Answer:
The Lusitania
In early 1915, Germany introduced a policy of unrestricted submarine warfare in the Atlantic. This meant U-Boats were hunting and sinking merchant shipping without warning. The RMS Lusitania left New York on 1st May, 1915, bound for Liverpool. On 7th May it was spotted off the coast of Ireland by U-20 and torpedoed. Of 1,962 passengers, 1,198 lost their lives. Among the dead were 128 Americans, causing widespread outrage in the US.
Remember Belgium!
Following Germany’s invasion of neutral Belgium in 1914, stories began to circulate about atrocities committed against Belgian civilians. These stories, both true and exaggerated, were seized upon for propaganda. So-called “atrocity propaganda” spread far and wide, painting the Germans as a barbaric nation bent on ruthless, indiscriminate destruction. This propaganda was soon sweeping the US, firing anti-German sentiment.
American Loans
The US had a vested financial interest in the outcome of the war in Europe. American businesses and banks made huge loans to the Allies. If they didn’t win then they were unlikely to get their money back.
Reintroduction of Unrestricted Submarine Warfare
Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917. Knowing they risked provoking the United States into joining the war, Germany gambled on defeating the British before the US had a chance to mobilise. During February and March, several US cargo vessels were sunk without warning, resulting in the United States severing diplomatic ties with Berlin.
The Zimmerman Telegram
In January 1917, the German diplomatic representative in Mexico received a secret telegram penned by German Foreign Secretary Arthur Zimmermann. It proposed a secret alliance between Germany and Mexico, should the United States enter the war. If the Central Powers were to win, Mexico would be free to annex territory in New Mexico, Texas and Arizona. Unfortunately for Germany, the telegram was intercepted by the British and decrypted by Room 40. The British passed the document to Washington and it appeared on the front page of American newspapers on 1st March.
This combination of factors turned public opinion around. On 6 April, the United States declared war on Germany and began to mobilise. The first American troops arrived in Europe in June.

Review the following documents .How do these two accounts reflect certain points of view? Which source is more reliable and why? Explain your answer, supporting it with reasons and evidence from the documents.
The United States had one goal following the war—to expand its military and economic power across
Asia. On June 25, 1950, President Truman ordered the invasion of North Korea. The United States
manipulated the United Nations to build an army that included fifteen nations. This American army
marched across the 38th parallel and spread across the peninsula, bringing war to the banks of the Yula
River. To resist the Americans and defend China, the People's Volunteer Army joined the North Korean
army in repelling the American invasion.
After the division, North Korea attempted to overthrow South Korea's government. When this proved
impossible, the North Korean communists began to prepare themselves for war while pretending to
negotiate peacefully.
On June 25, 1950, the north began its invasion of the south. The south was taken by surprise, but the
armies of South Korea fought bravely to defend their liberties. This action moved the United Nations
Security Council to declare the invasion by the north illegal and a threat to peace. A decision was made to
help the south, and a UN army, led by the United States, Britain, and France, joined the South Korean
forces in an effort to repel the invasion.
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
Obviously these are two highly contrasting views and accounts of the Korean War. The first account is supportive of the position of the North and her communist allies, primarily China, whilst the second supports the view of the South supported by the UN and US.
Generally speaking the second version would be seen as more reliable based on the history of events.
In terms of reflecting different views/accounts of events, the first article clearly sees it as an act of American aggression to secure vital interests in the area, whilst the second article sees Western involvement as a direct consequence of North Korean aggression in invading South Korea in 1950.
The intervention of UN forces, according to the first account is a reflection of aggressive US foreign policy in using the UN, "manipulating", to use force to secure its own interests. This led to the intervention of China. However according to the second article UN involvement was a legitimate response to an act of unwarranted aggression by the North against the South.
If we look at what happened, in June 1950 North Korea invaded and occupied South Korea. Within a few months almost the whole of the South was occupied. This invasion was illegal and unprovoked so the accounts in the second article appear to be more accurate.
However one of the main reasons for US involvement was to protect Japan which it saw as its most important ally against the spread of communism in South East Asia. Therefore in article 1, there is legitimacy in saying that the US was protecting its interests in becoming involved, and in legitimizing its action through the UN.
The intervention of the UN drove the North Koreans back as far as the Yula river in the south, as stated in article 1 which led to the intervention of the Chinese, again as stated in article 1.
The two texts show different views on the behavior of North Korea during the division of the Koreas. Both have the same level of reliability.
Why do the two research sources have the same degree of reliability?Because both are secondary research sources.Because both don't show proven evidence.The first text shows that North Korea had no intention of attacking South Korea, but wanted to defend its territory and defend China from American occupation.
The second text shows that North Korea invaded South Korea to dominate the region and exploit its habitats.
None of the sources show substantiated evidence nor reports from primary sources, making them equal in reliability.

What type of religion is Judaism ?Monotheistic or polytheistic
Answer:
Monotheistic
Explanation:
Judaism, monotheistic religion developed among the ancient Hebrews.
It is history that provides the key to an understanding of Judaism, for its primal affirmations appear in early historical narratives. Thus, the Bible reports contemporary events and activities for essentially religious reasons. The biblical authors believed that the divine presence is encountered primarily within history. God’s presence is also experienced within the natural realm, but the more immediate or intimate disclosure occurs in human actions. Although other ancient communities also perceived a divine presence in history, the understanding of the ancient Israelites proved to be the most lasting and influential. It is this particular claim—to have experienced God’s presence in human events—and its subsequent development that is the differentiating factor in Jewish thought.

Which of the following organizations have an impact on how the U.S. treats prisoners captured during a military operation? Select all that apply. United Nations Geneva Conventions Chemical Weapons Convention Biological Weapons Convention International Committee of the Red Cross
Correct answers are A. Nations Geneva Conventions and Committee of the Red Cross.
Explanation
The Geneva Conventions are the set of legal norms that regulate how armed conflicts can be fought and attempt to limit their effects.

Specifically, the third Geneva Convention deals with the issues of prisoners of war and their rights. Additionally, it can be stated that the International Committee of the Red Cross is a supranational organization that aims to provide humanitarian aid to those affected during an armed conflict based on the Geneva Conventions. Therefore, the correct answer is the A. Nations Geneva Conventions and D. Committee of the Red Cross.
