Answer:
D. Iron Curtain
Explanation:
After the end of the second world war, the iron curtain was a political boundary that separated Europe into two different areas. The iron curtain had two sides, the East side and the West side. the Soviet union influenced those on the East side, while the West side had NATO member countries as well as some countries that were neutral.
The iron curtain was a political, military and ideological barrier which the East of Europe used to separate itself from having open contact with the West. It was Sir Churchill Winston who made the Iron Curtain speech given the behaviors of those in the Eastern part of the continent.
Answer: True
Explanation: The Supreme Court admitted that it is haphazard to treat similar things differently and that mandatory death penalty statutes eliminated this problem, but also reckless to treat two different things the same way. In essence, to impose the same penalty on all convicted murderers, even though all defendants
are different, is just as capricious as imposing a penalty randomly.
To relieve this problem, some sentencing guidelines became necessary. This gave rise to the guided discretion statutes that set standards for juries and judges to
use when deciding whether to impose the death penalty. The Court reasoned that, guided discretion statutes struck a reasonable balance between giving the jury some discretion and allowing it to consider the defendant's background and character and the circumstances surrounding the crime.
