- 63: Hitler And World War I
- The ambition to unite Germany under ein Volk, ein Reich (one people, one empire) was the primary goal of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party from the beginning of World War I to the end of World War II.

- ... is to increase wages and influence other job conditions for its members” (Parkin, 1998,p.344). These labor unions can be divided into two types: craft unions and industrial unions (World, 1998). A craft union is “a union whose membership is restricted to workers who possess an identifiable skill” (Robinson, 1985,p. 69). These members tend to be better educated and trained, and more unified because of common interests (World, 1998).

- 66: Cold War
- Cold War My first inclination would be to answer the first question with a clear "YES". But come to think of it, the causes of war really have not changed at all, or at least very little. Rather than changes, there has been a shift in the causes. The cause of war which has dominated the last 50 years was the cause of ideology. However, due to the recent end of the Cold War, this cause of war, has significantly declined ...
- 67: Saddam, Iraq, And The Gulf War
- War, justifiable or not, is complete madness. It is hell.

- ... Not only that, but Mr. Graham has reached millions more through live televison, video and film. This has led Billy to be on the "Ten Most Admired Men in the World" from the Gallup Poll since 1955 a total of thirty-nine times.
