Answer:

The attack deeply shocked the American people and led directly to the entry of the United States in World War II, both in the theaters of war in Europe and the Pacific. The day after this offensive, December 8, the United States declared war on the Empire of Japan. The internal support in North America for the non-intervention in the world conflict, which had been strong, disappeared, while the clandestine assistance to the United Kingdom was replaced by a full alliance. Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy declared war on the United States on December 11, in response to operations launched against the Asian power of the Axis.

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Historically, the primary reason the lines leading to Birkenau were never attacked was due to a lack of political resolve to do so, and not because bombing operations were unimportant. When the gas chambers were operational in 1941, the majority of the concentration camps were located out from the range of Allied bombers and German air defenses.

The Allied Forces knew about the detention camps by June 1944, and the German air defenses were on the decline. Bomber efficiency is improving. The railroads were still intact. Every day, thousands of Jewish are processed in these centers.

Historians agree that the Nazis would still murder the Jews even without the concentration camps. The mobile death squads were among the most prolific extermination organizations of the Nazis. Even though the bombs wouldn't halt the murders, the Allied focused on the bombings of military camps and industrial areas in order to undermine Germany's war operations.

Explanation:

Railways were an important component of the Holocaust and Nazi activities. Information on the camps was only accessible after the war had ended. They felt that the costs would exceed the advantages of bombing the railroads. Millions of Jews had already been gassed.

Had the Allied Forces simply bombed the railroads once they had the intelligence, many lives might have been spared. They only needed political will and a commitment to social duty, regardless of the personal dangers, in order to put a stop to the camps' deadly activities.

Soviet forces were the major Allied soldiers in the Eastern Front, where they committed genocide of their own people. Stalin also has anti-Semitic inclinations. We may be certain that he didn't bomb the railroads and let the Germans continue to use the extermination camps.

Hope this helps, if so would you mind saying thanks?

What was the outcome of the Worcester v. Georgia court case? A. The Cherokees won the right to stay on their land and were deeme
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:  A. The Cherokees won the right to stay on their land and were deemed an independent nation.

<em>(That was a hollow victory though -- see last paragraph of explanation below.)</em>

<em />

Explanation:

The 1832 case, Worcester v. Georgia, ruled unconstitutional a Georgia law requiring non-Native Americans requiring a license from the state to be on Native American land.  In responding to the case, the Supreme Court asserted that the federal government is the sole authority to deal with a Native American nation.  From this Supreme Court assertion came the beginnings of tribal sovereignty within the United States for Native American nations -- that the US government would deal with them as domestic nations inside the United States.

The court case was named after Samuel Worcester, a Christian minister working among the Cherokee who was supportive of the Cherokee cause.  To block the activity of a man like Rev. Worcester, the state of Georgia passed a law prohibiting white persons to live within the Cherokee Nation territory without permission from the Georgia state government.  Worcester and other missionaries challenged this law, and the case rose to the level of a Supreme Court decision.  The decision by the Supreme Court, written by Chief Justice Marshall, struck down the Georgia law and reprimanded Georgia for interfering in the affairs of the Cherokee Nation.  Marshall wrote that Indian nations are "distinct, independent political communities retaining their original natural rights." 

But President Andrew Jackson chose not to enforce the court's decision.  He said at the time: "The decision of the Supreme Court has fell stillborn, and they find that it cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate."  He told the Cherokee that they would need to operate under the jurisdiction of the state of Georgia or else relocate.  This was a step in the direction of what became known as the "Trail of Tears," when the Cherokee were removed from Georgia and moved to territory in Oklahoma.
