The people inside the home very well could be just innocent people, living their day to day lives. Intruding in on people’s lives is so irresponsible, unfair, and does not comply with humane conduct while fighting battle. The prisoners’ wives most definitely thought they were going to be tortured or ever worse killed, which is just not fair. Walzer critiques the idea of the naked soldier by explaining that once the opposition is dressed for battle, why is it only then that they are now dangerous? In the sense of Walzer then, the Marines would not have been acting unjust, and that all the insurgents should be killed.
Walter is a Cunningham, so he is inferior and should be treated as such. Scout embraces the racism thrust on her and fails to see any other path.

They don’t know Boo Radley and have never seen him but still judge him on stories they have heard. They are threatened by him, and are scared to go on his property.
Neither side could encircle each other, to entrap each other's armies. * Another factor of why a stalemate occurred on the western front was because both sides stuck to their trenches for protection. Between the two opposing sets of trenches was No Man's Land which any attacking troops had to cross. Both sides used barbed wire for protection of their trenches, troops caught in the wire became easy targets for the enemies. Also, the mud was very thick that men disappeared into it and were never seen again, Corpses lay all around the battlefield and this encouraged rats and lice which caused diseases.
Vonnegut cannot express his feelings on the war and the Dresden firebombing directly because he believes “there is nothing intelligent to say about a massacre” (Vonnegut 19). The conclusion that Vonnegut comes to after examining the causes and effects of Dresden is that there indeed is no moral, only the Poo-tee-weet of the bird call. “Poo-tee-weet” is the only rational thought on a war Vonnegut can find (Vonnegut 215). He cannot explain or even comment on the death and destruction he has seen in Dresden. This strengthens the idea that war can have terrible consequences even on those who survive the war physically and return home as Vonnegut and Billy Pilgrim do.
But in this story the bad guy is the one you pity and want to help out at the end. The story makes you believe that Tub would be the one everyone pity and he was in the beginning, but when he defended himself and shot Kenny it was definitely not like any normal fiction story. 6. What other elements of the story suggest that this is a serious, literary work rather than merely an entertaining yarn about three hapless hunters? One key element that suggest that “Hunters in the show” is a more serious literary work is the plot twist in the end.
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins Picking up from the last book in the end of The Hunger Games where Katniss and Peeta were going to eat the poisonous berries so they could both will. Doing that little stunt in front of the Capitals face makes President Snow furious, because it shows a weakness of the capitol. The President decides to visits Katniss and tells her that he doesn't believe that she and Peeta are actually in love, and knows that if the public finds out, then it will make the capitol look even worse than it already does. He also knows that Katniss is not in a real relationship with Peeta, because apparently someone was spying on Katniss while she was in the woods getting kissed by Gale. (Talk about bad timing) Therefore the President tells Katniss that she and Peeta have to get married to prove him they are really so madly in love as they had claimed.
Thoughtful laughter is define to be irrelevant to the scene, because muffins and romantic has no similarities in this scene. Thoughtful laughter makes you think of why Algy and jack are fighting over muffins. The Muffin scene was one of the funniest parts in the play, and it could have been to distract the reader. When I was reading this book, I was thinking of a boring book, but the muffin scene caught me off guard. I was thinking how this makes all men look like liar and incompetent.
This analogy was used in Holmes’ statement to justify the sentencing of this man to prison for issuing a pamphlet. Dershowitz argues that Holmes’ famous line about shouting out fire in a theatre was a tactic of rhetoric that works to clinch an argument to a non-careful listener. It sounds like it proves the point, but in reality is based on false logic and is irrelevant to the argument at hand. In reality, shouting “Fire!” in a crowded theater is less about free speech or speech at all, but the word when yelled is more like an alarm that goes off in the ears of bystanders, a stimulus. Whereas the defendant of the case wrote a long, thought-provoking argument, yelling “Fire!” is more like a jolt to immediate action and panic.
This shows that politicians have no real values as they are constantly changing their views. The image of white shows that the 'weasel' is trying to appear innocent as white is a colour of purity. Ironically, the politicians have no real moral values and are merely seeking an easy way to win votes. Duffy here comments on the way that politics becomes a game of words and disguises instead of being a matter of honesty. The italicised actions of the group, using the phrase ‘Hear, hear’ and laughing, represent the House of Commons as an institution fundamentally based upon a small group of ‘vicious hunters’ who hide the truth and offer nothing but an empty egg, a kind of mirage with promise of something wholesome but holding nothing but emptiness.
Not knowing what’s around the soldiers and the narrator makes them feel terrible. The concept of not knowing what’s going to happen always makes the soldiers believe that something horrible is going to happen. In the war, everything may happen in a single day. In chapter 4 ‘Back to the Round’, the narrator and company have to move around the trenches on their bellies because there is a sniper in the tree that causes a constant fear. Although they know there is a sniper, they still fear him because they cannot discern when he will shoot them.
