They had no idea if they were going to continue to be a band in the future. Taking in a guy from outside the music business who, in addition, did not play by the industry rules had partially led them to this situation. The band and its team clearly did not follow Passman’s advice of effectively screening the sharks. The Record label industry was, at the same time, having problems of its own.

Meltzer, and Schmid n.p.). Anthrax is a good example of a biological weapon because it causes spores that will cause death or severe pain.

causes that led to World War Two, some of them being: The Treaty of Versailles, the rise of Japan as a world power, the rise of fascism in Italy and Germany, and The League of Nations. However, the main reason that the Second World War was inevitable was unquestionably due to the rise of Adolf Hitler. WWII was directly brought about by his actions in the 1930s. Even though the League of Nations had set measures in place to avoid this happening, they were unable to prevent the war due to the fascist thinking
Journey’s End is a play written in 1928, ten years after the war finally ended, it was based on the authors real life experiences and is very serious about the happenings of war.

It soon becomes apparent to the reader that all of the men, in Journey’s End, are struggling to cope with the war, and that they all have their own way of coping, Trotter, an
The traditional just war theory deals with two principles, jus ad bellum and jus in bello. These two principles are differentiated between each other in the way they deal with when justice is applied. In jus ad bellum, justice is questioned in when to go to war.

A philosophical belief is that these two principles are logically

Nobody wishes to go to war with another nation, the same nation, or any other type of organization that is fighting for what they believe in. For the same reasons though, when war is declared from one side to another, it is because both sides believe so deeply in what the change (or lack there of) that they want to see. Throughout history, there have been multiple wars waged on the grounds of religion. Of such wars, there are the Crusades, and the Protestant Wars of religion. The Crusades were

Augustine’s just war theory, jus ad bellum and jus in bello, provides a series of criteria of which, in theory, must be met in order for a war to be considered just. The criterion is then separated into two segments. Jus ad bellum refers to the morality surrounding going to war or when is going to war justified. Jus in bello refers to the moral conduct within war or how does one conduct a just war. When going to war and conducting war, these principles and guidelines must be followed or the morality
Just War War is a brutal act, often declared by people or countries that are power thirsty or looking to gain more land. Wars result in economically unstable countries, production of wastelands, and deaths of innocent people. With all of these consequences in mind, is there such a thing as a just war?

Some examples of war being necessary are The Revolutionary War, World War II, and The French and Indian War. The Revolutionary War is a prime example that war is necessary. The British had been unnecessarily taxing the colonists
The concept of “just war” dates way back to the inception of war itself. The just war theory was often brought up in wars for the consideration of innocent people who were not involved in the war. It was a way of keeping people from going beyond the limits that were set up for any particular war. We see this theory take place in the Bible where there is a moral stance that takes place for ethical reasoning. We too see this theory of just war take place within our government and from the higher powers
