it.
For henry this was a personal desire which meant when Wolsey failed to achieve it, it led Henry to question his capability and power. By 1525, Catherine of Aragon was unable to bear another child thus crushing Henrys aim of keeping the Tudor line of succession through a male heir. The king also became infatuated with Anne Boleyn who resisted his gifts and kind charm, however the more she resisted the more infatuated the king became; increasing his desire for the divorce even more. With Wolsey being Cardinal, Henry presumed the divorce would be very simple due to the marriage of him and Catherine being incestuous under biblical declarations. However with Charles keeping the pope prisoner and the relations between Charles and Catherine, he declined the divorce on behalf of the pope.
Patrick Henry was a colonist who believed there was a time for peace and a time for action. He was speaking from frustration at over a decade of opposition and oppression from the British. He believed he should not keep his strong opinions to himself, even at the danger of offending others, because it would be just like treason to let the colony remain under the this control. He delivered his speech because he believed there were many colonists who were not prepared to join the revolution. Patrick Henry gave his speech with the purpose of persuading the colonists to stand up and fight against the British.
At the same time it had become apparent to Norfolk that Henry would judge him by the way he put down the rebellion. Norfolk had feared that Henry had believed that he was sympathetic to the rebel demands and that now he needed to show above all else his loyalty to the king. Norfolk used a rebellion in Cumberland (February 1537) as the reason for his campaign even though the pilgrims had condemned what had happened in
