"If the war is lost, i don't care that my country is suffering i will not spill an alone tear ¡Nothing better deserves!" Adolf Hitler

Hitler served in France and Belgium in the 16th Bavarian Reserve Regiment (called Regiment List after its first commander), ending the war as a Gefreiter (equivalent at the time to a lance corporal in the British and private first class in the American armies). He was a runner, one of the most dangerous jobs on the Western Front, and was often exposed to enemy fire. He participated in a number of major battles on the Western Front, including the First Battle of Ypres, the Battle of the Somme, the Battle of Arras and the Battle of Passchendaele. The Battle of Ypres (October 1914), which became known in Germany as the Kindermord bei Ypern (Massacre of the Innocents) saw approximately 40,000 men (between a third and a half) of the nine infantry divisions present killed in 20 days, and Hitler's own company of 250 reduced to 42 by December. Biographer John Keegan has said that this experience drove Hitler to become aloof and withdrawn for the remaining years of war.
Hitler was twice decorated for bravery. He received the Iron Cross, Second Class, in 1914 and Iron Cross, First Class, in 1918, an honour rarely given to a Gefreiter. However, because the regimental staff thought Hitler lacked leadership skills, he was never promoted to Unteroffizier (equivalent to a British corporal). Other historians say that the reason he was not promoted is that he was not a German citizen. His duties at regimental headquarters, while often dangerous, gave Hitler time to pursue his artwork. He drew cartoons and instructional drawings for an army newspaper. In 1916, he was wounded in either the groin area or the left thigh during the Battle of the Somme, but returned to the front in March 1917. He received the Wound Badge later that year. A noted German historian and author, Sebastian Haffner, referring to Hitler's experience at the front, suggests he did have at least some understanding of the military.
On 15 October 1918, Hitler was admitted to a field hospital, temporarily blinded by a mustard gas attack. The English psychologist David Lewis and Bernhard Horstmann suggest the blindness may have been the result of a conversion disorder (then known as hysteria). Hitler said it was during this experience that he became convinced the purpose of his life was to "save Germany." Some scholars, notably Lucy Dawidowicz, argue that an intention to exterminate Europe's Jews was fully formed in Hitler's mind at this time, though he probably had not thought through how it could be done. Most historians think the decision was made in 1941, and some think it came as late as 1942.
Two passages in Mein Kampf mention the use of poison gas:
At the beginning of the Great War, or even during the War, if twelve or fifteen thousand of these Jews who were corrupting the nation had been forced to submit to poison-gas . . . then the millions of sacrifices made at the front would not have been in vain.
These tactics are based on an accurate estimation of human weakness and must lead to success, with almost mathematical certainty, unless the other side also learns how to fight poison gas with poison gas. The weaker natures must be told that here it is a case of to be or not to be.
Hitler had long admired Germany, and during the war he had become a passionate German patriot, although he did not become a German citizen until 1932. Hitler found the war to be 'the greatest of all experiences' and afterwards he was praised by a number of his commanding officers for his bravery. He was shocked by Germany's capitulation in November 1918 even while the German army still held enemy territory. Like many other German nationalists, Hitler believed in the Dolchstoßlegende ("dagger-stab legend") which claimed that the army, "undefeated in the field," had been "stabbed in the back" by civilian leaders and Marxists back on the home front. These politicians were later dubbed the November Criminals.
The Treaty of Versailles deprived Germany of various territories, demilitarised the Rhineland and imposed other economically damaging sanctions. The treaty re-created Poland, which even moderate Germans regarded as an outrage. The treaty also blamed Germany for all the horrors of the war, something which major historians such as John Keegan now consider at least in part to be victor's justice: most European nations in the run-up to World War I had become increasingly militarised and were eager to fight. The culpability of Germany was used as a basis to impose reparations on Germany (the amount was repeatedly revised under the Dawes Plan, the Young Plan, and the Hoover Moratorium). Germany in turn perceived the treaty and especially, Article 231 the paragraph on the German responsibility for the war as a humiliation. For example, there was a nearly total demilitarisation of the armed forces, allowing Germany only six battleships, no submarines, no air force, an army of 100,000 without conscription and no armoured vehicles. The treaty was an important factor in both the social and political conditions encountered by Hitler and his Nazis as they sought power. Hitler and his party used the signing of the treaty by the "November Criminals" as a reason to build up Germany so that it could never happen again. He also used the "November Criminals" as scapegoats, although at the Paris peace conference, these politicians had had very little choice in the matter.

Repercusions for the teenagers due to the technology

The young people has being affected since the personal computer, Ipods, Mp3 and television was invented.

Technology has reduced the skills to learn, because it is very easy to get information from the internet. And not only that, the young people now waste a lot of time chatting and surfing at the internet, in pages like Facebook, Metroflog, Myspace, etc.

Is very easy to search for porno pages too, and the young people visit alot of pages like that.

We have to find a method to make better the young people and not only trash.

Technology has afected the young society. This creates estereotypes, that young people follow , and the consecuence is that young people loose their personality and identidy.

Sometimes by the way of the internet pages sometimes, the teenagers are discriminated and make they feel with down low self. Sometimes this end baddly with teenagers hurting himself and sometimes this end killing himself.

The teenagers now pass less family time because if they arent playing with the nintendo they are in the computer. And this is not only with the young people.

When a family get together at the dinner time, now they dont have quality time with each other because they are watching the television.

But one of the good things of the internet, is that the information is really easy to get and you can know things of other countries.

We use a lot the technology right now, examples of the technology are the Mp3 players, Pc's and laptops, Ipod, cellphones, etc.

All this things help us on some things. For example, we can save time and money searching for information.

The objetive of technology is to make the life easier, but this make consecuences, so the people is being lazy, so we have to learn now to use the technology and not depend only for this.

Love is not about GENDER, Homosexuality

We make this Blogspot by petition of miss Chela (our english teacher ;D), this will talk about some problems that our real world has and this affect everybody, everyday.

The first topic that we want to talk is about the homosexuality and the problems that the homosexuals have with the reject of the ignorant people who doesn't understand them.
Homosexuality refers to romantic or sexual attraction or behavior among members of the same sex.

But although everybody is free to think and do whatever they want, still in our age are people who discriminates the homosexuals, they give the name of homophobic.

The problems with the homosexuals didn't start with the people of our age , a lot time before this people was rejected and they usually were scared to show those ideality so they hide them way to think.

Before 70's the scientist believed in homosexuality as a sickness and the homosexual was sick or mad. But now we are sure that they aren't sick it's was only a different mode to think.

In 1981 when the AIDS started,they thought that a group of homosexuals who had a active sexual act betweend they started the aids and that they infected the others. Absually the first famous people to died of aids was Freddy Mercury who has already "closeted" to the society but that the homosexuals started the sickness it's not so true because not only the homosexuals have aids.

Some investigators think that the homosexuals are people that only want to complain theirself.

In our age won't be a factor to discriminate or feel disagree about this people, it supoused that in this time the people be more openminded and we can understand and tolerate the different kinds of think.

Before our age, the homosexuals were punished for the law and they couldn´t express their love with all the people but in this time we should be respectful and not make a judge if we dont know about what that people have that kind of preferences.

The society is more openminded of the homosexuals, they are a little bit more accepted of the way they was before and they now can get closeted and show the world who they really are without the necessity of be hide. A lot of people now can be whatever they want without all the discimination.

But although the time has change in our age still be mean people who discriminated the people homosexual. Bullying they, insulting and make them feel bad and rejected.

We think that anyone can choose whatever they want to be, is their life and God made them free. No one can choose for them, they are free and we have to respect them and be more openminded.
