Dirty bomb

Nuclear weapons have been prevalent in world society since WW2, however they also haven’t been used since the end of WW2 so it is questioned to what extent they are useful in society nowadays. Do they act as a good deterrence for to keep the peace between feuding nations, or do they cause more harm than good as at any point a ‘button’ could be pressed and world annihilation could happen? Supposedly the cold war was supposed to be the ending of the tension between the east and west however in…

knows the placement of the bomb? Elsthain admits that “the authorities are as close to 100 percent certain as human beings can be”5 that the terrorist knows where the bomb is. But close to 100 percent is not 100 percent. Torturing an innocent man, or even a guilty man with the possibility of failing to effectively stopping the crime should deter the authorities from committing such an act of moral depravity. But even if the man is guilty and knows the location of the bomb, how can those…

Why do people have different interpretations of the word “monster”? Some individuals, envision them as old, Greek mythological creatures. Others believe humanity is bombarded with monstrosity, as if it is a characteristic that we all carry, and very few utilize the meaning of “monster” as a societal or mental fear. I recognize the term as something more standard that many also conceptualize; as ginormous, snarling, blood-thirsty beasts. Beasts are the perfect perception of a monster. To depict…

enemy attacks. The Trenches were very dirty and smelly. It had many rodents, and animals that should not be in the trenches. Enemies would rush the trenches at any time of the day. The fighting style of trench warfare has been vowed never to be used again by all the countries and all the reasons make it easy to see why. First, how did they build over 25,000 miles of trenches (“The Great War”)? The British and French recruited…

extremely muddy. At Gallipoli the weather was extremely cold and it snowed causing numerous soldiers to suffer from frost bite. At Gallipoli the terrain was extremely hilly, with not many flat surfaces. The Western Front terrain was very unhygienic and dirty, the trenches were filled with mud causing terrible living conditions for the soldiers. The trenches on the Western Front were filled with rats that could grow up to the size of cats, lice, frogs and nits. These creators were responsible for…

It broke my heart to see children run to bomb shelters, and hear stories of mothers who lost their sons in battle. I witnesses the tragic effect of the Palestinian missiles in Beit Shemesh, a small city just outside Jerusalem. My group and I heard the siren signaling that we had 60 seconds to run into a bomb shelter. We all raced to the bomb shelter a feeling of fear clawing to us. Many people in my group were crying and praying. This is when…

One of Man’s strongest instincts is that to protect and provide for himself. In doing so however, he has created nuclear weapons and energy. From experiments with radium in the late 1800s, to the creation of weapons of mass destruction during World War Two and finally the more recent disasters from nuclear power plant meltdowns. Man has started out with good intentions, but in so doing, he may have doomed himself. In 1896, radioactivity was discovered by Henri Becquerel (Nobelprize.org). Upon…

Hey ho, Let's go! Have you ever noticed that the 80's were so full of bright, neon colors? Well, just before all the neon went on, the 70's were full of leather jackets and dark, dirty looking clothes. There was a major change in between the two decades. The beginning of the 70's were very dark and angry. This was because of the war and death going on because of it. This is going to talk about how the end of the Vietnam War affected the punk music in the 1970's. There was a lot going…

he gives us only his opinion that everything is changing. But in terms of anyone else’s opinion he frowns at them and acts as though the person who is giving the opinion is wrong. When Simple says that the bomb shelters won’t be for everyone, the narrator responds with, “”Absurd!” I said. “Bomb shelters will be for everyone””(211). This response says that the narrator believe that everything he says is the only truth that should be believed. This makes the narrator unreliable because he only…

At the start of the novel she believes that love matters and sex does not matter, but later on, she changes her stance by saying, “‘sex is just an activity, like anything else. It’s not dirty, it’s just two people playing with each other’s bodies. Like dancing. Like a game’” (Fowles 107). Her stance also changes toward G.P. with her view on sex as she becomes jealous of the women he has slept with as he is a womanizer. The jealousy that…
