Violent clashes/civil war in the middle east

Answer 2.

In 1993, the situation was absolutely calm, to such an extent that Israelis without fear went shopping to Jenin and Gaza to buy fruits and vegetables and Arabs also could come from Gaza to Tel Aviv without any check posts. Then Israeli leaders, Itzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres, both of the Left- wing, decided that "shalom" ( peace) had already come, yielded to the pressure of another dreamer, lover of the young practicants, Bill Clinton - and signed the Oso accords.

The results were desastrous. The wave of the suicide attacks and other types of the terrorist attacks covered Israel. The Israeli people were enraged by the Oslo Accords but Rabin and Peres , well-protected by hundreds of body-guards, went on with their suicidal plan.

Now you can see the consequences.

The allies instead of providing a peace settlement based on the 14 point plan as Germany had though instead made the treaty very humiliating with the aim of keeping the Germans down.

The key points of the treaty that contributed to the conditions in Germany that lead to the rise of National Socialism are;

1. The war guilt clause

2. £6,600mil to be paid in reparations

3. Disarmament, The Rhineland was demilitarized the size of the army was limited, the navy was only allowed a handful of pre dreadnoughts and minor ships, as well as no air force and no submarines

4. Anschluss was forbidden and 14% of its land lost as well as all of Germany's colonies.

The war guilt clause angered many Germans and fueled the fires of the "stab in the back" conspiracy's theory.

Reparations made Germany poor, because of this many tended towards far right or far left parties. Failure to pay resulted in the french invasion of the Rhur region in 1923 further increasing hate for the treaty and the french.

The reduction of Germany's armed forces was also key for several reasons

1. It was highly embarrassing especially to a country that had years earlier been the greatest land power in the world. And to a very militaristic/ nationalistic country.

2. The weakening of the army meant that it was unable to control the militaristic wings of the Nazi and Communist parties forcing Papen to cut a deal with Hitler.

Hitler used the pretext of reuniting Germany to get back land and to attract votes.

The harshness of Versailles also made many conservatives in Britain and France feel sorry for Germany combined with war weariness and the fear of communism lead to the policy of appeasement.

It was too hard on Germany in requiring money to be paid by Germany to the allies.

There are 4 Geneva conventions (formed originally in Geneva, Switzerland) which set out a basis for humanitarian law and were last revised and expanded in 1949. The most well known is the third which relates to the treatment of prisoners of war. In addition there are also 3 protocols They are referred to as the "Geneva Conventions of 1949" or more commonly the "Geneva Conventions". Later conferences have added provisions prohibiting certain types of warfare and other issues on civil wars. Most of the countries of the world are signatories. They consist of 3 generic articles and then convention specific ones. They were started off by Henri Dunant following his experiences as a first hand witness to the horrors of war at the Battle of Solferino in 1859. The signatory countries have given the Red Cross (International Committee of the Red Cross) a mandate to protect the victims of international and internal armed conflicts including prisoners refugees and civilians. The most well known is article 3 and an extract states "Noncombatants, combatants who have laid down their arms, and combatants who are hors de combat (out of the fight) due to wounds, detention, or any other cause shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, including prohibition of outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment. The passing of sentences must also be pronounced by a regularly constituted court, affording all the judicial guarantees which are recognized as indispensable by civilized peoples."

The Treaty of Paris officially ended the Revolutionary War on September 3, 1783. It was signed in Paris by Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay, representing the United States, together with David Hartley, representing Great Britain. The 1783 Treaty was one of a series of treaties signed at Paris that also established peace between Great Britain and the allied nations of France, Spain, and the Netherlands.

Under the terms of the treaty, Britain recognized the independent nation of the United States of America. Britain agreed to remove all of its troops from the new nation. The treaty also set new borders for the United States, including all land from the Great Lakes on the north to Florida on the south, and from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River. The Unites States was also granted access to the fisheries off the coast of Newfoundland.

The United States agreed to allow British troops still in America to leave and also agreed to pay all existing money owed to Great Britain. The United States also consented not to persecute British loyalists still in America and to allow those that left America to return.

The Treaty of Versailles was a dictated settlement with no serious negotiations. The main purpose of the 'war guilt clause' was to lend some kind of justification to the reparations. It may well also have been the sincerely held view of at least some of the victors. The clause is at the beginning of the section on reparations.

The T of V was drawn up just after David Lloyd George had won an election in Britain, and in the election campaign he had promised to 'squeeze Germany till the pips squeak', to 'hang the Kaiser' and to make Britain 'a land fit for heroes'. The last of these promises was going to be very expensive to implement.

In the interwar period it was common in Germany to speak of the 'war guilt clause' as if it were the foundation of the entire treaty and as if had been formulated in order to humiliate Germany and turn it into a pariah. There's no evidence for this, and high number of the clause (#231 - out of 440) speaks against this. The aim was money and more money.

Perhaps not well noted, was that World War One ended up being radically different than everyone thought when it started. Politicians (and the public) throughout Europe assumed that the War would be like other European conflicts of the past century (in particular, both France and Germany saw it as a re-run of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870). That is, short, sharp, decisive, and over quickly with a very modest casualty count.

When it was revealed that the politicians had miscalculated, and that the "military geniuses" who had promised a short, decisive war were completely wrong, wholesale slaughter ruled.

So, a great deal of the Treaty of Versailles is about covering-their-ass on the part of Allied politicians. For, if Germany could be entirely blamed for the start of the War, it could be, by inference, be blamed for the massive deaths that had occurred.

So, in reality, the T of V blames Germany for the "excesses" of the War, and tries to recoupe the costs from Germany, all in hopes that the Allied public doesn't notice that much of the blame for the war (and the manner it was fought in) is really on the Allied politicians and military leadership.

Because they eventually started stealing land from the Cherokees.

Answer 2:

________________________________________________

The treaty of New Echota was intended to steal land from the Cherokee, even though the treay before that one promised that the US Government would not take any more land. The Cherokee tribe refused to sign the treaty, so the US Government asked a few US Citizens to sign it on behalf of the tribe (for money) and they did. The US Supreme court found that the treaty was invalid; but that did not stop the government from taking the land anyway.

It was a agreement that created to preserve the metric system. One organization was the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM); the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM); International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM).
It was a agreement that created to preserve the metric system.
The Treaty of the Meter (also known as the Metre Convention) is a treaty which created three organizations tasked with supervising the keeping of metric standards:

(1) International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM);
(2) General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM);
(3) International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM).

(The initialisms are derived from the French names for the organizations as the treaty was written in French.)

The BIPM is under the authority of the CGPM, and under the supervision of the CIPM.

The treaty was signed in 1875 and slightly revised in 1921. The system of units established by the treaty was later renamed the International System of Units (SI) in 1960.

There were 17 original signatories of the treaty, but this number grew to 52 by the start of 2009.
