Once upon a time, the most powerful nations of the world were engaged in enormous military buildup. On June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo, a Slavic nationalist fired a small pistol at Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand. This event began World War I, which left Germany war-ravaged, whilst ridiculous reparations kept the country impoverished. Sorely in need of any hope, many Germans put their faith in Adolf Hitler, who attempted genocide. Worldwide sympathy for Jewish peoples led to the establishment of Israel in Palestine, and subsequent U.S. support. This continuing support angered the Arab world for decades, culminating in thousands of civilian deaths on September 11, 2001. How is President Bush responding to the situation? See beginning.
