Read FDR's press release. Then, answer the following questions (and no links or i'll report it) Based on the press release, what is FDR's expectation of how the war will end? What specific examples of his language indicate his beliefs about who will be victorious?

Soldiers themselves, world leaders, and the general population of other countries expressed shock at the degree of abuse inflicted on the Jews and other minorities after the war ended. This press release makes it clear that reports came in early, so what do you think contributed to the shock? Why was the discovery so difficult when reports were already enough to put together a panel to prosecute war criminals?

Consider how information usually got reported during WWII; how might the world's shock at the war crimes be related to the ways that Wiesel described his community being unprepared for the reality of relocation because of the reports they received about the war ending soon?

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
