<u> A. Protection from arrest without cause</u>
The Petition of Right (1628) was a petition from the English Parliament to King Charles I, to put a halt on his abuses of power. <u>One of its provisions included protecting people from arrest without a just cause</u>. The other three provisions were that no taxation would be imposed without the consent of Parliament, no subject had to provide living quarters to soldiers and no martial law should be enacted in peacetime.
Answer: Hitler did not invent the hatred of Jews. Jews in Europe had been victims of discrimination and persecution since the Middle Ages, often for religious reasons. Christians saw the Jewish faith as an aberration that had to be quashed. Jews were sometimes forced to convert or they were not allowed to practise certain professions.
There are countless imaginative explanations for the reasons for Hitler's antisemitism. Hitler is said to be have been ashamed of his partly Jewish roots. Another explanation links his hatred of Jews to trauma caused by a poison gas attack in the First World War. Yet other theories suggest that Hitler had contracted a venereal disease from a Jewish prostitute. There are, however, no facts to support these explanations.
