The author considered the welcome sign ironic given that the sign bore the words “HELLO DEMOCRATS” yet the hall was surrounded by a steel fence capped with barbed wire, which was not congruent with the ideals of democrats and did not serve to ease the tensions surrounding the convention. Inside the fence were numerous security personnel that had been ordered to shoot to kill if need arose.

The welcome sign during the 1968 democratic national convention held in Chicago was considered as ironic or sarcastic because it boosts uneasiness to the member of Democrats. Drivers were called a strike, phones and elevators are functioning erratically. The whole area that surrounds the delegates can cause apprehension.

Why did stalin want britain and the united states to open a second front in france prior to 1944?
True [87]
Stalin wanted the US and Great Britain to open a second front in France because it would divide the German military. During the time of this statement, Germany's only real military threat came from the Soviet Union. With this in mind, Hitler had the ability to put a huge number of troops on the Soviet Union/German border.

However, if the US and Great Britain planned an invasion through France, that means Hitler would have to move hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, of troops to France. France, in relation to the Soviet Union, was over 1,000 miles away.

Forcing Germany to fight this two front war would decrease their chance of success.
