He was charged by the House officially by two articles of impeachment, charging Clinton with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. On September 9, 1998, the special prosecutor submitted to Congress a 445-page, sexually graphic report. The Starr Report found “substantial and credible” evidence of presidential wrongdoing, prompting the House of Representatives on October 8 to begin a wide-ranging impeachment inquiry of the president. Thirty-one Democrats joined the Republicans in supporting the investigation. On December 19, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton became the second president to be impeached by the House of Representatives. The House officially approved two articles of impeachment, charging Clinton with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. House Speaker Newt Gingrich led the effort to impeach the president over the Lewinsky scandal—even though he himself was secretly engaged in an adulterous affair with a congressional staffer.

How do you think Jewish history shapes their culture?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Jewish history is very old and dynamic, tracing back to over 3,000 years.

A common theme in Jewish history has been the persecution that has been suffered by the Jewish people.

The Jewish people have often hold their ancestral homeland: Israel, but they have also been expelled from these lands several times.

Jewish history is also the history of the Jewish diaspora: for centuries, there have been Jews living all over Europe and the Middle East, even in other areas.

Finally, Jewish history also includes the history of the Holocaust, the genocide in which over 5 million Jews were killed during the Second World War.

For these reasons above, Jewish history shapes Jewish culture. It makes the Jewish people cohesive and protective of their own people, because of all the suffering they have been through.
